After I went back to school to get another degree ten years ago, I dropped my first degree from my resume. Most recruiters look for three years in each of the last three positions, so I list my experience from the last ten years. Since I get hired over the phone, most hiring managers are shocked to see that my beard is snow white. Never mind that the color of my beard is irrelevant to the job.
Middle aged is generally defined as 45 to 64. You have another seven years to go before the barista fresh out of college starts offering you a senior citizen discount.
With much of the San Francisco Bay Area and Central Valley expected to be underwater by 2100, it's going to take a lot levees to hold back rising water levels. The city/state/federal governments WILL NOT raise taxes to pay for this. With retirees outnumbering workers in 2030, the tax base will decline for 70+ years. Politicians in good conscience can't tax retirees who benefited from BIG OIL all their life.
The average American reads at the sixth or seventh grade level. The Econmist is college level. If you want to improve your reading comprehension, read The Economist or The Wall Street Journal.
I wouldn't worry about his coding. His comments might be more readable than most comments by programmers.
Precisely speaking, Star Wars isn't SciFi, it's fantasy with SciFi elements.
The precise term you're looking for is "space opera".
Space opera is a subgenre of science fiction that emphasizes space warfare, melodramatic adventure, interplanetary battles, chivalric romance, and risk-taking. Set mainly or entirely in outer space, it usually involves conflict between opponents possessing advanced abilities, futuristic weapons, and other sophisticated technology. The term has no relation to music, but is instead a play on the terms "soap opera" and "horse opera", the latter of which was coined during the 1930s to indicate clichéd and formulaic Western movies. Space operas emerged in the 1930s and continue to be produced in literature, film, comics, television and video games.
I have Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Scanner and Windows Defender installed on my Windows systems at home. I haven't had any issues since the Windows XP era.
Oak tree caterpillars are a big nuisance this year in the Palo Alto foothills above Silicon Valley. The fuzzy buggers fall out of the oak trees and try to hitch a ride on anyone standing nearby. Found one crawling up the wall in my office one morning.
The BAT! was an Eudora clone back in the day. Like the Crackberry from the same era, people got use to a bad interface and found it difficult to switch over to something different.
The first men on the moon had to use a pen to fix a broken switch on their lunar module and return home to earth, British newspaper the Daily Mirror reported on Monday ahead of a new television documentary.
Starving government of tax revenues is like a husband who buys a new set of golf clubs and expects the wife to feed the kids and pay the bills on what little is leftover from the paycheck.
I was in college after the dot com bust. Everyone and their grandparents switched from computers to healthcare. Healthcare became the new money major that guaranteed a high-paying job, if you didn't mind the ass wiping and bedpan swapping that went with it.
Stick around for four to eight billion years when the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are merging. The Galactic Enquirer will have extensive coverage on which stars are in or out of rehab.
Years ago I used to work at Japanese companies like Fujitsu and Sony. Ever since then I still get contacted for jobs that require being fluent in Japanese. I even got a international call from a hiring manager in Tokyo who tried to interview me in Japanese. That was weird.

Some of my middle school friends got caught breaking into a Radio Shack store to steal... drumroll, please! ... a TRS-80.
When guidance counselors and job recruiters are trying to cash in on AI jobs with $1M+ salary, it becomes a fad.
