Depends on what you want to achieve - professional or personal growth. If you want to use the certificate for getting a job, depends on how many companies value the course. I took a Tai chi for health course online - given that there were no similar instructors / courses locally available, I felt it was worth the money.

1) List your priorities. 2) Take top most priority - do whatever is possible. 3) When nothing more is possible to be done for top priority, go back to 1.

Find who you really are. In the sense of the one who says - 'my body...' , 'my mind...'

Technology wise I think I am a top software engineer - in the sense that I have learnt many types of programming languages / frameworks or can learn new tech fast.

What I totally suck at - creating something that people would want and tell their friends about.

Please add info about

1) How many people can you reach and get unbiased opinion? (This also depends on the product segment, still some info about numbers is helpful)

2) Cost of running a survey.

Please elaborate about getting the tech and programming info. I never thought that was possible.

Tell him its kind of like Lightning Mc Queen connecting to Mater and gang to ask for help when he is out racing and has trouble winning.

Its pretty cool to have your own language + source code of games like mario! Is there a page where you compare language features - i.e what motivated you to create your own? Also, what is your team size and how long you all are behind this?

Couple of comments:

1) What is the size of the pipes you are considering? Will it be big enough for humans to get into for maintenance - I was thinking what would happen if a delivery vehicle breaks down or a small animal gets into a tunnel.

2) Have you considered small blimps as delivery vehicles? The technology has got considerably better and should be less noisy than drones.

As a software dev I need code snippets in different programming languages, or how to for related stuff. I know mostly the answers will be on stackoverflow but rather than search on that site, its better to google for it. This allows search on multiple sites and the summary listings help decide where to go next.

Recently I installed bugzilla (developed in php). Its pretty amazing what people can create considering all were volunteers.

First I tried to install in windows, eventually gave up as the DB driver was not installing and had a whole bunch of compiling issues. Then installed on ubuntu after lot of bumps - I had to go all over the internet to troubleshoot lot of major / minor issues.

It seems lot of hard work went into php earlier (bugzilla needs a lot of modules) but now people are moving on to newer stuff.

Remember the times you were happy, reflect on what made you happy. Happiness is something that comes from inside, not by putting something in - even information.
