For the weekend crowd:
"Networking for System Administrators, 2nd ed" now has a full Kickstarter page, with a book description and everything. It starts by confessing the title is a lie.

I'd appreciate folks spreading the word. #sysadmin :flan_beg:

I have used 203.0.113.0/24 as my internal network for several years. It's reserved for documentation, and I write documentation, so that saved me much trouble.
Amazon's Kindle has now blocklisted those addresses. Which means SWMBO's Kindle doesn't work.
Time to renumber. :flan_piteous: #sysadmin
Author's Tranquility Press got my phone number, and they keep calling thinking that I'll pay them for promotion.
ATP is 100% a scam.
Also: my books are not promotable. Nothing anyone does could make people want to buy them. #writing
Every time someone asks me about "how I self-publish," I flash back to a q&a at a con I shall not name, where I was on the "authors who make a living" panel, but I was the indie one.
A woman who probably meant well got the mic and said, "You do realize, sir, that this aggressive independence and hyper-self-reliance is nothing but a trauma response?"
I looked her in the eye and said, "So is hyper-competence."
So, yeah. That's how I make a living.
