I do as well, and agree 100%.

Funny story, the lead on our Eastern European team told me a while back that he had to tell his team:

When the North Americans ask at the beginning of a meeting "How's it going?", they do NOT really want to know how you are doing. It's just social lubrication before getting to work.

Before that, we were getting to learn that their mother in-laws in town or different medical issues.


I've had my domain and some business ideas ready for 20 years now (since Rainbow's End).

Still waiting for the ecosystem to mature a little more and the "early" movers to consolidate the APIs. Also, I love my job so not super motivated.

The only business "secret sauces" I know are creativity (market value depends on what you're selling) and implementation (if what you're selling works). Customers will follow.

IMO: Go For It! The more the space matures, the better for all of us.

Thanks, but i believe the business model of a one time payment is not that great tbh, im joining anyways, but i just wanted to know how people make this a profitable business

They also try to do it by design: The Menil Collection in Houston keeps their storage on the top floor to avoid damage from Hurricane flooding.

Keeping in mind with Vagrant: if you are using a synced_folder in your host as a source folder in the VM, those files in the synced_folder will be modified on the host.

Good point. For me, that was intentional, since all my projects are in git I don't care if it messes something up. Then you get the benefit of being able to use your regular git tooling/flows/whatever, without having to add credentials to the VM.

But if you need something more strict, 'config.vm.synced_folder' also supports 'type rsync', which will copy the source folder at startup to the VM, but then it's on you to sync it back or whatever.


I like this workflow a lot, actually. Docker is great and all, but depending on the project, Vagrant helps "keep it simple".

Thanks


Additionally, he later concluded that the tool of politics was a total waste of time to do that work. He then focused solely on science and design.

Computronium! Kurzweil goes into this in the Singularity is Near.

I've always wondered if Warlock from the New Mutants was made of it.

I've been learning my way through this the last few years. Started small and cheap, have gotten to "good enough for me" and cheap. Bought about 5 <$200, and a ~$400 low-end epson.

Looking to do outdoor video graffiti and VJing.

You appear to be thinking in terms of resolution, where you'll get better details/sharper focus the higher you go.

For projectors, I've learned to move up in lumens. 6-7k minimum.

Keeping in mind: the higher the luminous flux, the more expensive.

There's some really cool stuff going on in the "tape delay loop" space. People make and sell all sorts of cassettes for many different "sample lengths". The designs of how they fit the tape in the box are pretty amazing.
