Comment on Virtual Homelessness and Virtual Living Come of Age by Prentiss Riddle

My guess would be that for every “hacker hobo” there would be a large number of digital slackers living a similar lifestyle (spending more on electronics and bandwidth than food, shelter and transportation) but working in non-skilled service industries.

If you’ve got hacking skillz it would be easy to slide down the slippery slope to a real job; without those skillz the easiest path would leave you marginally employed in food service indefinitely, or at least until you have a baby or a bike accident and need health insurance.

@todd: Yes agreed. Just happened that my mind was in a 'Gibsonesque' mood the day I wrote this. I foresee potential for a lot of interesting things in the future in terms of social change brought on by technology. Even anti-technology communities brought on by privacy and Orwellian concerns which I have read about in many dystopia books.

A less dystopian vision is Homesteading 2.0 = Technology + Resilient Communities + Agriculture. It should be possible with modern technology to live a Good Life with less effort than early homesteaders. We may not need to turn into roving bands of digital assassins

What? No Primus or Jackson 5? What about Heard it Through the Grapevine bass line by James Jamerson?

I am however thrilled that the Ramble On bass line made it in there.

Comment on How to Build a Lean Startup with Free and Open Source Software – Part 1 by Andy

You should also have a look at SSuite Office for a free office suite. They have a whole range of office suites and software that are free for download.

Their software also doesn’t need to run on Java or .NET, like MS Office and so many open source office suites, so it makes their software very small, efficient, and easy to use.

Hi! Don’t forget FreeBSD has jails that run pretty light.

Can you explain in more detailed how the repositories are setup? I very much like the setup how you described it, but subversion is new to me and to make it working is something of a tricky part
