I have the same problem. all i can do is manage my own behaviour. So i initiated ruthless timekeeping. I charge for every minute. I have a punch clock and I punch in and out for every client as i work for them all day long. You can offer a

I know of no down side or turn off to being a consultant. I have more work than i need. I work with who I want and deal with zero politics. Plus people are happy to see me and when I'm done people are happy to pay. Working as an employ

Much abreviated story... I had pain down my right leg, needed a cane eventually. Then i read the book "walk yourself well" by a physical therapist and found a case like mine. She recommended a couple of odd leg lift type things. I

You can't. All movement is relative. First, you pick a point of reference and call that not moving, then everything else is moving in reference to that. There is no point in the universe that is not moving independent of choosing a poi

We have a server that we've deployed for our customers. It's a middleware-free web platform. It won't be released officially for some time but we'd be happy to have you evaluate it.

No mention of the fact that when harm reduction fails you get a disease. Condoms don't protect from STDs all the time, abstinence does. How about this for a principle. If you don't trust a person enough to marry them, then they pr

Oh my gosh, I just read the definition of imposter syndrome. I have to tell you. I have eight children in a small three bedroom house that is falling to pieces. We live paycheck to paycheck. I don't own a suit, or dress shoes. I would

I think that he's a really smart guy who actually would have figured out the problem if I had not interfered. The word credibility was a bad choice on my part. It's hard to write a better description of myself because its embarras

The contracts were still being negotiated. He didn't sign until several days later. I don't know if he considers it my fault, but he should. He is not the only person who has failed to consider my advice and lost, just the one to

I can't help it, I have to answer this. It was maybe ten years ago. My boss was selling his company. He described to me that it was a multi step sale. Now, I had read a blog post by Robert Cringely that talked about how companies steal

Official downloads from official websites probably should have a filter. I don't see those names as useful. They are a dark pattern, forcing you to click on the package because the name gives you no hint as to their function. If a cop

It is very likely you're putting off developers that would otherwise be happy to talk to you. You seem to indicate you are not a developer yourself, yet you think you have ideas related to scalability. If I want someone to tell me how

Ok, you said 'without a use case' but I think there are several. If you really meant you might not be able to sell it then, well, if I had a use for it I would pay. Honestly, I don't think this is a bad idea at all.

I find it distressing that in article after article the actual problem with the Affordable Care Act is never covered in plain language. The Affordable care act will not lead to affordable care. Health costs will skyrocket because of mandate

Why not say what your idea is and let us tear it up? You don't say whether you would use the final product yourself, just that it would be neat. Would you?

The lack of freedom to do what you wish when it concerns your health has always baffled me.

That would then depend on your server. If nothing really changes your server could plan the first run and re-use that plan each time. I know I can do that with Postgres, your server may be different. To figure out what the actual percentage

I may not be understanding your question so I'll re-phrase it before I answer it. You're asking how much faster you can expect to get an answer to a query if you bypass the SQL engine of the database itself. The answer would be a

I tried to get an unpaid internship once but the guy wouldn't even consider it seriously. I was trying to switch fields and felt that if I had a month or two I could learn it and apply for jobs in the new field. In most areas we'd

I just saw doubt_me and I agree. Twitter with a map would be doable. Would it gain traction? I don't know off the top of my head, but lots of problems would be solved.

It is hard to be positive about this idea. I think that may be the reason people are reluctant to say anything. No one wants to be a downer. I'll stick to the important facts. Take me or leave 'em, but don't ascribe any emoti

Fun comic! The contradiction in the middle prevents the view espoused from being consistent. And of course, like most ideas of this nature, the writer violates all the rules in the explanation itself! Lastly, there was no indication the wr

Steady as she goes. I remember seeing somewhere that it takes eighteen months to reach your prior salary. It took me longer but I blame the timing, I started on my own right when the economy tanked. If you want someone to talk to ring me on

We are looking at hardware as well. P2p isn't always an option but if you can start there, prove the concept, then you may have more resources and hardware may be less risky.

Whoa dude, I totally disagree with the statement that 'the network', which you refer to as the 'product' of Facebook is not able to be copied. In one sense, Google has made the entire Internet searchable. In another sens

How much of my customer's resources and goodwill we are prepared to sacrifice: none How much value we are prepared to subtract from the product: none Those questions are answered. The question we need answered is, what is best practice
