Keep your EUnit teardown logic as simple as possible!

I ran into an issue where an EUnit test fixture was failing with an error I hadn't seen before. It seemed to be coming from the meck mocking suite itself, and was reporting that it was 'already_started' and the tests would fail to run... that's a new one. So the obvious question was, WTF@#$ WHY????...

Experience gets you far, but good tools and services keep you moving in the right direction. Here are some of my favorites:

DigitalOcean is a versatile, affordable cloud provider. You can serve up a blog (like this one!), deploy a wiki, try out ansible, or do something much bigger. They host the annual Hacktoberfest too.

Backblaze offers an affordable, unlimited, set-and-forget backup service. They saved me from the click of death a couple years ago, and I've been a grateful customer ever since.
