So, let's say you didn't want to buy my cheap TV. Market's full of TVs. Hardly a trouble to pick another brand, eh? I just give the consumer what they want, and what they want is a cheap TV. We show ads, that's why the TV's cheap. Best way we've found to cheapen a TV. Don't want ads? Don't buy the cheap TV. And yet, people buy the cheap TV and complain about the ads. We're not responsible for your choice, we just gave you what you voted for with your wallet.
Mm, over the years, I've known some people who were legitimately kinda dumb. One learned, at the tender age of 27, that flamingos weren't mythical a la dragons. On the other hand, I've known some people who were absolutely brilliant.
You might as well argue everyone can run the same speed for the same amount of time. If you haven't observed this yourself, I would think you've probably just travelled through life in very homogeneous social circles.
I've made my own (in a few incarnations) for my own website. I should do a writeup some day, I made my own Make and everything. I figure I'm at about 2 posts per technological revision, but given that's sort of why it's there I'm fine with it.
Same here! I'd have done very well with an apprenticeship vs schooling, I feel, but it was never really an option for me. Although… I guess all that open-source software I helped with kind of was an apprenticeship in the end. Hm.
So far, the only things which haven't reported my graphics card to me are the Tor browser (good), KHTML (good, but probably because it doesn't support WebGL), and Lynx (of course, no js). Firefox reported much less info than Chrome did.
I've been looking for work recently, and I've found I've been getting a very good callback rate compared to some of my peers. I assume it's because I write a good, customized cover letter for each application, sometimes going over the posting point-by-point. But I never know when people read them, I only get feedback about 1-2% of the time. I think that is why many may start with "I know no one will read this"...
