Dutch people who don't travel normally don't have credit cards. If you don't have iDeal on your webshop you miss a big part of the Dutch market.

LucasFilm Games was a noteworthy studio, among many other reasons, because they weren't dedicated to making shooters when that was clearly where the money was going. The shooter that they did produce (Dark Forces) was also better than Hexen. The "lack of a way to lose" was what distinguished them from Sierra Publishing, the only other interesting video game studio of the era.

LOOM™ was novel within the context of the studio, for being radically simplistic with the interface, considering how far they'd already "dumbed down" the interface from spiritual predecessors like Zork.

More and more I've come the opinion that there is no skill someone is just 'born with' that cannot be learnt. It may be the case though that some people are exposed to events and circumstances that help them practice from such an early age as to have a huge headstart above others.

Anecdotally, I never thought I'd be able to draw, I used to think drawing (and art in painting, etc) was just something I wouldn't be able to do, though it's surprising and encouraging what you can do after dedicating some consistent time to practicing.

Also something I've started learning about recently is the art that goes into public speaking (from the Washington Uni Coursera course).

With knowledge broken down and explained by professionals, the mysterious becomes reachable through reasonable amounts of practice.
Pixar stories always descend into violent and frightening scenes.

It's probably a Hollywood expectation - "it's not a movie without a flat out terrifying villain"!

So don't go learn from khan academy how to emulate Pixar, learn to tell kids stories without fear and violence.

Tracy Morgan. He developed into a hilarious comedian. It took awhile. I didn't think he had the talent. I was so wrong.

That said, besides Rodney Dangerfield, I can't think of to many comedians whom got better with age.

I sometimes think the comedians whom get better with age need to have a few really big setbacks in real life. Oh yea, Louie Whatshisname got funny later in life, but kinda petered out. It almost seems like monetary success affects humor in some comedians?

Brian Moriarty wrote some of my favorite adventure games of all time.

He's a creative genius.
The problem is everyone gets paid too much. Our doctors salaries are far out of line with most countries , we have the strictest drug pricing laws in the world, and people love to sue. We also have a significant portion of the population paying no medical bills while the rest is overcharged to compensate. On top of that our health insurance is full of middle men like "PBM's" that do nothing but raise costs.

The combo means docs, drugs, treatment, and insurance are all more costly.

A fix is hard to come by but would work something like this.

1)subsidize the cost of medical school increasing supply of MDS
2)pass laws to protect physicians from frivolous lawsuits or at least limit damages.
3)disallow drug companies from advertising, ban rampant kickbacks to doc's that prescribe their drugs
4)ban anti competitive practices that prevent insurance companies from negotiating prices directly with manufacturers.
5) provide healthcare centers of last resort(the ER) compensation for patients unable to pay.

My last point is state specific and really controversial but it's based on what I've personally seen.

States with a lot of illegal immigrants spend an enormous amount for healthcare at the ER for these people. Around 1/4 of the people that came into the ER I was familiar with were likely illegal
and over 90% either gave a fake name or never paid. The majority of those costs are passed on to those with insurance. I lived in an area with probably 3% of the population were undocumented.

Since the ER is healthcare of last resort they are forced to treat you even if you give them completely false info with no intention of paying. Illegal immigrants know this and preferentially go to the ER because they get treated without probing questions or need to pay. They also already have fake ID's in most cases so giving one to the hospital isn't a big deal. This enomous cost gets buried because it's politically unpopular to say and because the hospital just raises prices in everyone else to compensate.
But that's literally what happened...

Islam and the War on Terror[edit]
ARI has taken many controversial positions with respect to the Muslim world. They hold that the motivation for Islamic terrorism comes from their religiosity, not poverty or a reaction to Western policies.[42] They have urged that the US use overwhelming, retaliatory force to "end states who sponsor terrorism", using whatever means are necessary to end the threat.[43] In his article "Ends States Who Sponsor Terrorism", which was published as a full page ad in The New York Times, Peikoff wrote, "The choice today is mass death in the United States or mass death in the terrorist nations. Our Commander-In-Chief must decide whether it is his duty to save Americans or the governments who conspire to kill them." Although some at ARI initially supported the invasion of Iraq, it has criticized how the Iraq War was handled.[44] Since October 2, 2001, the institute has held that Iran should be the primary target in the war against "Islamic totalitarianism".[43]

============================

Perhaps it does not take a leap of the imagination to see how this calls for mass genocide of nations without any objective discussion regarding terrorism. I never understood why the US considers Iran a terrorist state when Iran are fully vested in fighting against ISIS.
Again, I couldn't agree more with that. Most of my jobs have been with companies where it could go either way. Red Gate turned into an exception and became successful, and I stayed there for a long time. Subsequently I've come to the conclusion that, professionally, this was a mistake. For the first few years I definitely developed a lot of new skills there, and had opportunities that otherwise I wouldn't have had, but the value tails off after that.

When it came to the point where I absolutely, positively wanted to leave and nothing was going to change my mind (this is far too late - to anyone reading, do not do this), I felt rusty and behind the curve. It became an 18 month process whilst I skilled up in the areas I needed (again, Red Gate provided the opportunities to do that, so props). That was tough going. Red Gate's a decent company but, you know, when I'm done I'm done, so keeping up the motivation was hard.

This is all a very roundabout way of saying you're absolutely right about keeping your skills up. If you do that (and you're not an asshole) you'll have absolutely no problem securing employment. You might need to relocate, but you'll always find work.

Julia is mostly (> 65 %) written in Julia. There's some C (20 %, bootstrap etc.), some C++ (8 % llvm interface), some scheme (4 %, parser). I think it's one of the main points, that Julia should be strong enough that such things _can_ be written in itself.

Go was initially written in C. I think many consider C++ to be unnecessarily complicated and avoid it at the lowest level.

How many young kids have you met?

I used to be a Cub Scout (ages 7-10) leader in the UK. There were definitely certain children who could spin a yarn effortlessly. Though I can't rule out that being nurture it seems more likely to be based on a natural propensity.

Even in toddlers, with almost no language, some seem particularly adept at entertaining, which to me is a precursor for story-telling.

That's not being a novelist though, I think that's a different skill altogether. Novelists can be terrible story-tellers in person.

As a parent I've made up a few stories on the spot, it's really hard. Indeed just the telling part, with a story you think you know well (eg, for me, The Three Bears) is hard work.
The question will be: What happens when the government discovers that it no longer needs people to continue running?

You are unquestionably right for some portion of those failures, and I'd bet it's a large portion.

Nevertheless, there is an element of serendipity, good luck, good fortune, call it what you will, in any successful business endeavour. To some extent, yes, you can make your own luck, in that you can stack the odds in your favour but, if we are going with a betting analogy, it still doesn't entirely block the house from winning.

Many people are way too quick to take too much credit for their achievements. Everything we do is built on a foundation of what came before, supplemented by our own hard (and intelligently directed) work, and that rather hard to define good fortune.
And what's the problem of being implemented in C?
Seems that there's a lot of confusion between credit cards and debit cards and usage in Europe and US.

In some countries (including the US), a credit card is a card that you pay at the end of the month. You have a statement and you have to pay for that statement. If you so choose you can pay less and pay at least the "minimum payment", in that case you pay interest rate on the remaining money.

There are debit cards, with debit cards the amount is directly debited from your account as you use it.

Then in a lot of European countries, we have cards that we call credit cards which are actually deferred debit cards. The money you've spent is debited from your account on a fixed date at the end of the month. You have a credit line in that until it's debited at the end of the month, you're effectively borrowing money but since it debits your account, you're expected to pay it in full.

Often this is associated with overdraft facilities on the bank account which means that at the end of the month, if the money to pay the credit card bill is not your account, the account will be overdrawn and you will pay interest (which are similar to the interest rates for credit cards in the US, around 18%)...

So, the European system with deferred debit cards is different but in practice has a bit of the same issues with overpaying and high interest rates. It's just that the credit line is tied to the bank account and not the credit card.
For sure, and I'm not saying Blend's a bad tool (far from it). It was just total overkill for what I wanted to do and, if I wanted to use Blend well, I had to read another 800-1000 page book, after the one I'd read to learn WPF and XAML. It just didn't justify the time in terms of what I needed to achieve on a relatively short timescale at that point.
It depends if you want to be entertaining or informative/thoughtful.

For informative/thoughtful, you basically need to have coherent thoughts on a given subject before you speak. You can't just magically figure things out as you open your mouth, there isn't nearly enough time.

For entertaining effect, I guess it's more art than science. Try watching some good sitcoms and standup comedians perhaps?
Are there mainstream stories that don't have an element of fear in them? Even love stories have fear of loss, or fear of unrequited love, or similar as a facet.

They will adopt. As an example, Zuck explained this one of the previous F8 conf.

Then it's becoming VR/AR and these kind of things, and they're planning to adopt.

So, yes, in one way or another they'll live forever.
I've see a lot of comments about credit cards and people mentioning stuff like it's better to use a debit card and to "pay the balance off in full each month", but you are absolutely incorrect. Now it is true, obviously, that you should pay the balance off in full every month, not doing so is how the credit card companies make money, but using your credit card is nearly universally better Jan debit for two reasons:

1. At least in the US, you receive cash back for using a credit card. As an example, many cards offer 1-2% straight up cash back. Even if you used it in the most inefficient manner, such as just getting the cash back instead of discounted airfare or something, that's a lifetime of saving 1-2% on all your purchases. That's huge.

2. Protection. It's simple. If I use a card and get scammed (mostly happening in Europe I might add), then if I used a debit card it is my money that has been stolen and now I have to get it back. If I use the credit card? It's the banks money.

Now I know obviously that there are people who don't pay their bills, lose their job, or whatever and that's how the companies make money, and maybe if we all used cash things would be cheaper or something, but unless there is a serious movement in that direction you should always use a credit card, even the most basic one you can.

I'll also mention that this doesn't cover the plethora of various benefits that you can use for different cards: automatic extension of warranties on purchases made with credit cards, automatic rental car insurance, etc....
Alternatively, increased free clinics for basic healthcare (flu, checkups, non-emergency procedures) could eliminate a large percentage of wasted effort and time. Free regular checkups just a few times a year would catch so many issues before they became big expensive issues and it would eliminate the use of the ER as a general physician visit.

We're already paying out crazy amounts for doctors time and for expensive visits, might as well make the basic health checks free. No need to bring insurance in on matters like just having a doctor write "you have the flu. Rest 4 days and take this" when the entire operation is 15 minutes for a quick culture.

You might want to look into versioning your resumes. A 'version' column in your ResumeData could be sufficient. And I wouldn't store images as blobs.

If resume components are highly volatile and mostly text, I'd probably go for a simple KV table, instead of adding new columns to ResumeData. Then you could also put versioning there. Alternatives would be a JSON column or a proper table-per-component schema.

I wouldn't worry about "large data" if you're going with Postgres. You'll mostly enter that territory by storing lots of changes and updates, which just doesn't happen that much with a traditional

I'm currently working on something similar. It's a blockchain for verifiable exploits against open source software. The idea is that you can represent bug bounties as a series of smart contracts and have exploits run deterministically against a test case within a virtual machine. That way researchers are always guaranteed payment for working exploits and vendors can be forced to release patches on time.

I wrote more about the protocol and rational here if anyone is interested: http://roberts.pm/exploit_markets It's still very much in the brain storming phase so any feedback at all is appreciated.
