Really good advice. I tried blocking some sites but whenever my 'bad side' comes up again, I always find a way to get around the block and visit the site anyway. Any recommendations on blocking a site indefinitely?

San Francisco seems like a terrible place to open up anything to do with bicycles. Everyone will just ride down the hill, park the bike, and get an uber later. Some poor asshole will have to take them all back up.

I've dealt with the same problem as you have. In high school, I picked up programming and before I knew it, I was programming almost all of the time. It's great to be able to have an idea and build it instantly. However, life is n

Yeah, thanks for clearing that up for me. Obviously, you can't rank 'programmers' on a linear scale, but you can rank programmers that are suitable for your type of work on a linear scale. Also, all of the best programmers ha
