You can try to take on hobbies that don't require a lot of stuff. Also, if you can keep the stuff for a hobby together on a storage bin is easier to put away when you loose interest and bring it back when you want to do it again.

I don't know if this is popular in the USA. We also have a "no gifts" rule. Instead we do a secret santa. We do a real gift and an optional gag gift. It works wonderfully. Except this year somebody sent lots of gifts for two

As much as we want to have equality between the sexes. This explains why we always end up with double standards. It is an asymmetric relationship at the biological level.

Sometimes a border is not a border, it is scar. An ethnic group was already living in that area and one day they find themselves at one side of the fence.

A small note. I read a Statfor report that North American Rivers were very important.

I agree with you on both examples. Education and housing. But I wouldn't conclude it is government intervention that causes the problem. It is the wrong type of intervention. IMHO.

Ordinary citizens will suddenly have this huge power. And then they have to go to their former lives. They would be very easy to buy. May be a job offer as consultants after their term is over.

The problem of randomly select citizens for office is that they are as vulnerable to be corrupted as the current elected officials. But, I would like an approach where we randomly select "electors". They are sequestered, listen to

May be another example of this. A lot of white people in the south didn't own slaves. They were very poor but they opposed emancipation because they didn't want to be equal to the freed slaves. I don't really know how histori

I would like an approach where we randomly select "electors". They are sequestered, listen to the arguments of the candidates, hold several election rounds and finally come out with he elected officials. Like a jury. They would be

> On the rare occasion I ever felt I was not being taken seriously,... Also don't forget that we as men often feel the same. Not all of us are super confident. I would say most aren't. And we are also bullied and pushed around.

For 4. Limit the number of petitions per company (npc) to a ratio of the total number of regular us employees (ne). i.e. (npc - 1)/ne <= .1 A tiny company of 10 can have 2. A small company of 100 can have 11 A medium company of 100

I completely agree with you. I was just trying to stress the importance of having capable engineers. It seems that people forget about it when they outsource. Furthermore, you actually need better engineers if you outsource.

I have seen the same problems on in-sourced projects. You still need capable engineers. May be managers who outsource their projects tend to be more clueless. I give you that.

A lot of those questions are taken care on the forums. People tend to stumble on the same sticking points. But it part of learning to learn in this new medium.

:) We do have a lot of new cool database technologies. They may be the right choice in some specific domains. I still think RDBMs are the best generic choice. And good RDBMs design skills a core developer competence.

Following the juror model... Step 1 - From the district lists randomly select a small number of electors. Step 2 - Sequester the electors. Step 3 - The candidates present their proposals, background, arguments, counter arguments.

In my own experience. It is about skills. But if you don't have the skills you need more methods and process. The less skilled is your team, the more processes you need.

Oh yes. A big mystery to me is why New Hampshire (and I suppose the rest of New England) is so expensive. We are in a rural setting, and there is plenty of land, we are an hour from Boston, but even if you go farther a way, the house prices
