We've all been there!
Anyone with decent exposure to math has at least SEEN pascals triangle, so I think it is a fair question. Try as you might to make them comfortable, they are probably still nervous regardless.
tl;dr Looking into systems administration and do my programming at home on my own time and my own projects.
Kudos to you for your decision. A book was written about marriage, long term monogamy, and (at least for me) showed that maybe sex shouldn't be this huge deal we currently make it out to be. It's called Sex at Dawn by Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jetha.
Edit: guess I should add I primarily work in Python, C, and Javascript.
I've stopped letting myself get frustrated over this a while ago. The intention of basically all movies are to entertain. And for those that do not know otherwise, shiny beeping flying objects floating around on a screen conveying 'logic' and 'paths' will always be more comprehensible compared to a command prompt.
Oh, and Hi :) I lurk a lot too.
Instead of a blacklist approach like abp, you control which cross-site requests are allowed. Most of the time all a site needs is one xsite request to the domain hosting its static resources
HTTP OPTIONS method is exactly that. Mind your response headers, they can convey plenty of information about your resources: allowable methods, request and response types mime-types (you can rank type preference as well).
> In practice, does anyone write web service clients that use, and are driven by, link discovery? ...
Documentation is always useful. But HTTP can almost be self documenting for well thought out and linked resources. For link discovery, maybe a standard like HAL (http://stateless.co/hal_specification.html) or similar would be of interest. There is another proposed way as well, I can't think of it at the moment but will add an edit if/when it comes to me.
EDIT: I had poor wording, there are several 'json hypermedia specifications'. Another would be (Collection+JSON http://www.amundsen.com/media-types/collection/). Hope that helps.
For me, personally, the lack of learning or something challenging would be the deal breaker.
PS - And since you are near/in SF, take another posters advice and do some hiking in desolation wilderness near Tahoe's south shore. Mt. Tallac makes a great day trip and it's easy to get to with a fantastic view. (Contrary to the name, it is beautiful.)
Seeking a shift to (probably entry level) linux system administration.
Looking to transition away from web development. 3+ years wearing several hats, and would like to really focus on the administration side of systems and networks. Currently I do mostly web development related activities involving javascript apps, restful web services, automated builds and deployments, with some cross-over into the admin domain.
Some bullet points - Programming languages: Python, Java, Javascript, C Web Development: Full stack from Backbone.js + Bootstrap driven webapps to web services and server configuration/management/application deployments. Largely Python focused, but also have experience with PHP and Java. Installation and configuration of httpd, nginx, tomcat, varnish, uwsgi, svn, Jenkins/Hudson, postgres/postgis and more. Familiar with e.g.: iptables, openvpn, postfix, and Bash scripting.
Aside from the usual bullet points I have set up PKI's, written a static website generator (for personal use), and have some experience with GIS technologies from a previous position.

In GWAN's case (using Firefox) the rule was:
p, h1, h2, h3, h4, ul, ol, legend, label { -moz-user-select: -moz-none; }
