My Google Nest detect just announced that there was smoke in the basement. I ran down there to find nothing. It was a false alarm however nothing was logged in the app? ?? Kind of scary…

I am giving away the UniFi Hi-Capacity Aggregation (USW-Pro-Aggregation) that was also featured in today's video. This is a great working switch that I actually bought used and want to pass it along to someone else rather than selling it. Details in Discord (in bio)

I ignored “Buy Once, Cry Once.”.Spent $2,857 on 4 switches over time….Then $2,742 on the one I should’ve bought first.

So many comments about not wearing a hat and glasses in the last one. Everything from losing my nerd credibility to thinking that it’s an AI avatar. Thanks for noticing and the laughs guys! These made my day! Also, ZFS is awesome! Have a good one!

I tested how much a special metadata VDEV can actually speed up ZFS. Turns out it makes directory browsing faster, snappier containers, and a smart use of NVMe. I built a test script, ran benchmarks, and walk through it all in @TrueNAS .

Does anyone know why Amazon insists that you use a gift card before your regular payment type? It's super annoying to change this every single time I buy something and I have been doing it for years.

I really like fixing bugs. There’s something about that instant gratification, especially when you get confirmation from a user and the metrics agree. This one’s extra satisfying. Redis memory usage down, and with it, our cloud costs too!
