So I’ve been waiting a bit to write about the aftermath of Startup Riot. I’m glad I did - a lot has happened in the last few days that I want to talk about. First, you probably want to know if the event is a success. Well, since I organized Startup Riot, I’d probably say “yes”. So instead, why don’t you read what Dan Greenfield, Stephen Fleming, Lance Weatherby, Paul Stamatiou, Paul Freet, Ashish Mistry, Scott Burkett, LenderFlex (presumably David Jones posted this), Mathew Sweezey, and Buddy Ray and Anand Amin had to say. It may look like I only linked to positive posts but I can’t find any negative ones. At least, not yet.

You may not wish for it to happen but it will. Just like everything else mechanical, hard drives fail. If you’re toting around a laptop (like me) then your chances of damaging your hard drive are even higher.
Now, the biggest problem with this is that people (okay, people like me) are inherently lazy about backing up stuff. I devised a way to backup my important files automatically from my laptop onto a RAIDed network house server (if you don’t know what that means, don’t worry - it isn’t important for the stuff below).
