Got to play with one of these (pre-production sample as I recall) at a meetup. Wonderful key feel, put in my order a few days later and have been patiently waiting since.

I'm a big fan of Arcan (moreso than I am of Wayland), but it's nowhere near as far along as Wayland and I think at this point is still the product of just one person. I think it's fair to call Wayland viable, but I don't

Yep, one of my friends was in the program for that. He was permitted to get a special edition i3 right when they launched in lieu of being able to buy the car off-lease.

Dell developer edition laptops are built for Linux. As usual with laptops there’s a tradeoff between portable and powerful. Switchable graphics are a pain (anywhere, not just on Linux). I’d recommend getting a machine with passable integrat

This is really cool! I've always wanted to use a Rio-like WM but my chronic lack of gumption kept me from installing one. Wio looks sufficiently neat that I think I should get around to trying it. For people who like new window manager

In case anyone isn't familiar with them, these two books[1][2] from the Pragmatic Programmer are great for doing just this. They offer a guided intro to 7 different languages each, and they're a whole lot of fun. [1] https:/

I think hosting could be solved somewhat easily depending on how much control PBS actually has of their programming. They could go peer to peer, which makes total sense for a public good. Digitization costs are still an issue, of course. I
