#42I've already built it and I am finalizing website copy, static pages, etc before launching. I built network 'canaries', for lack of a better word, that do a couple things. 1) They emulate popular services, Web Server, FTP Server, MySQL server. 2) They provide you with information and alert you when other machines talk to it (for example, it will give you information from a POST request on a page that has a password f…
Is there a place I can go now to learn more?

#43On the personal side, A huge huge undertaking for my brother and I that's been a dream of ours for a long time. We'll be building the web app with MeteorJS and React. These two tools enable us to really build our vision with the few resources we have.
I also want to start a proper YouTube channel dedicated to Meteor programming. I've ordered my Microphone which should arrive whenever, it's new years so no rush. Once I get that I will start recording some cool stuff that hopefully helps grow the developer base. They say that you don't really know the material unless you can explain it in simple terms. That's my main reason for launching the channel.
Maybe, if there's time and things take off, I'll dive into Elixir/Phoenix.90% chance I won't though.

@Sergio in July: How is the project going so far? How many videos have you made?

#45I'd like to expand my knowledge in machine learning/AI. I am not that great at math so this will push my boundaries a bit. I am on chapter 2 of this: http://neuralnetworksanddeeplearning.com/chap2.html Ultimate goal is to be able to intuitively see valuable places where machine learning would actually be useful in solving problems people have in the world. I'd like to be able to debate ideas with people that know ML…

#46* Other than that, I ran about 1000 miles this year but want to be more consistent and avoid taking weeks long breaks from running.
* Read less and but get more out of it. I read about 25 books, but so many of them I don't remember much from them. I'll try to sink my teeth into 12 or so instead.
* Lose 10 lbs. Lost 15 this year, 10 more would be ideal for me I think.

I've put together a website to help gather the unikernel projects [3], so if you choose to consider this approach for your next round of work, please do share your experiences there!

#50* Finish a book I have started a few days ago and release it under Creative Commons. * Finish up a paper I've been working on for the last couple of months. * Get a contract extension. * Finish up the reading challenge for the next year (I've failed miserably this year with 16/25 books). Also, I have two projects in my hand that seem more than interesting and I can't wait to start them as soon as the holidays finish.
Tell us what your book is about
I've been blogging my thoughts for about two years now, but I found that blog posts are too limiting to express my thoughts about these things.
That's why I have decided to write a book that will unite my opinions on these topics, give my back story as a person who grew up in a war torn country that's not very familiar for its technological advancements and the things I've been through trying to compete with international developers and having my right to free speech jeopardized a couple of times.
