danieltoshea··on 8tracks Password Security Alert
8tracks could have a backup system that uses Github as the identity provider, the backup data wouldn't have to reside in a repo on Github. As a PSA to others using Github organizations and allowing login via Github, there is a setting you can turn on to require MFA for all the members of the org.

How does this work if the clocks drift between the nodes? Does this allow incorrect behavior because one transaction looks like it happened before another?

No gotcha's with Joyent so far. I've been using Solaris for a couple years so Matt leaves the sys admin stuff to me. We also use webmin which makes things much much easier.

The git bundle is pretty basic (add, commit, pull, and push) if you are interested in it shoot me an email and I will send it to you.
