> Reading biographies of great people, seeing what people are actually doing and building makes me feel miserable, incompetent and good at nothing.
Wow, that's something I totally have as well. At the same time, I want to be (and am, many times) inspired by other people who are already more successful than me. After all, they did struggle, maybe with other things, but their success proves that it is possible to reach it / to achieve something awesome.
The struggle with a feeling of worthlessness is such a mystery. Why do I have it? Why so many people in general? What is the cause, what can be done? I try many things, fall flat on my nose, and then try to get up again. Sometimes, it's a hellish nightmare.
Hello Mohamed. I'd be very interested to hear about your journey starting today, whatever you end up doing, whether you persevere (what I hope) or not, no matter.
Would you start a blog someplace and post a link here so we can be part of your adventure?
It could, but there are many existing technologies (apps, libraries, languages) that are easier (and more consistently) turned into a container than into a static binary.
It does look a lot like Habbo. I've never actually played Habbo, but I know about it because I track phishing scams. Phishing scams for "Habbo coins" were popular a few years ago. (The good old days, when attacks came from kids in their parents basement, not major intelligence services.)
It used to be, in the good ol' days, "about 4 floppies of kernel and drivers", and "12 floppies of baseutils" with your added "5 floppies for emacs" and "1 floppy for vim" .. but those days are long over.
Nowadays, the most useful 'self-building' OS/bin stack is debian with build-essentials.
It kinda bugs me when time-sensitive articles (like those about software) are published without a date on them. The article does not mention a date when it was written, I assume it was recently. It mentions "2014-09-09 FreeBSD advisory", and the date today is 2014-09-28, so September 2014 is a good bet.
