Don't reward bad behavior. I recently severed a relationship with a hosting company of more than ten years because there support had gone from great to terrible. We had a problem and they wouldn't or couldn't fix the problem so I switched. The switch didn't come without some pain, but now everything is back to normal.
Don't reward bad behavior, period.
I was in your same position in my forties. An old mentor gave me this advice...What is the general area in computer technology that you like to do and then build on that. Building, in my case was finding a job in data architecture (starting position) and start doing and learning.
This way you are interested enough to slog through the learning curve and still getting a pay check.
Hope this helps,
Industrial growth is always a surprise to agricultural economies that try to modernize using manufacturing as a basis. Great Britain in the 19th century, USA in the 20th and now China.
China has the money, but I'm afraid not the will to avoid these types of environmental disasters. A central government should be able to recognize this and make the changes, but if they have succumb to the capitalist influence pedaling method used in the West, they are doomed. It will take the will of the people to force the changes.
Welcome to the club,
This might work or be cost effective for small (up to 10 inch) flat quarter wave mirrors, but as you increase the diameter of these flat mirrors the glass substrate needed to stabilize the first surface mirror will be cost prohibitive.
My telescope will have to wait so that I can save up the $$$. This sounds cool in practice, but even at 7 cm the associated control circuitry and actuators would be prohibitive.
Cool though!!
I have pointed this out to my company's computer security guy and his response was, "I don't worry about copiers, that is a human resource issue". I have sent him this story. Maybe that will get him worried. Oh, and I cc'd the CEO.
However, if Monsanto used these studies to justify to the market (Congress, FDA, the consuming community, etc.), then there is a valid argument to question the acceptance of GM corn from Monsanto.

Publish the plans please!
Don't take your phone to a crime.
Ignorance of the law is no excuse!
These stupid companies think they can treat their customers like children and in the process shoot themselves in the foot.
I hope this statement of sanity doesn't fall on deaf ears or ears that don't see the logic in this new model.

I would like to see what happens when DHS cast its next take down and happens to snap CHASE.COM or some other big institution.

Would this lead to science fictions "Inertial Dampeners"?

Popular Electronics and Popular Science are the two mags from which I learned a lot. Today Maker 'www.makerfaire.com' always have good stuff too.
I have long thought that some of the devices with the energy star label were not that energy saving. Now I know.
Big Pharma won't like this. They make money by providing medicines to treat diseases not prevent them.

EFF might not have enough lawyers to fight the take down notices from the Church of Scientology... Whoops, I just got one.
They roll out the "We can't release this information because of National Security" excuse one more time.
