Building a Debian Application Server with PHP 7 + MySQL 5.7 + MS SQL
One of the applications I am building integrates with a legacy software platform including MS SQL Server. In past versions of PHP, there was a simple and free tool called FreeTDS which enabled PHP to connect to MS SQL Server, but this has been deprecated as of PHP 7. In order to get all the new…

Setting Up a Debian Server with PHP 7 and MySQL 5.7
First, I created a droplet with Digital Ocean (Referral Link) and give it 1GB RAM. Now, the default apt list needs to be expanded; nano /etc/apt/sources.list Add these sources… deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib non-free deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib non-free deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian…

This spoked wheel suggested a strategy; people are like a tide moving in towards the center, and later out from the center. I started my day…

Getting Ready for Lyft and Uber
The first gig apps I want to try out are the obvious ones; Lyft and Uber. I recently bought a three-year old Honda Civic. I did it partially with this in mind. This was the best equilibrium-point I could find between low long-term operating cost and low depreciation based on age while staying within budget.…

Why Gigs?
I was 14 when I had my first gig. I was suddenly DJ-CJ and making well over $100/hour… every once in a while. Today, things are different.

Despite that, the art, the music, the community, the struggle, and the rewards were nothing at all like I had imagined. Burning Man is not a fun getaway. It’s hard. You…

Lion Biotech has an average price target of $16 or about 100% growth from most analysts. I bought two shares at $8.25 with a goal of +25/-14%.
