This is about what Canonical is prepared to support for the next 5 years.
Catalyst is closed source so the support they can offer can only be as good as what AMD is prepared to offer. If AMD have announced that a replacement for it will be released imminently then it follows that AMD themselves probably aren't prepared to support Catalyst on Linux for the long term. Therefore, why should Canonical commit to supporting it in the long term either?
The specialisation that you seek will only come from gaining years of actual work experience. Any smart employee should see that you're smart enough to learn any language that they throw at you. After all, apart from the various strengths and weaknesses of different languages/platforms its just syntax. The real smarts is in solving business problems and identifying the assumptions that you make in your implementation rather than learning syntax.
At the bottom of the first page of the Flexbeta review I noticed a window warning me that 'my computer may be suffering from frequent crashes..etc etc' and that I should click 'Yes' to 'scan my computer'.
It actually took me a couple of seconds and a second look to realise it was an ad and not another IE7 screenshot.:D
The thing that really bugs me about all this is the fact that this new species has a trademarked name. If someone invents (?) a completely new species, is there automatically a universal scientific name that can be derived?
Will our over-commercialised society one day come to the point where we no longer talk about our cats, dogs, rabbits but instead refer to our GloFish(tm), AquaMice (tm), Psy-Cats(tm), or ElastoBirds(tm)?

Sorry, 'employee' should be 'employer'
