I just recently got into Steve Howe. He's considered one of, if not the best guitarist of all time and I came across a quote he had that said something like he wished guitarists would focus on being musicians. Same thing as coders to e

Not much longer when interest rate payments are well on their way to $1T per year ($659 billion as of October), the bulk of the budget (66%) is non-discretionary and unfunded liabilities are $211T.

Oldest story ever told though. Someone finds something of value and doesn't protect their basket. Others take it or pressure them out. And outside of that - Florida is a state with no state income tax. Texans whines about Californians

I had a guy overhear me talking about when I ate iguana in Curacao and then ranted to me and my group about how it wasn't right and that they are endangered. And I'm like that's not true at all but anyway, what do you eat bud

I'm a non-believer. Counter arguments: 1) Not 55% from your article. Youngest boomer is 59. That's about middle of the 55-64. So split the difference, it's 43.8%. Millenials are larger than boomers. Gen X is larger than Silen

Ah yes! So APC was more like an RNS then. I recall now after looking up some of your groups' releases too. APC was the next best group as far as releases to RNS. I probably have a ton of those NFO files from back in the day and the cou

This is nonsense. If you bill fixed, then you're doing it wrong if you estimate so lean that you put yourself at risk. And it's a disservice to the client if you are really conservative and they pay a lot more than T&M would h
