Go do theatersport or "impro". It may sound scary, but when in a small group without spectators, you start easy, make small steps, and it helps you get out of your shell. One of the mottos is "to fail with pleasure". You will fail here, and they design games where everybody will fail. You will practise rejection here. Plus you can practise social status with status games.
I had stage fright. In several weeks I'll do my second public show, for a small audience. It can really turn your view of yourself around.
You can read books about it, but you have to do it, experience it. It's much less frightening when you do it then you think, because of the small steps. But you need a good teacher here, one that knows what he does and has done it for years. In general, it's really fun!
I'm a Docker n00b, still don't know what it can do exactly. Can Docker replace Virtualbox? I guess only for Linux apps, and suppose it won't provide a GUI, won't run Windows to use Photoshop?!
Let me explain Docker for Mac in a little more detail [I work on this project at Docker].
Previously in order to run Linux containers on a Mac, you needed to install VirtualBox and have an embedded Linux virtual machine that would run the Docker containers from the Mac CLI. There would be a network endpoint on your Mac that pointed at the Linux VM, and the two worlds are quite separate.
Docker for Mac is a native MacOS X application that embeds a hypervisor (based on xhyve), a Linux distribution and filesystem and network sharing that is much more Mac native. You just drag-and-drop the Mac application to /Applications, run it, and the Docker CLI just works. The filesystem sharing maps OSX volumes seamlessly into the Linux container and remaps MacOS X UIDs into Linux ones (no more permissions problems), and the networking publishes ports to either `docker.local` or `localhost` depending on the configuration.
A lot of this only became possible in recent versions of OSX thanks to the Hypervisor.framework that has been bundled, and the hard work of mist64 who released xhyve (in turn based on bhyve in FreeBSD) that uses it. Most of the processes do not need root access and run as the user. We've also used some unikernel libaries from MirageOS to provide the filesystem and networking "semantic translation" layers between OSX and Linux. Inside the application is also the latest greatest Docker engine, and autoupdates to make it easy to keep uptodate.
Although the app only runs Linux containers at present, the Docker engine is gaining support for non-Linux containers, so expect to see updates in this space. This first beta release aims to make the use of Linux containers as happy as possible on Windows and MacOS X, so please reports any bugs or feedback to us so we can sort that out first though :)
xhyve isn't exactly production ready (and the main repo hasn't been updated for a while). Did you guys actually solve some of the major problems (e.g., https://github.com/mist64/xhyve/issues/86 - crash coming back from sleep) or is that an expected part of the beta experience?
Yes, quite a few issues of that nature have been fixed (and we are planning to open-source the changes later in the year once we stabilise the overall application).
The bug above has been reported to Apple and they've reportedly fixed it in the latest 10.11.4 seeds, but we've put in a workaround that detects ACPI sleep events and freezes vCPUs just before going into hibernate mode. None of the beta testers have reported any sleep crashes using Docker for Mac recently, so if you do see anything of this nature please let us know.
I have not experienced this crash, and even had a container running last night, put the laptop to bed, woke it up this morning and the container is still there, running and interactive.
Running OSX 10.11.3
"Most of the processes do not need root access" - To create the VM network interfaces the vmnet_start_interface() in pci_virtio_net_vmnet.c function needs elevated privileges... how have you managed to get around not having to run xhyve as root just to have a virtual Nic?
No, Docker doesn't replace virtualbox. Docker and VB are different tools, meant for different things. The reason the article says no more virtualbox is because previously tools for running Docker on mac, required VB to run the Docker containers but this new product does not have such a requirement. It's basically removing that heavy VB layer from using Docker containers on your mac.
You can hook into the X11 socket using Docker, but I'm not 100% certain how this could be accomplished on a OSX or Windows. You might be able to forward the socket, but I'm not nearly smart enough for that.

Knowing how Belgium handles their minorities in Brussels, it's not a big surprise.
The fact that this happens now is neither a surprise. Salah Abdeslam has been caught, and there were messages that he wanted to cooperate with the Belgium police. Whether it's true or not, if they were planning something, and he knew about it, waiting was not a real option.
Neighborhoods like Molenbeek are notorious, similar to banlieus in Paris and Lyon. They lost control over it, don't know what happens there. This is happening in all big cities, but it seems this is much worse here.
Belgium has big problems between the Flemish and French speaking parts, and particularly in Brussels it's politically very complicated. For some city wide measures, they need like 26 police commanders to agree. I don't know the numbers, but it's very complex to get all people in line. And I'm not talking about the people in the street, this is about city councils, police departments etc.
I use my own wiki for everything I want to remember, and have used it as a GTD method. But in the end I moved away for GTD stuff. I used Chandler, and really liked it, but then it was abandoned. Then I used Quickfox Notes in Firefox to make a simple plaintext todo list. That works OK til now. Lately I've been using Evernote more and more, and now I mix them all more or less.
I've tried Emacs, tried the Eclipse todo, but neither caught on with me. I hear great things about Emacs and about Vim, and although I use Vim a lot to edit files on the server, I keep having difficulties changing to either of them for development. Maybe it's a matter of time.
I had a similar issue has well. I ended up in Onenote for years, and honestly I had no real issue. . . until my move to linux mint. Now I'm using raw text for the time being.
I've tried the C1 to run JSPWiki on Tomcat, but it didn't work. I guess too little RAM. I'm sorry to see that there is nothing inbetween a C1 and a C2.
>> The glitch had been reported by drivers of new Volvos who said the engine could cut out without warning, creating a brief absence of steering and braking.
Created by Volvo - who wants to be death proof by 2020...
Great to see that China requested Apple to prove that the US government could not snoop data on their iPhones, while at the same time the US government is scared that China gets encryption keys.
It's not only the recent fight, but the way they implemented it in iPhone 6, with the Secure Enclave. The fact that they created something that is so secure that they cannot hack it themselves blew my mind.
Is there any reading about how this is safe against side channel attacks? My go-to assumption is that any device in the physical possession of an attacker is only as safe as the attacker's motivation X is below the required amount of work Y to do a side channel. I wonder though why the FBI aren't just doing this - is it really not possible for them, or is this all just a bluff to make their targets feel safe using an iPhone?
The FBI is making a court case out of it because they want to obtain legally-binding precedent which will allow them to force companies to make it as easy as possible to access locally encrypted data. If the United States cared enough, they would undoubtedly have the resources to perform any needed attacks themselves. I'd be surprised if the NSA didn't already possess a copy of iOS's source code (Apple was a PRISM participant, which means prior to the Snowden leaks, they were voluntarily transferring all user data to the NSA for analysis; just seems iOS source isn't such a big deal after that).
The FBI is taking this public at a politically opportune time to try to make it so they can order this type of thing for any digital device they physically possess.
There's also a bit of me that thinks the timing is also a convenient way to influence the presidential election. Law enforcement groups are heavily Republican. Encryption has been a topic brought up in the debates. Dems usually say things like "We just need to ask nicely and they'll help us out, I know it"; to your average voter, this is proof-positive that that's not true, and it gives the law-and-order candidates remaining in the GOP field (which, I guess remaining are Cruz and Bush? This would've helped Christie and hurt Fiorina) a very powerful amplifier for their anti-crypto positions.
Probably means that there is now a restriction on the firmware upload page of the router, so that it won't accept any arbitrary image, most likely implemented via signing.
Doesn't necessarily mean you can't load your own firmware in, but it would raise the difficulty of doing so. Finding a serial console on the board, vulnerabilities in the software, things like that - more akin to jailbreaking/rooting your phone.
