Not everyone is cut out to be a programmer. Sure, anyone can learn how to program, but learning how to program is not the same as making a career out of it "Many are called, few are chosen"

Actually, that's the #1 sign that you're meant to be a clickbait drivel writer.
Lo and behold...
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I stopped reading after I read this at the beginning of the second paragraph:
Quote: I spent over a decade earning a degree in computer science and thinking it was the career for me only to realize that it wasn’t
|
|
|
|
|
A decade! In less than a decade I got a PhD in CS, never mind an ordinary degree!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I took a leisurely eight years to get my four year degree. 
|

Interesting perspective. I compressed my four years of study into five years.

In one night, I came home drunk and got the third degree.

I agree with Karel Čapek on this.

0. You spend more than 4 years to get a CS degree...

There’s an entirely different set of standards and expectations for today’s apps than the desktop apps of a decade ago. One of these expectations is that apps work and share data across multiple devices. If a user has the same app installed on their desktop and laptop, they’ll expect both apps to maintain the same configuration and work on the same set of data. Taking it a step further, if the same app is available on multiple devices, users will expect to be able to share data across devices. As well as the rest of this month's MSDN Magazine

So Windows and Linux together has grown from 110% of the enterprise market to 115% of it. Does anyone know what the other -15% of enterprise servers are running?

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about beginners and the very understandable struggle to grasp programming that many of them face. This post is mostly aimed at those who currently find themselves in this position. Assuming you don''t know them all

Careful... They get really hard after the first hundred or so...

Lately, I have been trying not to think about grasping the non-understandable struggle of beginners to learn programming, but ... slippery: to forget it ... difficult as baby-eat-pabulum not run down chin to high-chair to floor !
Self in this position has joints that creak.
You see what playing in the infernal Fields-Of-CP-QA will do to a brain ?

The IEEE is just starting to tackle 2.5G/5G Ethernet, and two groups think they have the answers "This town ain't big enough for the two of us, sheriff"

They never should have narrowed the Ethernet pipe from half-inch to eighth-inch; we can't go back now.
