I've had a lot of requests for this series and I am excited to be kicking it off.

Veterinarians and vet clinics need to carefully evaluate how they will purchase and use their clinical information systems in their respective practices. This is a decision that should be headed by IT to filter inappropriate solutions from being short listed and to keep predatory vendors from gaining direct access to vets to attempt to sell products without going through a proper vetting process. If you are looking for veterinary IT support whether for decision making at this high level, supporting PIMs you already have in place, supporting desktops, servers, firewalls, printers, etc. talk to our friends at CCWTechnology, the veterinary IT specialists. https://ccwtechnology.com/ If you'd like to support me directly, please buy me a coffee (or a few) at: https://buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller/ My book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".

So many companies advertise a fake email service as "secure email" and use a fake fear that email isn't secure to try to sell people on it. Scamming people, lies, and social engineering are *not* how you provide true security. What exactly is "secure email", do we need it, and why is it a problem? We should probably stop using it altogether. Today, we are going to look at why. ------------------ Hire me or my team: sales@ntg.co ------------------ To directly support the channel, every "coffee" really helps: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller ------------------ I also wrote a book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".

If you've ever tried to buy web hosting for yourself or your company you have probably encountered a rather surprising problem - that there just aren't any good web hosting companies. There is a plethora of hosting options out there but do any of them even attempt to take into consideration your unique hosting needs or technology stack? Do any consult with you to guide you on how best to deploy? Do any integrate with all of your technology to provide good hosting? In today's episode we are going to examine real world market pressures and explain why it is unlikely that you will ever find good hosting, why this will not change, and why it is no problem whatsoever. And in doing so will demonstrate how best to approach getting the web hosting that you need! ------------------ Hire me or my team: sales@ntg.co ------------------ To directly support the channel, every "coffee" really helps: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller ------------------ I also wrote a book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".

Remember disk partitions? Hopefully they sound like some legacy concept you shouldn't have to worry about today. But many IT pros don't even realize that the were long ago replaced. ------------------ Hire me or my team: sales@ntg.co ------------------ To directly support the channel, every "coffee" really helps: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller ------------------ I also wrote a book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".

A somewhat famous Linux certification trick question used on many exams is this: what is the minimum number of partitions necessary to install Linux. Watch to learn why this isn't a valid question, why it is a trick, and how every exam gets it wrong and how this has exposed the complete lack of oversight, professional review and even internal review in the certification process. ------------------ Hire me or my team: sales@ntg.co ------------------ To directly support the channel, every "coffee" really helps: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller ------------------ I also wrote a book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".

Bad management is often a leading cause of companies wanting to bring staff back to the office. Sitting in an office makes it so much easier to hide the fact that people are not really being productive or that managers aren't sure how to manage. ------------------ Hire me or my team: sales@ntg.co ------------------ To directly support the channel, every "coffee" really helps: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller ------------------ I also wrote a book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".

If you buy a new server and find that it is far, far slower than you would ever have guessed, there is a good chance that it is because "new" ancient drive technology is being used. Often overlooked, storage performance is often the most critical factor in server performance and it is where vendors often try to cut corners resulting in expensive, brand new servers failing to compete with old laptops in many tasks! ------------------ Hire me or my team: sales@ntg.co ------------------ To directly support the channel, every "coffee" really helps: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller ------------------ I also wrote a book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".

It is so tempting to interview as many people as possible and end up overwhelming ourselves with all of the options from doing so. We hate to have to face the possibility of not interviewing and selecting that "perfect candidate" but the harsh reality is that even if we talk to them, the chances that we will identify them during an interview process is low. Instead we should focus on what works and limit our choices dramatically to lower the cost, increase the speed, and most importantly improve the results of our interviewing and hiring processes. ------------------ Hire me or my team: sales@ntg.co ------------------ To directly support the channel, every "coffee" really helps: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottalanmiller ------------------ I also wrote a book called "Linux Administration Best Practices".
