China’s Olympic Data Centre
Published by September 14th, 2007 in China, Tech Horizon and The Cloud. 0 CommentsI got to go and stick my nose about a nice “Olympic Quality” (whatever that means) CNC data centre last night as my team and I ripped up and put back together a new clients ailing cluster.

Published by August 22nd, 2007 in Business Development and China. 2 CommentsWell, hasn’t managing a .CN or any domain name in China been fun. The number of well understood ICANN recommendations that aren’t adhered to is as numerous as the cries for blood following the loss of Australia to Italy in the world cup quarter finals. In any case the Ministry of Science and Technology has [...]

Well, I lost track of time. However long it has been, I am now at 44GB! Only a couple hundred left to go. Why Red Hat? Why are your core mirrors so piss weak in China compared to other distros?

Hiring Engineers in China
Published by August 12th, 2007 in Business Development and China. 4 CommentsHas anybody else out there had issues with finding good people in China? My problem is not the vast swath of never ending bodies lining up for a job, or even the various diluted names for degrees these days, “Bachelor of Internet Marketing”, “Bachelor of E Business Sanitation” – a problem not limited to China. [...]

Well, it has been about 56 hours and we have ~18GB…….as long as China doesn’t run out of electricity, or myself of years on this planet. Then it will eventually complete…….eventually.
