    Newbie Duty[^]:

    First of all, not all programmers would make great entrepreneurs. But the parallels between the skills required in programming or better yet software engineering or development, and entrepreneurship is striking.

    Present company included, of course

    Toss a coin to your blurber, gracious billionaires! Because I always believe in sharing ridiculous opinions...

      And here's how to know what makes a billionaire?[^]

      I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

          M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
