on: Moving away from Puppet: SaltStack or Ansible?
You actually answered your own question.
>I have seen guys try these 9k+ lines of complex syntax Salt systems only to break things, misconfigure them, and leave the system totally dependent on the author (aka the genius).
A lot of it is job security, even if that job doesn't pay them anything.

on: This is What it's Like to Be a Woman at a Bitcoin Meetup
Everyone needs to feel like they belong somewhere. They need a cause.
Your cause is hatred of white men and you find solace with others of the same persuasion.
But you're still wrong, and the angry ranting is just ignored by people, even if they agree with some of your points.
FYI.

Yeah, I've seen those links before, but I don't see how this article applies, this is not an excerpt with a link to the "real article" it's basically a tutorial.

That's a great idea. I know part of the problem with Netflix and Linux is not only does Netflix not develop a solution, but they try to block Linux access, probably due to DRM. A good solution like you suggest might be the best bet.

why do you say that, because it isn't a press release or some startup garbage? It's old news, but still news

Brilliant. I have to admit I was wondering how that was done. It's always fast when I go to use it. Nice work, it's the little things like that that really matter

Good for him. Maybe more of the general public will actually start talking about it. Right now I think most of the populace is blissfully unaware of the program.

on: How do free services on the web make money?
Many times they don't. It's usually something like Instagram where they give out a product for free in hopes that piles of people will start using it, and they'll "figure out something later". Worked out great for Google and Instagram, not so great for 999,999 other startups who tried it.
Personally, I like the idea, but it's tough.

I'm not so sure that applying for YC is different from any other VC firm. But it is good advice here.

This is pretty cool. GE has been doing a lot of human helping technology lately. It's a pretty awesome use of their resources.
