Beacon11··on Ask HN: Developers with kids, how do you skill up?
This. Although how dedicated you want to be with this is up to you, e.g. you didn't mention this, but I assume your relationship with your spouse is important as well. This is what works for me for my relationship with my kids as well as my wife:

- Evenings after work is family time. Focusing on kids if necessary.

- Wednesday evening after kids go to bed, as well as early Saturday morning, is skill building time for me.

- Every other evening after kids go to bed is time spent with my wife.

This tends to be a good mix that keeps everyone happy.

Beacon11··on Ask HN: Is S3 down?
Works for me, in us-west-2.
Beacon11··on Firejail – security sandbox
This says that anyone with a 3.x kernel can run this, but note that seccomp filters were introduced in 3.5.
Beacon11··on Ubuntu 16.04's new Snap format is a security risk
I came here to say just that. It also _does_ increase security if X isn't used by the application in the snap (i.e. if the X11 or unity7 interfaces aren't requested).
