lordkinboaton What if you're not that great?

Great line, thanks!

lordkinboaton What if you're not that great?

Interesting, thanks.

I posed the question more as a realistic observation: I haven't changed the world with technology x or web app y, so I accept that I probably won't. I'm OK with this, I'm just wondering what is out there for someone like me: your average joe!

What I'm interested in is the stories and experiences of those people who are in the background or aren't the star of the show. My question was vague as hell, though - so all responses read!

lordkinboaton Ask HN: Why is it so hard to make good friendships in the Bay Area?

Try a new hobby. I began a new hobby about a year and a half ago and have doubled the amount of people I know. Some of them are acquaintances while some I see as "meaningful" friends.

lordkinboaton Ask HN: Where are you storing your passwords?

I use Keychain on Mac OS X to store passwords automatically and I make password protected notes for sites or apps where passwords are not recommended correctly.

I make general rules for passwords and follow those. I also use poor, easy memorisable passwords for various sites that I don't deem important but require a login and password.
