Not sure about sharing port numbers - you can do something like:

  docker -d -p 80:8000 repo/container
isn't this good enough? Can you give more detailed example?

I'm curious how much equity founders have after such investment with so many investors? I know there's no standard rule here, but I don't know anything about investors, raising money etc., could someone give me few examples with real life numbers?

I track the books I've read and want to read on Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com). I currently have about 200 books on my "to read list". I find interesting books suggestions everywhere - on the HN (special topics for books but quite often in the random commments), articles, blogs etc. I don't blindly add new books, I first research it for a few minutes (table of content, reviews, similar books).

I also recommend Farnam Street Blog (http://www.farnamstreetblog.com/) for a lot of interesting suggestions.

Wow, release notes look great. I'm so impressed with the whole Django ecosystem - I'm yet to find a problem without a good answer on SO, there's a package for most of the repetitive stuff when building a web app. I tried to follow the development process on GitHub for some time and while it was a valuable experience [1], it can be like a side project on its own, just to keep up with all the issues and bigger commits.

Anyway, I'm incredibly thankful for all the contributors. Learning and using Django let me meet great people, experience new things and had quite an impact on my life. Yay Open Source! ;).

[1] In general, I think that watching big project on GitHub for just a few weeks can be better lesson than reading a book on the topic (it depends, of course, but it's a great learning experience nonetheless)

How one can get into making demos? What are the key concepts/techniques? What are the best sources/books about the topic?

Don't know why somebody downvoted you, I've upvoted your post. I also use notebooks, mostly when I'm away from computer but as you, I'm using it for sketching and brainstorming sessions.

Do you regularly review things in your Safari's reading list or it keeps growing? Because that's the problem in my case.

I agree on living simply, everyday I'm trying to do this better.

I also try to use my memory as often as possible and I think it's pretty good (I'm learning mnemonic techniques which are really fun to implement in everyday life). Yes, mind itself is reaaaallly good system, but (at least for me) not all my insights, ideas, notes etc. about particular topic are available on demand, but only some part of them. And if I don't think about one thing very often it can be lost forever. Nevertheless, thank you for taking time to write about your system and giving different perspective.

I'm very interested, will send you an email when I'll finish processing all the information from this thread ;).

Yes, I know the feeling. So even if I know that I won't return to 90% of my bookmarks, I'm adding all of the interesting things so if I'll need it in the future I'll have pretty small set of links (rather that billions from google).

Another thing is archiving all those bookmarks, since after few years a number of them is 404.

I never used DevonThink, can you tell me what are the your personal biggest pros and cons of this program? Also, what do you think is the biggest problem of this/similar systems?

I can sympathize with bookmarks problems, not only they rot, but after few years there is a lot of 404 (pinboard provides archiving bookmarks but that is a paid service).

Do you have a lot of Anki decks of just a single "random things from the bookmarks"? Do you use Anki every day or rather infrequently?

I've used Tiddlywiki in the past but I didn't quite like it (just my experience, I know that a lot of people use it). Switched to dokuwiki and after that to media wiki and I'm using this now, but as you can guess from the question, I'm trying to find/build something better for my needs ;).

How do you use Tiddlywiki - do you often search or do you know where did you put some note? What in your opinion are pros and cons of this wiki? What do you think is the biggest problem?
