jelkner | mulbahkolleh__, are you here?> | 15:29 |
---|---|---|
jelkner | here? | 15:29 |
mulbahkolleh__ | I'm good and you Jeff | 15:30 |
jelkner | great to see you | 15:34 |
jelkner | i am totally *flustered* today | 15:34 |
jelkner | since so many things are going wrong at once | 15:35 |
jelkner | mulbah, we (and by "we" i mean NOVA Web and Jetro Web) will need skilled system admins if we are to succeed. | 15:35 |
jelkner | We unfortunately are still a bit weak in that department. | 15:35 |
jelkner | mulbah, when i checked my email this morning, there were dozens of emails automatically generated by the linode system | 15:36 |
jelkner | saying that we had a server using more than 90% cpu utilization for a sustained period of time. | 15:36 |
jelkner | both our sysadmins, tony and luis, are full time students | 15:37 |
jelkner | so they often are not available to fix emergency problems | 15:37 |
jelkner | we need that in place | 15:38 |
jelkner | or we won't make it as an IT business | 15:38 |
mulbah | so you want me to work on that | 15:38 |
jelkner | do you think you are ready? | 15:39 |
jelkner | i think you should continue working on your linux+ | 15:39 |
jelkner | i don't want to "throw you in the deep end and ask you to swim" ;-) | 15:40 |
jelkner | better to take swimming lessons first! ;-) | 15:40 |
jelkner | but we need swimmers, and SOON! | 15:40 |
jelkner | i'm still waiting to see a green circle by your user in irc | 15:41 |
jelkner | you should focus on that! | 15:41 |
jelkner | i am trying to give you appropriate tasks | 15:41 |
jelkner | when you show me you can complete them, i'll know you're ready for more | 15:41 |
mulbah | okay | 15:45 |
mulbah | ledmer and I will be working by 10:00PM my time to complete the bot | 15:45 |
mulbah | then I will start on that task | 15:46 |
mulbah | there server stuff | 15:46 |
tboimah | Good day jelkner and mulbah | 15:53 |
tboimah | I was just checking in, I am glad to you guys here | 15:53 |
tboimah | *see | 15:53 |
*** freena has quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity) | 15:57 | |
jelkner | Hi tboimah | 16:01 |
jelkner | i was just telling mulbah how it important it is that we continue to develop our skills, and SOON! | 16:02 |
jelkner | we aren't really where we need to be yet | 16:02 |
jelkner | and i'm talking NOVA Web here, not just Jetro Web | 16:02 |
jelkner | we have a huge opportunity with our first CPA contract | 16:03 |
jelkner | *IF* we are able to deliver (and that still remains to be seen), it could potentially be the break we've always needed | 16:03 |
jelkner | but we have to deliver | 16:03 |
jelkner | such a delicate balance this all is | 16:03 |
jelkner | we can't develop skills without the resources to give us the time we need to develop our skills | 16:04 |
jelkner | and we can't get the resources we need without revenue from customers | 16:04 |
tboimah | sure! | 16:04 |
jelkner | and we can't get revenue from customers without SKILL! :-( | 16:04 |
jelkner | so it's a bit of a catch-22 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catch-22_(logic) ) | 16:05 |
jelkner | but we are trying to work through it. | 16:05 |
jelkner | i just hope the Gods smile favorably upon us and we get the breaks we need | 16:06 |
tboimah | sure | 16:06 |
jelkner | i'm convinced success is 80 to 90 % hard work and dedication | 16:06 |
tboimah | That is what we all are working to was. | 16:06 |
jelkner | but it is 10 to 20 percent pure fortune | 16:06 |
jelkner | the trick is being ready when fortune smiles | 16:07 |
jelkner | yet tboimah | 16:07 |
jelkner | that is what we are working on | 16:07 |
jelkner | tboimah, are you aware of the CPA contract? | 16:07 |
tboimah | Not really I am just hearing it from you | 16:07 |
jelkner | you may want to spend a little time learning about it | 16:08 |
jelkner | because it could be the opportunity we have always been waiting for | 16:08 |
tboimah | sure, I will be glad to do that | 16:08 |
jelkner | i can answer your questions too | 16:08 |
jelkner | have you seen their website? | 16:08 |
tboimah | please send the url to the website please | 16:09 |
jelkner | https://www.cpa.coop/ | 16:09 |
tboimah | Thanks! | 16:09 |
jelkner | after you check out their website, i'd be glad to let you know why i am so hopeful about our relationship with them | 16:10 |
jelkner | anyway, i need to get ready for my next class | 16:10 |
jelkner | i'll be in the #jetrowebdev channel tomorrow at 12 noon your time | 16:11 |
tboimah | Okay! | 16:11 |
jelkner | see you both soon! | 16:11 |
tboimah | sure! have a nice day teaching | 16:11 |
