You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

It's a good thing to learn and never need.

That question just begs for a certain answer, but I'm only 51 so it doesn't apply to me yet (or hopefully ever!)

Not a lot really. I stick to solving almost everything with C++ and try hard to avoid having to immerse myself too much in anything else that isn't the job in hand. I have seen many things come and go and I am very relaxed about not having bothered to learn them. Why think that you have to be master of everything? That is megalomania. You might think it looks good on your CV but to me, any profficiency list with more than three items looks like a list of superficial dabblings.

My clock radio's alarm came on with the local radio station's morning duo. Just like yesterday.
The traffic on my commute to work is backed up. Just like yesterday (well, every day).
I have to go to work and try to figure out why the embedded browser control is behaving the way it is in our application. Just like yesterday.
Someone is going on and on about the non-existence of a future version of an operating system. Just like yesterday.
I think I am going to snap a pencil in two, put it next to my bed and jump off a cliff.

Groundhog day is a theoretical absurdity, and can be disproved by induction!

Wait! There is something new. Rain? We haven't had any of that for a couple of months. Ah, but there is still sunshine in the Lounge.

Was there ever a moment in history when ground-hog-day and pay-day coincided?

Unfortunately Groundhog Day is hardcoded to fall on the day before pay-day.

Windows 8 exists
Windows Threshold exists
Windows 9 could exist - but doesn't.
And anyone that can't admit that is full of sh*t.

ok we get it, you don't think the next version of windows will be called 9, however until they release the actual name than we will call it 9 so everyone else realises what we are talking about
