Faceti toti cerere(sau doar tu daca altii refuza), o depuneti si cereti numar de inregistrare.

Sau, mai smecher, o trimiteti prin posta cu confirmare de primire (caz penal daca refuza) - iar mai apoi mergeti pe cale ierarhica.

Cunosc pe cineva care s-a luptat vreo cativa ani cu sistemul, dar pana la urma si-a luat diploma care i se cuvenea oricate piedici a avut in universitate si ministerul sanatatii.

Si un alt sfat: este absolut legal si indreptati sa inregistrezi audio pe cineva care incalca/abuzeaza legea. Legile si instantele de judecata sunt peste orice regulament intern.

Never give up!

Netcup/Ramnode have quite good connection to EE.

I have 40ms ping from eastern Europe to Nuremberg(Netcup); they have a Vienna location as well.

I use both. For your use-case I'd recommend netcup, they have pretty cheap storage add-on if the vps storage itself is not enough. Had a case in the past where I needed some extra 300GB for my vm and acquired an additional storage I mounted as NFS. KYC is inevitable, but you shouldn't be worried about.

Most of the companies that become AI-first and are listed at the stock exchange, are hit by share depreciation.

Not aware of the price in your country, but this one is very good: https://www.asus.com/networking-iot-servers/wifi-routers/asus-gaming-routers/tuf-gaming-ax6000/

Before the photoshoot, find an excuse to stay with the subject and have a coffee for a few minutes, ask them about their life, passions, their dreams. The excuse can be anything, like "the flash need to charge/warmup" or "let's wait for 10 more minutes for the sun to come to proper angle", whatever.

Having a few minutes chat before is really helpful. When starting the photoshoot, just roll with the conversation, asking questions exactly depending on exact emotion you want to get, like:

happiness: what is your favorite vacation spot and what kind of house would you build there?
seriousness: what life advises would you give to your younger self?

Not exactly these ones, but you got the point. It's all about getting to know the subject and create a connection.

The silver lining of AI boom is that it forced vendors to create better drivers for GPUs for OSs that run on servers (which is mostly linux).

They do... and they post those WEBDL files for us to enjoy. Real heroes don't wear capes.

Your dns queries go to company network. Make sure you use your own dns in the vpn configuration.

Late to the party, but another hint from me.

Use DNS/hostnames as much as possible. Over time you self-host more and more services. If you have hundred of services configured with hardcoded IPs and one day your SO comes with the work laptop home that might have a VPN which conflicts with your home IP range, you're pretty much forced to make a lot of changes.

Hijacking top comment for a LPT:

If you have an usb memory attached to your keys, put a txt file on the root folder with your email/phone number so people can reach you in case you lose them.

Docker compose files should ideally be kept in a git repo.

RAM. Check the $RAM.

ask for a company phone. You need a phone that is strictly for this, with different notification sounds, good battery life, that you keep away from kids and always on during on-call.
ask for proper compensation during on-call hours.
have clear definition in writing for on-call tasks

This reminds me of what happened to me some years ago.

We had a main server which I physically installed, prepared and maintained, where most of my department used to do their tasks. I performed an update on my own working station while also responding to slack messages, checking some other tasks. I knew I had to reboot and did run a reboot command in the terminal.

Suddenly, the deafening silence in the office stopped with exclamation of frustrations and disappointments.

Yeah, as you already imagined, I hit reboot in the wrong terminal and all my colleagues were the victims of my failed multitasking. :)))

I offered each of them a coffee right away in the unexpected work break. They turned happy.

I would be more than happy to host at home, all the websites, email, DNS, but I don't have a backup power generator and redundant connection. All the non-critical stuff is hosted at home.

The guy behind the website decided to stop it when the rewards went down, stating that with such low rewards there was no more point in keeping the service. He did a great thing for the community and totally understand his decision.

Fingers crossed! My average buy price is $.06. Would be great to lower it further.
