Exams don't suck when the problems are interesting. Exams especially don't suck when the solutions to the problems at hand apply to the real world.
The virtualization is not particularly quick, as you may get with KVM, however it's quick enough to tinker with.
Fair. I initially thought of one being a subset of another, but I get it now.
Depending on perspective, yes. The minimal functionality is that which is essential, and so essentialism and minimalism are one in the same in that context. That being said, essentialism is more specific. Thanks for explaining.
Improper word usage can be tricky to solve. It's easy to see this and think to use essentialism in places where minimalism is more appropriate. When that happens en masse, words blend together and lose meaning. It doesn't help that essentialism is much more rarely in someone's vocabulary, which lends to poor explanations or implications of definitions. Language is hard.
I see your point, but minimalism defined as "down to essentials/minimum alone" can still work. On the other hand, essentialism emphasises that meaning. As it is with language, the need for a re-definition comes from the loss of the previous one, or something, so how did you define "minimalism" such that you found "essentialism" a better term for what you're thinking?
Okey. Now i use OpenBSD on my computer, need to try.
