Learning how to configure network settings on Ubuntu server.
Fun with /etc/network/interfaces file?
No. Files within
/etc/netplan/. Doesn't look too tough; just something I have to become familiar.netplan, that's new to me. Guess I have some brushing up to do.
Yeah, Netplan replaced ifupdown as the default configuration utility starting with Ubuntu 17.10 Artful.

Just hired one person on Tuesday to replace someone on leave for a few months. Then someone quit yesterday, so back to hiring again.

Taking snapshots of Vultr VMs prior to running updates.

Headed to East Atlanta to buy pickles from the local pickle wizard. He's doing a pop-up shop at a newish brewery, so good times are ahead.

I would have thought that 'Pickle Wizard' is a term reserved for people who are rather talented at getting themselves in a pickle

Tickets, nothing but helpdesk tickets for me.

Dealing with carriers. When you have nobody in an office for weeks, then suddenly people show up and d'oh, the Internet isn't working! Yeah that kind of week already.

Just registered for Red Hat Summit 2021. It's a free virtual conference again this year in April and June.

Hard to believe that they are bothering to still have a summit. The meeting of "inconsequential" Linux.
How long do we think Red Hat will still even be a thing now that IBM seems to be reconsidering their place in their ecosystem. My guess, Red Hat's days are numbers. Long but numbered. They never quite fit IBM's vision and IBM is definitely not seeing them as the valuable product that they did a year ago.
My guess is that the summit will be primarily trying to convince people that they are still relevant.

Probably so. Last year's summit was more cheerleading than training for me. I still enjoyed the content though, even if much of it was product demos.

You might find this interesting if you haven't already read it.

https://www.theregister.com/2021/01/26/killing_centos/Yeah, I've seen all that. To me it all reads the same: IBM doesn't see Red Hat as strategic and they are taking the first step of redirecting investment towards somewhere else because to them, Ubuntu has already won and it isn't a fight worth investing in.
