I second the Bob suggestion. Thought it could to be to silly at first but it's really well rounded.

Leatherman Squirt. I used to carry a small pocket knife but realized the squirt was smaller than it and had a lot more functions.

I'm getting the same thing.

I've been on a software development hiatus for about 8 months now and it's been pretty restful. Not ready to get back to it just yet though.

I was having issues resting and resetting day-to-day and that burnt me out and I found what I'm doing now (whatever I want) to be the solution.

Bear mace and a taser probably. Spray the mace and back out of the area (read: run), if they continue to pursue you shoot the taser at them.

People who don't add to a diversity quota.

NCSU has something similar to the OMSCS. I took a few courses and had a positive experience: https://engineeringonline.ncsu.edu/grad_degrees.html

For those that need some background in Computer Science (say you have a B.S. in something else but want to learn Comp Sci fundamentals) there's also the programming certificate course: https://engineeringonline.ncsu.edu/PS/CPC.html

I've had an account on 4 Dimensions for (wow) 18 years now. I log in every now and then to check things out but don't play regularly anymore. I do see some of the same people there and I they still update and improve as far as I know.

Have you put what you read in Danny Flood's book into practice? I'd be interested in hearing your potential success story if you'd care to share it.

What about the T460p? Looks like it has the WQHD option but I can't seem to find info regarding the RAM (soldered or not).

The T460p has fully expandable RAM (almost 5 pounds), but it's a lot bulkier than the other variants (but somehow has smaller batteries), and for inexplicable reasons uses inferior materials. (Pure ABS plastic like on L/E series Thinkpads, not fibre-reinforced.)

Lenovo's model policy is somewhere between "annoying" and "fucking insane", every laptop is seemingly made by a different team and none ever talks to each other.
