Which is ironic because this is just another stupid government promise blowing smoke in the faces of voters while partying on tax dollars and bankruptcy.
Just like the bankruptcy of that other California town Stockton.
Soon it will come to Greece, Spain, Illinois, and the EU.
Your odds are better in the wild than in regulated hospitals.
MD's look at it in terms of... "Well, it will cost us this much to resuscitate, and she creates this much civil liability... so probably not worth saving."
HHS was set up to ENFORCE that this perspective is shoved down the throats of people with morals.
I am close with a health director at a major hospital and she is always telling me how obscene it is that people who are barely sick or not sick at all get euthenized in one form or flavor.
It wasn't like this when people took personal interest in the outcome of the patient. The secular/professional mentality has systematically eradicated all of that.
If you're a health worker trying to do no harm you are swimming upstream and probably a target.
Talked to a lot of people about this, although I can't say much at 36 from personal experience.
Seems like the niche guys can still get work, but it isn't as easy to find cobol, force.com, or quail once the contract is up or you get laid off. Cisco certs seem to pay off if you are up for travel.
I hear some older folks have some success with flavors of iOS programming if they're really good but they get the door slammed in their face a lot and you have to kind of make it look like you have a competing offer so hurry make a decision quick !
Interesting. Do you get the impression clients care about age or not?
Everyone has heard about the freelancer in his 60's who will never meet with anyone face to face so they don't learn how old he is but does an outstanding job.
Millenials make up more of the workforce than all other generations combined.
But I really don't understand why any hiring manager would want to take on someone who just thinks they are entitled to a paycheck without anything in return. Most millenial devs I've worked with epitomize that.
The PHBs don't want to keep IT guys on staff. They'd rather throw that "overhead" into the cloud. SalesForce is also riding that rocket. Cloud is a holy grail to enterprises, which is in MSFT's arena.
This more applies to government projects like Solyndra and tools of oppression like the EPA (crucifying people), the NSA (reading everyone's emails and passing the info to political parties), NASA (reaching out to religions that are crashing planes into our buildings), and the IRS (auditing, as explicit policy, specific political parties). And without gov interference and subsidies companies like Enron could have never existed in the first place.
When commercial subsidiaries fail it is at least in the attempt to make something people will want to buy. Greed makes jobs. In the hands of government the money just leads to ditch digging projects (at best) and dictatorships in the more usual cases.
Obama is making the economic growth rate HIGHER a year into the Trump administration than it ever was during his administration?
Fascinating. I didn't realize economic growth was such a delayed thing or he was still pulling the strings in secret. Too bad the voters probably won't pick up on that.

I am not trying to be cynical or snarky here.
The literal meaning of Utopia is NO WHERE.

Everyone could live forever. Comfortably.
When tylenol was introduced there may have been some people who tried to hide their stash, but I wouldn't call them the super-geniuses.
The premise here is blatantly false.
I agree that science and the click-baiters tend to over promise ... but hasn't budged? In this case I see the exact opposite.
Martha! This place smells and sounds like there are pigs living downstairs!
It's like we're living in a barn or something!
Wow. An argument against what we Americans call bacon.

This isn't to demotivate others from eating it so you can have it all?
My dad pulls that one all the time
This 36 yo thanks you for your recommendations !!
Do clients discriminate by age?
I'm asking bc I have no clue.
Seems like what they teach in school is incredibly far behind the curve / market.

This gets explained a lot as, "We have to make tech look cool so younger people will want to get into it ...".
... we're creating cliches and charicatures of truth.
Well yes, but
All husbands are not abusive just because the Lifetime network says so, etc.
Ever heard that people are more important than distant space rocks?
NONSENSE !!
A strange slashdot phenomenon ... Creimer gets involved and people start writing obscene things.

Because there are too many old people?
How would less older people lead to pensions and annual raises?
I thought pensions disappeared because too many companies just wanted to raid their pension funds.
Do you not like the way older people vote? If so, fine, but that seems unrelated to the topic.
Or is it just typical advocating for eugenics / misanthropy on slashdot?
The "Know it all but really doesn't" attitude seems incredibly pervasive at all ages.
The professional thing seems to dictate promising the world and delivering nothing.

Doesn't matter how many reviewers sign off on this.
The market is never going to accept KL isn't sending all data to Moscow.
Even if they truly aren't.
I feel bad for them.
They mostly killed fragmentation in computing.
FTFY
The PHBs don't want to keep IT guys on staff. They'd rather throw that "overhead" into the cloud. SalesForce is also riding that rocket. Cloud is a holy grail to enterprises, which is in MSFT's arena.
They also make a lot of $$$ selling their customers data to the government.

The way the phrase "ice pack" gets tossed around like elitest jargon is a reliable indicator of buffoonery.
