They all already completed that over the past 75 years, there aren't any Jews left in those countries anymore.
they left willingly. Iran still has jews and a grand Rabbi. Many Jews moved to israel for economic reasons.

Sometimes you are not focused because deep inside, you know that the task at hand is not what you need. If this is the case, and you can admit it, then it is an excellent opportunity to reflect on yourself. Maybe you are at a meaningless job, and it is time to move on.
I just want to make a point that lack of focus may not be a bad thing.
... man this hurts deep but truth of the matter is that we need jobs to pay bills and not be homeless. I totally agree with you though

Would customers be willing to pay 20% more for electric power to prevent a once a decade event?
willing or not, they had AMI sold to them in some cases for a 25% increase. This 20% for a winterized solution is a no brainer

Totally agree, for me online education is a bummer because it has so much potential but most of the offerings instead of being great inherited the WORST of both worlds, old-brick-and-mortar education and web technologies. So to take a course I have to first sign-up for the platform, then sign-up for the specific course, then the material is arbitrarily split in micro-segments where you have to watch the professor droning on like in person education, then you have to answer some inane quizzes. The firs section is the SAME for all the courses, introduce yourself and blah blah. At the end you realize that the actual content was like 50% of a traditional college course. Do you want some credit? You have two options, you may pay 50-100 bucks for a useless certificate or the second option and the most insulting one, you take the course from a BIG NAME UNIVERSITY and you are requested to pay a high fee but the credit given is from a third-rate-municipal college for their "general requirements" course.
In the case of OCW you are presented with THE SAME EXACT course the kids at MIT are taking and many many courses have full lecture notes, quizzes, and so on. You could argue that the experience is not the same but at least the content is, you don't have to sign up for anything, the institution is actually world-class and the cost is 0.
i love how you put it. all of this micro organization and "filing" for ease actually makes it harder to follow. Give me a 2 hour youtube videos with stamps and i'll find what im looking for
https://documentation.page/
A documentation website generator for open source. No need to pollute your Github repo with html+css+etc etc files, just write markdown and point your domain there and it'll render it. Example output for a paid project (my own):
The main fear from multiple people is that the project might "go evil" at some point and add ads or similar to project's documentation. I definitely don't plan on that (that's why I'll charge for premium features!) but totally understand the fears. The project is already "successful" for myself, so how can I dispel these fears from other devs?
great profile

This may be true for small lifestyle type businesses.
But some problems can only be solved with VC money. Because of time limitations.
You may only have a small window of opportunity to capture a certain market.
If you grew linearly, and built up product idea A, in order to fund product idea B, in order to fund product idea C, then by the time you’re done with product idea B, a decade may have passed by. You’ve also grown older, and may not have the energy of your younger self anymore.
Also, a competitor, one with a larger funding pool, may have jumped in and captured that market, right in front of you.
I agree. I can use the example of flappy bird for this. Overnight development teams pumped out 3d versions of his game with better controls than the original. Sometimes timing is important for small players because other teams can take your idea and execute better and faster once they know the market is there for such a program or product.
