Time for a new Hard Soon for me. This time around it’s some more infrastructure-related things that are kind of apropos:

S3: move our graph image storage out of the local file system and into amazon s3
LINODES: move staging to its own server & do other migration / upgrade tasks before / around linode scheduled maintenance in the next two weeks.

#188

Is that support zero again?

[[confirmed! and paid]]

#189

Can’t see the data on it, but it looks like S3/Linode fell off

[[confirmed! paid $5]]

#190

Support zero derailed maybe? Is this how it works?

[[confirmed! paid $30]]

#191

S3/Linode again

[[confirmed! paid $10]]

#192

This procession of serial derailments is what I refer to as the ‘month of wasted awesomeness’, while the pledge builds up to a level that you pay attention to. For me, it’d be the biggest reason to sign up to Beemium, so that you can create goals that have a more immediate OMG factor.

#195

S3 and Linode I think

[[confirmed! another $30 to @nevan; paid]]

#197

Did b/sptzero derail on 10/21?

[[i just zoomed it in to check and it looks like no; must’ve eked by? @bee?]]
