And run what? Solaris?! The only good thing to do with Solaris is to take it out back and shoot it in the head. I supposed I'd have been better off learning Solaris before Linux... but since I learned Linux first, going to Solaris ho

This is something that I wrestle with on a regular basis. I am not a top engineer... I am not even an engineer at all. I work in support and want to move over to programming. Reading the writing on the wall... programming is the future, if

What if their values don't coincide with yours? What if they're teaching your kid evolution and you're a creationist? (or vice versa) What if they're teaching your kid something that is just flat out inaccurate? How do y

I cannot even begin to say how much I agree with this. For once, someone who puts the priority of education where it truly belongs... AT HOME. This isn't to say that education outside of the home has no place. It's just that it

The Arch Linux community that you see in Freenode/#archlinux... there's LOT of elitism coming from a few very vocal individuals. "Earnestly" is very nice, very helpful. I don't know if community is genuinely importa

You know, if that were me I wouldn't even give it a second thought. I'd be able to sleep at night because I knew I did the right thing.

You're painting with a wide brush, as I was going to do as well... however, my concerns are more specific. Charlatans are in every culture. Slackers are in every culture. This is nothing unique to the Dutch. I am of the mind that r

I'd rather take that discussion to IM or video, as I think it would be more productive in a synchronous fashion, than here.

I am an American who travels to Amsterdam on a regular basis, and who lived there for 2 years for work. Based on that experience, I believe that there are some more basic cultural issues that need to be addressed if Amsterdam is to be a su

Do tell. I'm back here in Amsterdam for a month. Lived here for about 2 years, a couple years back... and we did some travel in other parts of NL while we were here. Biking didn't seem all that much different outside of Amsterdam,

I am from Portland, as well. And the "bike friendly" claim seems like a joke after having lived in Amsterdam for nearly two years. I don't think we (Portlanders) have a clue what bike-friendly is. It would be nice if biking

Please understand me. No desire to sound negative. No wishes for anything but the best. I am just curious as to what your business model will be for this?

Oh? I just tried to get one with the instructions on their github page, and it said the box type was vbox. Are the vmware versions kept elsewhere?

Let me speak to you as someone with some hindsight on this issue. I'm going to be 40 in November. I am in my final weeks of my final class of a Business Management track. On August 19th I will finish school. I started college in 1992.

I never thought about the peer-review aspect of this. Good point. Thank you for reminding me. :)

What I don't get is why is this just coming to light now? In the article it says that this happened February 9, 2012. It's been over a year since this happened why are we just hearing about it now?

I think there are still some proprietary closed-source bits in the Oracle Java SE releases though. I'm no expert, but I thought I'd read something to this effect when looking this up recently. (Just in the past couple days.)

One possible scenario: GitHub may have been young, foolish, and naive, and originally registered their domain with GoDaddy. Then they woke up and realized what a STEAMING PILE GoDaddy is as a company, and corrected the error of their ways f

I don't want to play sysadmin for email. I know that's possible ... but not how I want to spend my time. That's why I'm willing to farm that out to someone else, and pay for it.

I suspect this will do a great deal to give ammunition to 37 Signals for writing their book about remote work. I'm a huge fan of remote working, and I think that the current corporate mindset against it... and company arguments against it..

I have some experience with this. I never went into a slump that I would consider clinical depression. I'm not sure if that's what you're going through, or not. I'm certainly not that kind of professional. My experience is this: regret is a
