Massachusetts has a new law prohibiting recruiters and employers from asking for your salary history. It is supposed to break the cycle of bad luck when a person has been underpaid in a previous job. I personally think it is a good idea.

I would recommend elm for a hobbyist and as a first exposure to functional programming that is a lot of fun. Your code will only run on browsers (as of now).

Scala is better for heavy duty work, and works on backend, frontend, simple android apps if you must, data science applications. It gives a lot more power and requires more effort to master.

I recognize that this is a joke, in the words of the OP. However I think SPA-type port knocking is completely legitimate, and I second the use of fwknopd. I depend on fwknopd a lot, so if that is not secure idea, I would like someone to point that out to me. NOTE that fwknopd does not depend on expecting a client to connect to a short sequence of different port numbers. That is not what fwknopd does, at least not the latest fwknopd. Instead, fwknopd listens for an encrypted packet on a specified port, which it will not acknowledge. The firewall does not allow the packet through, technically speaking. But fwknopd recognizes the arrival of the packet by scanning logs when the firewall drops the packet and logs the dropped packet. etc. etc. If you know this type of fwknopd deployment and don't think it is a good idea, please comment.

Again, I am not taking the OP seriously, but I do take seriously that people either don't know about fwknopd, or maybe, don't think that is good security (in which case I want to hear from you).

I just noticed that IKEA has a new product called SKARSTA, which is a hand-crank standing desk. This is different from the electric IKEA standing desk that others have mentioned. Lets see if this link will work: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/search/?query=SKARSTA ps. I do not own this product and can not recommend for or against it, just saying that it exists.

I have food allergies which require me to eat mostly home-cooked from-scratch meals, and I have a little system for coping with this:

At any time, I have a menu consisting of meals A, B, ... G (each of which could be anything I like to eat which freezes well -- usually entrees without the carbs). Because carbs are easier to cook on a weekday with almost no trouble.

However the quantities are what I call a triangular queue. This means I have

A + 2B + 3C + ... + 7G

(meaning I have one entree of recipe A, two entrees of recipe B, up to seven entrees of recipe G). At this point you can guess the algorithm for eating -- during any given week, I will eat:

A + B + C + ... + G

(meaning I will eat a different recipe for dinner on each day of the week). At which point I will have a smaller triangular queue of:

B + 2C + ... + 6G

Then at the weekend, I will batch-cook 7 new entrees of a new recipe H (which could be recipe A again if I really like it, or something new). Which brings me "back" to a triangular queue:

B + 2C + 3D + ... + 6G + 7H

It looks too methodical when described in writing, but this allows me to eat a different thing every day of the week, and yet cook only one recipe at the end of the week. For me that is a HUGE winner.

My freezer needs to have space for 28 entrees, which works well for every freezing compartment I have had. It helps to use (almost) square tupperware containers (instead of circular ones) to maximize use of freezer space. Each container is just big enough to contain one meal's entree. And to use postits to label the outside of the container with the date each item was cooked and which recipe it is. And try not to keep anything too long but for me two months (the worst case) has been perfectly fine.

Rather amusing what a programmer will think of in a Kitchen. But hey, it works :-).

The rest of the advice others have given also applies -- using some nice cookbooks, finding a pressure cooker, etc, etc. Also watch youtube cooking videos. There are a gazillion recipes on youtube, and depending on your taste, you will probably discover some cooks whose recipes you like and trust, who make many different recipes under some sort of channel or brand on youtube.
