Browsing Fiverr I see all these social media manager gigs.

Can these people really do something useful for a startup?

Is the USLC always updated with the latest books?

What would be the legal background of using their index?

What is the main feature of Goodreads?

Is it discussing new books?

If so, what is the reason people want to discuss new books? Anybody here who does it?

If so: Why do you do it? And do you do it before or after you read it?

I know about them. But I would have to root my phone to install them. And that means trusting some binary blob from someone on the internet. So I would not do it.

    some of the function names make
    me want to stab people

What would be an example?

    My only real gripe with PHP is
    the annotation syntax

What do you mean? Afaik there is no "annotation syntax" in PHP. Could it be that you confuse what certain frameworks and IDEs do with PHP, the language?

No, I can not remember having a race condition regarding startup scripts.

By that logic, no mistakes can ever be criticized.

I explained, why systemd is a step in the wrong direction in mutiple ways. That has nothing to do with habbits.

Everything I know about systemd is bad.

When I want to write a script that runs on startup, I expect that I can just put (or link) it in some directory where the scripts are that get started on startup. Or that there is one main script that calls all scripts that are intended to be startet on startup.

I do not want to write a "service" that has some "only run once and then discard" flag or whatever.

When I want to look at logs, I want to use the tools I like. less, grep, tail etc. I do not want to dabble with some binary format and its tooling.

When I want to start or stop a service, I want to call a script that does that. A script which I can look at and see what it does. Like /etc/init.d/apache2. I do not want to execute some magic command like "service apache start" which I have to guess or look up and which gives me no clue about what it does.

Easier said then done if that would mean synchronizing database and filesystem that is heavily written to.

Is there no way at all to reach Amazon EC2 instances in us-east-1 or is just the default route to the internet broken?

Is there any way for the owners of the instances to reach them?
