Re: Post Race!
When I was young my guardian (long story) was a technology guru. He taught me Visual Basic when I was like 9 years old. I mostly just made simple designs and made if/then statements and he would code the actual stuff for me. It was pretty cool. [side-story] he passed away when I was 13 and last month I was invited to a 10 year remembrance lunch where he worked. I heard stories about how smart he really was. Crazy how much of an impact one person can have on so many people.

People can make a huge difference in somebody's life. I'm glad that you had a positive experience with somebody like that because all to often we hear about the negative experiences. So it's nice to hear a change of tone

Re: Post Race!
I like programming, too, but I'm not really regretting my career path. Had I not started in Biology, I may not have ended up programming in an area that is quite as interesting as what I am working in. Most programming jobs don't let you go walking up streams picking up rotting fish as part of your job.

Re: Post Race!
I do not have a clearly defined career path yet. My major concentration in university is Information Systems Security with emphasis in Digital Forensics. I am very interested in the field of digital forensics and have learned so much about secret hiding places on your PC that I didn't know about. I am currently working as a police dispatcher and am Bored of this job, but I enjoy the law enforcement field in general. I also work as a communications technician programming radios for the sheriffs department. I want a technical job in law enforcement but which job exactly, no clue.
I am pretty much just going with the flow. I am hoping that the sheriffs department offers me a full time job that they have been hinting at for a while. That job will lead me more in the technical direction that I want.

I don't hate my dispatching job. I am actually doing a lot of extra responsibilities which is nice. I'm leading a major upgrade project for our entire communications center to include all new furniture, upgrade to our phone system, and radio system. Pretty exciting, great to add to a resume i guess

Re: Post Race!
Programming/development is my second career. I started out in commercial photography but realized in late-1993 my darkroom skills would eventually become obsolete, and that's exactly what happened. Giving up my career at the age of 27 turned out to be one of the smartest moves I ever made.

Yeah, that last roll of Kodachrome film was processed about a year and a half ago.
They were supposed to shut it all down at the end of 2010 but so many people still had Kodachrome sitting around they kept it running for almost three more years.

I don't know about that. Digital forensics can get pretty nasty. You have to be able to really tolerate the sight of silicon (no, NOT silicone, which is generally less objectionable).

I hide things under the keys in my keyboard.

Re: Post Race!
I hide sandwiches under the keys in my keyboard. You might think that would be hard, but it isn't if you divide the sandwich up enough...and let it age long enough. There's nothing like the feel of typing on real grass....at least I think that's what the green stuff is.

Hmm interesting enough you might be able to get away with hiding things under the keyboard. I have yet to read in my text books about looking under the keyboard. I just know how to search unallocated space and slack space on hard drives.

Re: Post Race!
If I've ever "hidden" anything in my keyboard it's all the beer I've spilled on them over the years. It inevitably leads to buying a new one...

Its never too late, my brother changed careers completely at 28, went and did a degree as a mature student and moved from being a Chef, to move into Youth and Community work, and now he runs his own charity.
You never know what path you might take.
