Re:Free unexpected MIT courses to kick start the new year on Friday January 26, 2024 @06:57PM (#39150602)
I want to know if you want to meet up occasionally to discuss/work on the course and the labs? (i.e., be the "other students" you mention.)

I was thinking about starting the the Spring 2024 6.5840 course just this past week. I ran across the course on YouTube while studying Raft and Zoo Keeper. I saw their labs and they have you build RAFT and a KV store on top of RAFT. I'd love to get the experience of building these. I have never written golang, but I am sure I could ramp up on it quickly.

How far along are you?

RE: wet trail. I agree. I did part of the hike in 2017 and some parts of the trail were a total mud slide. I enjoy my memories from that hike.
It's interesting that the Bucks or the arena owners didn't already own that domain. I wonder what's going to happen to it moving forward?
Re:Docker as an Integrated Development Environment (2019) on Sunday April 04, 2021 @03:47AM (#26687637)
I think I share your line of thinking.

What are the benefits? Are there down sides to being operating in the docker container for everything?

Re:The YouTube ban is un-American, wrong, and will backfire on Friday December 11, 2020 @11:33PM (#25395584)
How is YouTube protecting democracy? It seems to me its action silences a group of people in a democracy.

Actually I think someone hired a company to do the petitioning.
