Since I don't have insurance it'll look the same, perhaps worse.

It seems as if the lesson here is to finesse the mob and don't fight it.

Bodybuilders have been saying this for a while. There are always arguments about thermodynamics and what not, and there is good reason behind those, but everyone in a gym who builds up a lean body (sans steroids or not) follow a similar die

> If you are ever asked an interview question which you've already answered in a previous interview, you should tell the interviewer immediately. That's sort of like saying you won't shot a man in the back during a war.

When it comes to a real world fight, he lost his first MMA fight. If he had legs and arms he probably would have won and gone much further.

What if Gretzky had been born with no legs? Or an aspiring physicist wants to invent a grand unification theorem but was born with an IQ of 90? I think my situation is obviously not so extreme. See my reply to rick888. I don't think you kno

What if someone was born with no legs? Or even a minor change in a single gene somewhere else that affects their stamina or whatever? Are they going to get to Gretzky's level? Never. Not without a radical alteration to their biology.

No, I'm just being realistic. Not everyone has what it takes to do just whatever they want. For me, dealing with people who think they can do anything (vs people who really do) is like dealing with religious people: it's a process of non-th

Well...not everyone can grow up to be a 3 or 4 star general, either.

That's nice, but you're ignoring the rest of my post. What if Gretzky never got better? What if no matter how much pushing and training and practice he never scored a goal? I'm sure there are many people out there like that. I happen to be

Quitters never win and winners never quit, but we're not all born with Gretzky's talent and also: if you never win and never quit what does that say about you?

I don't know what to say to that. It seems like uplifting but empty advice, the kind of stuff you'd expect from Tony Robins. Not everyone grows up to be an astronaut.

Similar thing happened to me in 1999. I realized Google was way cooler than alta vista and better at finding unknown things rather than Yahoo's directory. Truly the future, I thought. I sent in a resume to do some kind of work not developme

The controls are really sluggish. Is that from the game or the underlying tech?

I've gotten so used to the later kinds of job postings that I didn't really know how to react when I applied for the former job posting. I sort of locked up and thought for about 10 minutes before I just mailed off my resume and a link to s

I wonder if people will start using public-key encryption or something to encrypt mails so that only certain recipients can read them.

You can Visual Studio Express for Windows for free now days. XCode for Mac is free, as is the GNOME environment for Gnome/Linux systems. I would suggest you look for tutorials surrounding those environments.
