Backup via rsync routine details, pls.

Steve Stringer | Jan 21 2008

In MacBreak Weekly 73, Merlin quickly mentioned an rsync-based routine that he uses that is proscribed by someone named "JWC".

Could Merlin (or anyone) please provide details? I'm always looking for a better way to skin the backup cat.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
