You can work on stuff that don't require any graphical interface, just a REPL, so you could limit the use of your battery: - project Euler - 4clojure - maths and stats stuff - artificial intelligence - chat bot If you have an existing

That's actually true and some big companies employ consultants from those consulting firms for couple of years - costing much more than a permanent or even contract employee would.

I agree that Linux has probably more users that Windows here on HN, but when I said "a minority of the viewers", I meant "the viewers of the gnod website".
