I have some farming experience under my belt, zero with rice. You have to look at labour as a function of season. If while planting, there are no competing jobs, but while harvesting, there are (or the other way around)... That would be you

Not exactly, I tried to configure the trackpad open-source (driver?) ages ago. The hardware itself has so many features/switches which are not open and hence not available to the software. The hardware and software go hand in hand IMO.

I have the exact opposite opinion (about the OpenBSD book). I used basic ls, dd, tar, ps, cat, etc. Did not know (still do not) Unix systems beyond configuring a basic "how to" driven webservers, DNS servers, etc. Michael Lucas ca
