I hope this is some sort of staging or testing server?
The idea of repeatedly writing code and rsyncing it up to a production server while adding new features/whatever seems incredibly error prone to me. And that's not even to touch on whether or not there's automated testing (in the form of unit/integration/whatever tests in the code).
- senko 15y agoYeah, it's a development server. I've got a cheap VPS (€4/mo with 512MB of memory) and I usually run the code I'm developing there. My reasons: I don't have to pollute my laptop with various (sometimes mutually exclusive) servers - virtualenv &co are great, but can only go so far, and VMs are much harder on the battery; trivial for other people (colleagues, clients) to see WIP, even if my laptop is suspended.
