2 things I don't need and 1 that Pocket already provides...all from a site that sucks on mobile...

Can't say I'm all that impressed.

Pocket has been Wonderful so far.

Wow...the Mac rumors buying guide but prettier with less info. Is there any real insight or innovation here above and beyond that?

I tend to do that naturally, but in an effort to get more experiences in life, I try to always go for something new.

For me, I think absolutely. Sometimes to the point where I don't consider myself a 'real' programmer and feel like a faker any time I'm talking with someone more skilled than myself. I've always been much better at just getting things done than learning an entire catalog. Maybe it's because I spend half my time in the design space, where I also have no training and also feel like a 'faker'.

I've looked in various apprenticeships like thoughtbot's and others, but at my age (30) I am not their usual target demo.

It's why I'm so grateful for hackernews. i learn a lot of great stuff here from the 'real' developers that I can then apply in my day-to-day.
