  • There’s a whole business around surrogacy. It’s a moral and legal gray zone - in some jurisdictions you can’t eventually adopt a child alone as a man.

    It’s expensive, too. You’re paying for the procedure, for the surrogates time and health care - and there are still no guarantees that you’ll end up with a child. Expect ~$100-150k if you’re willing to travel to exploit a woman in a third world country.

    And a newborn/toddler is no walk in the park. Expect about two years of lost work.

    Are you even in a financial position where this is feasible?


  • When the internet was new, hip and cool in 1997 it was the best way for a poor student to really get knees deep into networking and hosting. I just haven’t seen much reason to try anything else.

    I did use OS X for work when doing iOS development a few years.

    And in a perfect world I’d rather run a UNIX certified operating system. Linux support is just so good at the moment that I can’t really be bothered.
