  • Well, at least for nginx, you can specify the root (or alias if required) directive; to me, it makes very little sense to rely on defaults, you need to specify your servers / virtual hosts anyways, might as well make the configuration more self-documenting…




  • Is /var really such a mystery? I always understood it as the non-volatile system directory that can be written into. Like log files, databases, cache etc. /var/tmp it’s somewhat weird because a non-volatile temporary folder for me is just cache, and /var/lib is named somewhat weird because it doesn’t hold what I’d usually call libraries.

    They called me recently because I switched to a cheaper provider about a year ago, trying to win me back. When asked what I preferred about my current provider I said “the facts that I pay 10 euros less per month and that I can actually watch YouTube on Saturday evenings”
