Whenever I need inspiration, I read that book. John Romero was an interesting character, but John Carmack is the whole point of that book to me. His work ethic and drive to continually improve his skills are so inspiring and rewarding.

Here's a way to get started: * watch YouTube videos Jamie Oliver - he has lots of great intro videos, including all the equipment you'll need. You can always get one of his books. His video on knife skills really helped me out. *

> If Visa added that one detail, this would be a fantastic solution. Agree that it's an important detail to add, but it's certainly not trivial. My understanding is that tokenization support varies from bank to bank.

It's not really an exaggeration of what it's like growing up in Palo Alto. When people marveled at someone's GPA, it would be how far above 4.0 unweighted it was. I think one kid at my school had a 4.8 weighted GPA. Anything
