I would guess that he meant to say most "American" adults should know better.

desert* A good way to remember is a dessert (the post-meal treat) is so good you want 2 (hence 2 's' characters)!

And they also broke people on the wheel. Usually progress is a good thing.

I don't know why you think it is too late? Do you think people aren't going to embrace cross-platform .NET?

Yea, some of these people seem pretty out of touch with reality outside of the Bay Area.

I was thinking the same thing about location. If you can, move to a city where there is less competition for jobs. Midwest cities have a lot of jobs in banking and insurance that aren't as competitive.

I'm pretty sure they care about .NET and the CLR...

I had trouble remembering which question corresponded to which number as I read the article. It would have been nice to include the question above each person's answer (or maybe a hover over the number reveals the number, or something similar).

I think ASP.NET MVC is as easy as Rails for CRUD apps.

Hey Sam,

What is the problem/market that you think about most when you aren't at work?

Dan Carlin Hardcore History - Very long episodes covering history in detail. Dan is a very enjoyable story teller.

Common Sense with Dan Carlin - Episodes covering recent events. The host is opinionated, but very interesting.

Skeptic's Guide to the Universe - this podcast covers science, but mostly is about combating pseudoscience in society. The hosts can seem dismissive, but I agree with them, so I like it.

EconTalk - I'd say some of these are a step above pop Econ. The variety and high stature (some Nobel laureates) of the guests is impressive.

StarTalk - NGT, what else is there to say. I like the comedians he has on as cohosts too.

Stuff You Missed In History Class - less in depth than hardcore history above, but also more easily consumed.

How To Start a Startup - good advice on startups. This is one you listen to over and over again.

Startup - this one doesn't have a lot of specific advice on starting a startup, but is interesting nonetheless.

Lexicon Valley -Etymology of different a words and phrases. Good hosts.

I Love Marketing - covers direct response marketing. The hosts can seem self serving, but the early episodes are very informative.

I'm guessing StackExchange is partnering with them in this move.
