During a job interview I was asked what would be a personal goal of mine in the next five years, and my answer was 'understand completley all the technical postings I read on HN'

Today, there are less and less technical posts, and more fanboyism, rumour, gossip.

I guess Gail Wynand took over YC ---- Let's let Roark back.

Turnover is a big challenge. Pinoys aren't always motivated purely by cash. I lived there from 2008-2010 and filipinos are very receptive and intelligent people.

Re:Ask HN: Linux on Windows? on Wednesday September 28, 2011 @07:17PM (#3050350)
just like your doing with virtualbox. thats fine

next do this

* make sure you're using bridget network adapter (in the vm settings inside the virtualbox gui)<br \>

boot your linux image in virtualbox. login root , set up a ssh server.

> if deb apt-cache search sshd , if rhel/centos yum search sshd, then go ahead install...

obtain the IP: (type ifconfig) and then you may go ahead , minimize the virtualbox (like hidden),

* crank up a putty terminal via ssh and login baby!
