Oh how you have opened a can of 'My pet peeves' So the tax laws are enormous. And ignorance of the law is no excuse. Then I contend the US tax laws are un constitutional. They are a cruel and unusual punishment for a citizenry th

I understand your point, but many of the no-reply (most) do not encode an email or website if you needed to talk with someone. Of course saying no replay is better than auto forward to bit/bucket.

Although you do not want to read, I recommend a book 'Warren Buffett's Three Favorite Books' by Preston Pysh. It is written in an easy to digest style. He has videos to explain every chapter. He boils down a lot of the Buf

List needs and wants, separately. Too many job ads list requirements which they will never find in a combination. As such they attract liars or exaggerators. Your posting should list no more than 5 REAL must haves, preferably only 3. Wan

You had me at Raspberry. Although they are small and inexpensive, the latest version is quite powerful. I think the only hindrance might be powerful video. It has great video, but some people need (want) more.

I suspect, if they do, they will just make it harder to enable but never remove it. As soon as you do remove it, someone will complain their page does not work on a customer site but works fine on their engineers version. It will be one o

My go to plan is based on debuggers. So whichever language you can find a GREAT debugger in is the one to go with. Second criteria would be a language which I knew an expert in. There are plenty of good languages, but when you are stuck o

If you want something built as quickly as possible, get someone else who already knows it to do it. Either a friend or pay someone. Becoming an expert is usually a side effect of building something. As opposed to the other way around. I a

Depends on how desperate they are to fill the role. If it is just a single class with no real world experience I would be hesitant to list it. If it was a grouping of classes maybe. To get real experience, find a non-profit that could use
