Just a bit of feedback: might be nice to repeat the "Don't" in front of each sentence, even if it's grouped under the heading and therefore repetitive: I found myself being like "wait, it's telling me to backup

"Must know tech X" is exactly the mentality that we try to avoid in our company's hiring process. Most people would claim this makes your job descriptions too flexible, but the demand is actually incredibly specific: develope

To avoid the needlessly vague allusions to schools going on in this thread: I went to Princeton University for undergrad. I'm sure Bill Gates has a more nuanced view on college ratings than this article suggests. Welcome to media. We all kn

He's recommended so many over the years...probably the most memorable were the Hornblower series (great if you like ships), and G.A. Henty. then the Three Musketeers when I was a bit older. He's also always wanted me to read Dostoyevsky's t

This reminds me very much of my own father, though he wasn't a gamer. Coming from an older generation, his great love was books, and I loved it when he gave me a beat up old book from the 1940s, told me he read it many times, and "thought I
