This is a post by Joel Spolsky. The original post is linked at the bottom.

This is such a common question here and elsewhere that I will attempt to write the world's most canonical answer to this question. Hopefully in the future when someone on answers.onstartups asks how to split up the ownership of their new company, you can simply point to this answer.

The most important principle: Fairness, and the perception of fairness, is much more valuable than owning a large stake. Almost everything that can go wrong in a startup will go wrong, and one of the biggest things that can go wrong is huge, angry, shouting matches between the founders as to who worked harder, who owns more, whose idea was it anyway, etc. That is why I would always rather split a new company 50-50 with a friend than insist on owning 60% because "it was my idea," or because "I was more experienced" or anything else. Why? Because if I split the company 60-40, the company is going to fail when we argue ourselves to death. And if you ju

Promoting images with Docker & OpenShift

You need to have the oc command installed to interact with OpenShift from the command line. This can be installed from https://github.com/openshift/origin. Docker is also required. Search online for information on how to do that.

These are the commands to ensure your system state is such that you can perform an image promotion between staging and production.

Vim primer

Modes

• Normal: the mode that you are generally in at the beginning of a session. One does most of their moving around in this mode.
• Insert: the mode where you are inserting text.
• Visual: the mode for selecting text.
• Command: the mode where you use commands for reading/writing files and managing your session.

I imagine I am missing some, but these are the ones I use the most.
