Plus Shopify and GitHub must drive most development of Rails so it’s basically an in-house dependency to some extent. I know that’s simplifying things.
Users care they just don’t know why many modern websites are bad websites. Every website is now an app whether that actually makes it better UX or not.
But I would still prefer not to be hit by any Meteors.
I have a fondness for Tarsnap and Arq, but I find Data Backup 3 from ProsoftEngineering to be one of the best for doing local backups. At the end of a day, I just toss in a 64 GB USB Key (with FileVault Encryption), and no matter how much data I've created, it usually is less than 10 seconds for a full versioned backup. SuperDuper Clone about once every couple weeks.
I originally quit BackBlaze because it fired up my CPU to 100%, no matter how much time I spent trying to tweak it, but now I'm running into the same issue with CrashPlan which, after a couple years, has started constantly scanning my filesystem, forcing me to sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.crashplan.engine.plist, and then remembering to sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.crashplan.engine.plist before I go to bed to let it run overnight.
What is it about Crashplan not letting you just shutdown everything from within the application.
I have to fly or take a ferry to get to an Apple Store. There isn't one on Vancouver Island. So it's great when you can get to one, but if you can't the support is not so good.
Please put dates on things that are published. It can be important information for readers. Leaving off dates is frustrating and doesn't make the content any fresher in any way.
I have the fastest upload available in my area (5 Mbps) and my initial backup may have taken a month or two for something to the tune of 900 GB. You certainly don't need 1 Gbps to backup remotely but 500 Kbps might not be quite enough.
