It's interesting to think about. For instance, how much space do we need per capita? If we were to pack everyone together giving each a 2ft by 2ft space, the current population would take up the space of a large county or two. That's rather fascinating to think about because it isn't a large amount of space. Obviously it isn't sustainable, but our physical size is small. But then you start factoring in food, shelter, water, mental well-being, etc... It would just be interesting to find out how much space we really need per capita thinking along those lines.

I mean expendable in the sense that as an employee you can just be thrown away if the market dips. Sure, you can maybe find more work, but you probably would have to uproot (not everyone lives in SV) and that's not easy with kids. My parents did that and it sucked; 8 different schools from elementary to high school.

Where does this come? Is it referenced in the books you mention? I just have never heard this before.

Wait until January 2021.

But on a serious note, even though my SO and I are doing very well economically (both engineers), it's still weighs heavy the thought of having a child with how expendable engineers are these days.

If I were a burglar and wanted to do some casing, this would be a legit way to do it.

This is great! Well, except for the fact it hijacks my back button and my local map is out of date by at least 6 months.

But, I love that this is open.

So is Google's own podcast app similarly banned? This is really quite pathetic.

A pity the author didn't provide you with a more professionally polished version you could add to your github and call your own.

Citation?

It might get tricky when you have home grown terrorists walking around with long guns shouting that it violates some right they think they have to not wear them.

You probably know this, but for others, onion (and other veggies) freeze well. I'll usually chop up most of the bag and put all of it in freezer bags and freeze laying flat (breaking them up during the freezing process to they stay loose). It is then easy to pour out half cup or whatever the recipe calls for.

>... recommend to a business focused founder for them to grok the hacker mindset.

From 1000 ft, what's different between the two? It's all about solving problems.

The business focused founder sees a problem, a business/market opportunity. He/She needs to figure out how to solve it, how to come up with a way to satisfy that market. If a product exists, how do they get that product into the hands of the customer. If the product doesn't exist, how to get it into existence and then get it into the hands of the customer.

The hacker/developer/whatever sees a problem and He/She tries to develop a product that satisfies that problem based on the requirements they're either given or suss out themselves. The hacker mindset is an insatiable need for knowledge. How to do a thing. How to make a thing. How did others make a thing. Don't business people think that way, also? Probably one big difference might be that the hacker mindset shares knowledge. Business people are more protective of it. (Generally)

An asset register is how companies keep track of their assets. Any software license, computer, monitor, keyboard, copy machine, etc. the company claims as an asset is tracked in the register.

I don't know, I find "Linux Containers" to be sufficiently generic as Linux has native support for them. LXD/LXC, Docker, etc, are simply tools built upon that.
