Yikes - we were rocking $23 in electricity for a 5-room flat here in Canada a few years ago.

This is why we've started integrating SIM chips into TVs. :3

So, let's say you didn't want to buy my cheap TV. Market's full of TVs. Hardly a trouble to pick another brand, eh? I just give the consumer what they want, and what they want is a cheap TV. We show ads, that's why the TV's cheap. Best way we've found to cheapen a TV. Don't want ads? Don't buy the cheap TV. And yet, people buy the cheap TV and complain about the ads. We're not responsible for your choice, we just gave you what you voted for with your wallet.

Mm, over the years, I've known some people who were legitimately kinda dumb. One learned, at the tender age of 27, that flamingos weren't mythical a la dragons. On the other hand, I've known some people who were absolutely brilliant.

You might as well argue everyone can run the same speed for the same amount of time. If you haven't observed this yourself, I would think you've probably just travelled through life in very homogeneous social circles.

I've made my own (in a few incarnations) for my own website. I should do a writeup some day, I made my own Make and everything. I figure I'm at about 2 posts per technological revision, but given that's sort of why it's there I'm fine with it.

I agree with that.

My class-based solutions are more prone to failure than other solutions I've used before. It always gets more complex than it should.

Same here! I'd have done very well with an apprenticeship vs schooling, I feel, but it was never really an option for me. Although… I guess all that open-source software I helped with kind of was an apprenticeship in the end. Hm.

The article mentions a few near the end, I think.
