would you mind elaborating what your use case for docker was and how otto may have replaced it?

Permutation City: People can run simulations of themselves or entirely migrate their consciousness into computer programs, but existence is often limited to the amount of computation that you can afford, leading to slow existences that stretch time into fractions of realtime. That premise had me hooked, but the book has fantastic thought provoking plot points throughout. Highly recommended. http://www.amazon.com/Permutation-City-Novel-Greg-Egan/dp/15...
Blindsight: Amazing first alien encounter book that should be read by everyone that is a fan of the genre. Memorable cast of characters...the Vampires are really interesting. All kinds of introductory scientific concepts throughout. Entertaining and educational. http://www.amazon.com/Blindsight-Peter-Watts/dp/0765319640/r...
When the blockchain was started 50 Bitcoins per block were awarded until november 2012 when it was halved to 25. It is predicted to half again in 2017.

This is a fantastic quote. I lived in Tokyo for 3 years and while I picked up some of the language and had a phenomenal time, I saw friends who were fluent in Japanese and the experiences and interactions they had and was and am still extremely jealous.
They should use classes like this in undergrad computer science to show why Linear Algebra will be so important and the amazing applications you can do with it. Highly recommended.
Has the limit on private repositories ever driven publishing of open source libraries for some of your repos?
This sounds like a 10 page side story in a Neil Stephenson Book. I love it.
Totally worth your time. Many questions like this on https://www.reddit.com/r/omscs .
I applied when it first opened for applications. I was not admitted. Two session later they reached out and mentioned that my application was flagged for re-evaluation and asked if I was interested. I said I was and a few months later I was accepted.
It is a great program, I highly recommend it.
FYI I wrote a node module to make programming for the regular dash button really easy:

At the same token it is because they have these vast troves of data and some of the best machine learning scientists in the word, they are suited to do this type of research.
Another thing to think about is that if we are not distracted by the commute we will spend more time using Google services.
", he became convinced of something he came to call the Dust Theory, which holds that there is no difference, even in principle, between physics and mathematics, and that all mathematically possible structures exist, among them our physics and therefore our spacetime. These structures are being computed, in the manner of a program on a universal Turing machine, using something Durham refers to as "dust" which is a generic, vague term describing anything which can be interpreted to represent information; and therefore, that the only thing that matters is that a mathematical structure be self-consistent and, as such, computable. As long as a mathematical structure is possibly computable, then it is being computed on some dust, though it does not matter what dust actually is, only that there be a possible interpretation where such a computation is taking place somehow. The dust theory implies, as such, that all possible universes exist and are equally real, emerging spontaneously from their own mathematical self-consistency."
Great book!
