I mean expendable in the sense that as an employee you can just be thrown away if the market dips. Sure, you can maybe find more work, but you probably would have to uproot (not ev…

> The carrying capacity of the Earth is closed to 1 billion people... Where does this come? Is it referenced in the books you mention? I just have never heard this before.

Wait until January 2021. But on a serious note, even though my SO and I are doing very well economically (both engineers), it's still weighs heavy the thought of having a child wit…

If I were a burglar and wanted to do some casing, this would be a legit way to do it.

I don't know, I find "Linux Containers" to be sufficiently generic as Linux has native support for them. LXD/LXC, Docker, etc, are simply tools built upon that.

The US needs to invest in alternate modes of high speed travel. We need more options than just the airline industry. Edit: Hmm... I guess not. Wow.

Copyright does not protect recipes. It does more likely than not protect the images being scraped, though.

There is markup specifically for recipes. I wonder why it isn't more often used. EDIT: Yes, the article mentions it, but doesn't give a clue why it isn't more prevalent.

I have a Mac, but I also have a Linux machine. I go back and forth depending.

On a related note, what are some decent external touch pads? I would love to have one to give my mouse hand a break sometimes while at my desktop.
