What does homelessness mean in an US context? Is it a state where you cannot even afford rent and actually sleep on the streets? I have read quite a few posts in HN referring to homelessness. For someone from a much much poorer nation, posts/comments from here suggest it is so so easy to be homeless in US than ours which brings disbelief to me.

And secondly, the author points she is "upper class"? How can upper class family or individual ever need to borrow loans and also not have assets? I only ask to gain some social context. For example, our social context, a middle class family wouldn't take education loans and would have assets, in general (even the many thousands of students who immigrate to US to study, the middle class student do not take loans to fund their education in US university - This is what always surprises me when I see posts/comments similar to this)

I was thinking about a tool as such and wanted to build after I finished my Master's when I would have time (as I work full-time). The experience you described is exactly why I wanted to build such a tool in the first-place. And, this is going to be really useful.

However, is there a Windows version? That is, unfortunately, what I have to use at work.

Learn to use the debugger and read code commit history. And talk with your team-mates. In the last few months, as a student working part-time (< 20hrs/week), I am on a PHP codebase with over 5 million LOC and 15 years of work, and I was pretty good with dealing around it within a month. There are lots of dependencies like you mentioned and at least three different "eras" of code frameworks and hardly any documentation. I had not touched PHP in any capacity before this for at least 3 years. I admit PHP is easier to read and reason than Java when afresh but those three things made me really fast to be productive and making independent production-ready features.

I have a similar experience. I am still at university and not a native-German, but I am asking around, and for a non-IT German, 60K (gross) would be like super-rich money, and companies are not willing to give you that much. However, my experience is not based on the big cities, where I know 50-60K (gross) would be the starting rate for a Master's student.

I would be interested to hear other's opinion and experience, as I will join the workforce later this year.

Can one collect data without "personal data" by anonymizing those specific attributes (ip, phone number)?

Also, say, I want to collect data about the performance of the web application. Can that be collected, or does it require explicit consent as well?

IANAL. This should depend on the contract you had with your ex-companies. My previous big company had a contract that stated that more than two of us could not leave the same time and work at the any same company for a period of 6-12 months.

I think if you and your friends worked together, but now, some amount of time has passed then, it should be fair enough.

I uploaded a picture of my math assignment, and it showed a recommendation of mushroom!! I am not sure if one should trust this to actually figure out if a mushroom is edible or not.

Anybody can share some light on companies that uses semantic web technologies? Currently at university have a semantic web class but I am finding it difficult where the use case are to create value for business or startup.

I would suggest Antergos based on Arch, in that case. You can select xfce as the starting de, and then install wm on top of it, or individually. You will get a working distro quite easily, and after that you can customize as much as you want, without having to go through the base Arch distro installation, which requires you to follow the excellent Arch wiki guides. I installed Antergos on a 4 years old laptop that I got recently, and it works fine seamlessly.

I posted a question in the vein of "unless you're violating copyright or patent law".

How do you know if you are breaking copyright or patent law? How do you figure out the jungle of patents? or patents that are too general and thus similar?

If the competitor is using PHP, and I use Python is that a different product in the view of the "patent"?

I am in Germany now. Can you tell me why this is not the case in mainland Europe? Is it much better in Europe to do side-project in lieu of the fear of getting sued?

I have been reading that Vagrant provides a out-of-the-box support for docker after version 1.7. So, it seems this will be easier, and with an obvious case for Windows or Mac.

I am already on Linux, so, my question is why create extra abstraction to it? Is not the function of docker to provide isolation as Vagrant but without the extra overhead of VM. As far as I could gather, one prominent use cases of Docker is the cheapness. Would not doing Docker on top of Vagrant beat that purpose?

Did you use separate docker container for each of the stacks? From what I can gather, the docker way is to reduce each complexity to a separate container solution.

And, I agree that docker way of doing things is a bit tricky at first, since we are not used to doing things that way

I have been trying to setup docker, but the tutorials on the web seem not to be focused on active development (at the moment). Can you link to some documentations from where I can learn about the workflow and transitions from old way of doing things to the docker way?
