Wonder if there might be any positions for software developers open on some of these super yachts.

Doesn't Peter Thiel promote "seasteading"? It's like Galt's Gulch, but with Norovirus.

Huh, what does norovirus have to do with this?

It’s presumably a reference to the fact that norovirus outbreaks are common on cruise ships.

More jack-of-tech sysadmin/software/networking I knew guy who's primary job was (he claims) to ensure that Seattle local TV esp Seahawks (guess who's yacht) was available 24/7 no matter where yacht was.

This was 20+ years ago so a little more cutting edge than same would be today.

Well, that sounds interesting. Any implementation details? 20 years ago video streaming wasn't so trivial -- realmedia? And a satellite modem (or more than one, how fast was a satellite connection then?)
