+  SSH adduser: Because friends don't let friends login or run stuff as root
+linux: true
+description: |
+  Many modern web programs (`npm` and `postgres`, for example) will not function correctly if run as root. `ssh-adduser` adds user `me` with the same **`~/.ssh/authorized_keys`** as the `root` user, with a long random password, and gives `me` `sudo` privileges.
