The über economy may be disappointed to hear about the anticipated surge in home-based working and local property redevelopments to support family-friendly working ours and distances. Can't wait for über buses though.

A mentor is a great addition when doing anything new. SSomeone to guide and advise, to answer questions, to be realistic and stop you from jumping early, and perhaps someone to talk to about oblique issues. I'd also recommend (without knowing what you already do) good food at regular intervals, ensure you have and are able to stick to basic routines, don't drink alcohol, minimise bread and pasta intake (no need to stop it completely), walk where you would previously get a ride, plenty of air and water (same as for dogs and cars) and to return to the start, if you can't fin a mentor then try ensure you have people to talk to and with, especially offline.

And don't worry about your speed or performance. I'm as slow as hell and manage successful projects, very hands-on. Find your niche, and don't expect to be good at everything.

If only life were so easy then a roadmap or checklist would solve everything.

Experience is critical. Knowing what works is useful but more importantly knowing what doesn't work is essential. Focus on solving the issues and not on welcoming good news.

Start small. Do you have personal programming projects? Did you _project manage_ them? No? Then start by critically managing your own work. Stand back and introspect.

Do you want to manage any type of project or are you targeting technical projects, client projects, web projects? There will inevitably be a mixture so you need to understand that. Don't trust anyone. Keep asking for justifications and proof. Remind everyone about the different responsibilities that are present in any project and be specific about each individual's responsibilities.

What are you waiting for?!

You are not crazy. Many, many people have come before you and asked the same. The reply is always the same. Yet the craziness continues, it multiplies and it leaves nothing in its wake. Nothing stirred in the embers.

And the DOM was.

Why do you think that?

I would re-title the article, _Generalization, generalization and more generalizations_. Why, this is a typical space-filler article typical of consumer publications, most visible in the Daily Mail, to provoke criticism, rage, agreement but not much else. People don't always fit in the neat boxes so don't waste time reading such common and regurgitated content.

Carefuly.

We surely need data mechanics.

Me too.

Twitter? Really?! I guess that fits with the overall _missive_.

That's crazy talk. And the described PM is crazy beef-jerky resource abuse.

If it sounds too good to be true, it is too good to be true. There is no magic. Where there is money, there is deceit and opportunistic theft. Don't believe anyone who tells you they will do a job without staging and proof.

Unless you bought those venture-backed rose-tinted glasses for those passionate about whatever the next fad is.

Open your eyes, people... Oh and this just reeks of con.

You don't do regular disk clones as part of your backup process?!

I am that person.

I thought this was about Cookie Monster!

I'm more interested in what's next for humans.

And I'm quitting the gym.

Click-bait. Random desires when it's clear that emacs is the same solution.

Click-bait, surely!

so angry

Down vote and no reply to a valid question. What a surprise...

I, for one, am not surprised. Are there tax advantages associated with this type of failure?

This needs to be said again, again and again. Keep reminding people. The software industry without documenting is reminiscent of how people talk about the building industry. Get writing, it's part of the job spec!

MIT postdoc decides to embellish his work by dramatic article before entering the Matrix. I'm not interested in a script for a hacker movie. And I would rather not rely on the MIT association.

I don't get it. Author downloadeds package and installs on hardware. Author saved $20 by using ripe atlas probe. The end.

I'm going to write a database or a CMS.

Please, save us from the cyborgs. I can think of 999999 things deserving more attention than this.

But wait! I want divining rods implanted in my forearms! I can see the benefits already.

But will they also pay for the divorces?

Is this for real?

Recompiling tetris with BIGMEM option now...
