Except that it is. How likely are the current rules going to be completely revised? It would probably takes countless years for anything to change.

You can never be great at whatever you do if you aren't passionate about it, and put in the necessary hours. This article is pretty dumb.

I agree. The author sounds like a whiner. "OOOhhh my manager expects so much of me..." Boo fucking hoo. I can't stand reading all these whiny diatribes. Ask all your fellow non-STEM friends and you'll see how much they&#

jQuery is clearly the one being adopted the most. (Something like 90%, at least from what I've heard on a podcast). Why mess with success?

I'm getting tired of these YOU SHOULD EMULATE X INSTEAD OF Y stories... You should emulate Bill Gates instead of Steve Jobs... You should emulate Wozniak instead of Jobs... Who cares?? I would be proud to emulate any of these great men.

It is definitely better to be a specialist than a generalist. In the field of high dollar per hour consulting, for example, you can't make the pitch "I'm a generalist!".

Come on, now! Achievement and having fun aren't mutually exclusive, like you seem to believe. If anything, they should go hand-in-hand. In your world-view, you seem to believe that you either end up like Andrei Agassi, or some middle-aged l
