thebigraceon Arq (Mac backup) now works with Glacier

Great work from the founder. Arq is some really great software, highly recommended from experience - now to see what it's like on Glacier :/

thebigraceon Dolphins, and the right side of history

I am a vegetarian and agree with most of the article up until the very last sentence - "where would you have stood on the issue of slave labour" or words to that effect.

I feel like that confuses the issue and makes it easier to argue against - humans are very clearly different to dolphins and equating the two does noone any favours.

thebigraceon Remind HN: Vote

Agree 100%. Even if your vote doesn't matter, spend a tiny portion of your day to be counted.

thebigraceon Side projects

A side project doesn't need customers, a side project doesn't need money, a side project just needs to be something that you want to do. If it makes money, great! If not, it doesn't matter because you are doing it for yourself and noone else.
