It's Always DNS

So there does seem to be a recent Hype-train around improved note taking and Zettelkasten in particular.

I would 100% echo the timesink/tarpit comments insofar as unless you have a specific learning or knowledge management goal devoting time to this can be a fun procrastination game.

Many of the sources rate the book "How to Take Smart Notes" by Sönke Ahrens as a starting point (ISBN10 1542866502 , ISBN13 9781542866507)

There are a plethora of youtube channels and Productivity websites to be found so YMMV, I liked:

Bryan Jenks' - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5fd4SsfvECy0zzf8Cyo2...

Justin (Effective Remote work )- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkzyo69rqBoBJUyQ9jo53Bw/vid...

Project is here: https://github.com/gamozolabs/chocolate_milk

I found it pretty fun and educational to watch as a Rust N00b.

I’m trying to understand the alternative - let contagion continue unchecked and overwhelm medical services?

That was uncomfortable watching - having been responsible for data centers in a past life my nightmares were haunted by those with no, or worse, little knowledge re-patching critical infrastructure.

This reminded me of an article I read about the "Pythagorean" diet which not only excluded meat but also beans. Can't find the exact citation but summary with https://brooklynbrainery.com/blog/pythagoras-the-superior-ve... content here:

On the subject of Video Synths - Teenage Engineering have a preview of their OP-Z:

https://www.teenageengineering.com/products/op-z

Based on their previous offerings I am very excited to see how this turns out (and a little worried for my bank balance)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Ants?

http://packetpushers.net/ - great podcast for network-related industry news & opinion. Nice mix of useful information and personality bombast.

I would recommend "Sorting and Searching" Volume 3 from Donald Knuth's "The Art of Computer Programming". Fantastic, in-depth read.

Along similar lines there was a fascinating video about modelling different types of snow for Frozen which goes into some detail about the Material Point Method (MPM) algorithms:

I would agree that this is a significant milestone - however I would have thought that there's still a large amount of randomness in protein expression meaning you would still be painting in "broad strokes" as opposed to granular detail of traits.

Very exciting topic - I would be really interested to see how various features such as Link aggregation (LACP) and Spanning tree protocol would be implemented within the framework.

Minaal Backpack - https://www.minaal.com/ I got the version 1.0 with kickstarter and have used it almost daily ever since. Lovely bag with thoughtful design for daily work use or as a weekend bag.

Very Nice Video - One of my favourite sub 5 minute explanations is Oliver Humpage's @ Ignite Bristol circa 2011:

Hope you enjoy as much as I did.

Without having any "hands on" (or off) with either of these devices - Can anyone tell me if there is any training data held locally on either of these or do all voice commands get sent to Amazon/Goolge for parsing centrally?

What a refreshing read, it came across as authentic advice with actionable points - I feel that the "value your own time above all else" and "prepare to be wrong" are all too often missed in the more glitzy & glamorous "I make n$$$ per month" posts.

I would say a good start is tonymacx86 - Hugely valuable resource fro all things hackintosh:

You're hired at the market rate you specified :)

Not sure about an army, but I think the point is that they are actively consuming a public service more often because they have cut their own costs, instead of paying for a deterrent themselves.

It seems as though this is following a familiar pattern (as in the UK) of:

"Privatise the profit, push the risk/cost to the local community"

There's an related Youtube video from Igor Skochinsky's REcon 2014 talk that I watched this week & found interesting:

May be also be interesting to others wanting further information.

This reads alarmingly similar to many techcrunch articles.

Perhaps techcrunch could be improved with the addition of plastic cows and/or hedgehogs.

The question was around the Washington Post's political standing not the BBC's.

I wasn't implying anything about the reporting accuracy just commenting on the difference - it turns out less than I originally thought.

Always good to hear the BBC's perceived lack of bias - shame it seems the current political climate in the UK (Conservative) appears to be attempting to cut it's funding:

http://www.theguardian.com/media/bbc-licence-fee http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/bbc/10901155/B...

Always interesting reading the same news from different sources - the BBC story does not seem to mention the Almaz-Antey test firing of a newer model of the missile to disprove Russian involvement.

Where does the WP lie on the political Spectrum? As a Euro-bloke I don't know.

A website that recently rekindled my love of boardgames is http://www.shutupandsitdown.com/

I'm not affiliated in any way - I just really enjoyed it as an entity that is created out of a genuine passion for the medium mixed with a great "nuts & bolts" discussion of the mechanics of the games they review.

Enjoy!

Very interested in this and wondering about the possibilities of creating a software load-balancing instance with Go - rewriting source & destination addresses on the fly and tracking session states to failover between instances of the program.

I feel like I have taken the red pill while watching Inception.

I really enjoyed the piece - but I wonder if the arguments made work for a highly focused coding bender and perhaps not day-to-day business growth of a startup where meeting face to face with other founders, potential partners & mentors would be facilitated by being in a crowded city as opposed to a Senegalese beach?
