That sounds really easy until you calculate the time that goes into this setup. Assuming you have about 30-40 screens, 3 to 4 days work on each, you're talking about a pretty big project.

Our world's economy is run by business majors not economists
Maybe the world YOU choose to live in. Not mine. I work at a scientific research institute.
I am suddenly afraid my career potential is limited. I am not even quite 40 yet.
Who cares? Why don't you just do fun work, instead?
I'm pursuing a nice, mentally satisfying workday. I'm not pursuing something abstract as "career potential". I don't need bigger homes and faster cars. I just want a nice job and two warm tits besides me at night.
Meanwhile if you had gone to business school you would be relevant forever and probably better paid.
So your objective in life is to be better paid? That sounds kinda sad, actually.
You're hitting the nail on the head. I'm working at a scientific institute, and I'm surrounded by geriatric old farts. And I love them because it's impossible to do a project without them. We do space projects, putting infra-red cameras on satellites. These projects usually take a minimum of 10 years. This managing director its business is just that -- a big corporate business.
Yes, and by your use of the phrase "Randroids and Ron Paul Zombies," I can tell that your rationality is completely beyond reproach.
Well, his original statement was beyond reproach. In fact, it was just simple fact and still it got modded troll.
Why the fuck was this modded as troll?
Answer: VMware VMs.
Yeah, but when virtualizing, I'd put the virtualized DNS servers on their own exclusive hardware.
That's not allowed
Seriously, it's not. Instapaper's creator, Marco Arment, has a donate button on his website, but not in the app. That's because Apple's rules say that app purchases should go towards some sort of software feature.
I second this. When I read between the lines, Pausch is actually not at all affable or likeable. But somehow there's this intense love that he feels for the world around him, and it stays with him until the end.
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. No explanation, just go read it.
Have you really found it influenced your life? I found it highly engrossing, but the whole motorcycle maintenance thing didn't really struck a nerve with me. What did impress me, was the plagued writer descending into insanity, and then coming out of it. But there isn't a whole lot to learn from that.
Yeah but 30% of these still runs Windows XP, I.e. these are old old machines. Meanwhile a smartphone gets replaced at least every two years. At least.
Thanks, yes, that's true. I did go the extra mile and got an SSL certificate after all.
Actually, it's all of the above. It's an open-source social network of migraine-inducing jews who all play the Battlestar Galactica game. Currently, there's only one member, Greg Egan.
The first problem was that for some reason, I had to re-run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates".
Then I got an error "markerb ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII" after the command "bundle install --without development test heroku" tells me:
Using markerb (1.0.0) from https://github.com/plataformatec/markerb.git (at master)
ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII
An error occurred while installing markerb (1.0.0), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install markerb -v '1.0.0'` succeeds before bundling.
Solution turned out here to add the following to
export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
I stopped at the point where you configure the webserver, because SSL is required and I don't have an SSL certificate yet for my private webserver.
Without life, Biology itself would be impossible.
