About Me

I'm a web developer, professionally, working in higher ed. I've been with Dreamhost since 1999 and have loved it. :)

Sites I Maintain

Personal sites:

• amhill.net - Personal online presence
• blog.amhill.net - Blog, with a mix of egoist personal thoughts, book & cellphone reviews (I have a thing with Verizon where I get new phones to use and review), and technological things.

Sites I help with (and host)

• mjhill.net
• lenormand.info
• karmicegg.com
• goodtarot.com

Dreamhost Idiosyncrasies

Here are a some things I've discovered working with Dreamhost where their configuration requires some actions that are non-standard due to working in a shared hosting environment:

• When creating a PHP.ini file (or a PHPRC), such as what is needed when setting up the IonCube PHP Loader, the changes made to the PHP.ini file will be reloaded every 5-7 minutes, though you can force it with killall php53.cgi.
