This sounds entirely self-inflicted. Why not adjust your estimates in future sprints to better reflect reality? If you are truly in control of your estimates, you are only working super long hours because you are under-estimating your tasks. If you aren't in control of your estimates, you are in a toxic work environment, and there is no shortage of other programming jobs out there.

Sounds like you're over-doing your mock-ups. If they are functional enough to convince management that it's ship-worthy, then you've done too much. Use hard-coded, fake data. Use Lorem Ipsum text. Mock-ups should only cover those pieces a user sees directly, be they UI pieces or some output data like a report. They need only be good enough to give an idea of what the final product will look like and how the user will interact with it, so you can get feedback and buy-off in proceeding further.

Don't write a hacked-together but good enough infrastructure, or it could live with you forever - nothing is more permanent than a temporary solution which works.

That depends on what state he lives in. Several states (e.g., Kansas, among others) have laws which state that work done on your own time with your own resources is yours, and any contract clauses which state otherwise are null and void.

As always, OP should consult a lawyer, as even if such a law exists in his state, there may be finer details which could still prevent him from developing his plug-ins.

It's already here

Though, what is done is the building is printed in layers off-site, then the layers are shipped to the location and assembled.

I'm not sure why we keep talking about good guys and bad guys. With their invasive surveillance and contempt for our liberties, it's pretty clear that the NSA, FBI, et. al. are the "bad guys", too.

And when it comes to suspected criminals, it is trivially easy to convince the mob that the suspect deserves no protections. When it comes to the rights of the accused, I would much rather follow the fourth amendment than a bunch of scared/angry people who probably couldn't even tell you what the fourth amendment is about.

It also took just a few seconds to wind that watch, making it a minor inconvenience. How long does it take to charge an iWatch?

Clearly, the only solution to keep us safe from the ever-looming Boogeyman threat is to place a camera in every bedroom.

Examples?

I looked him up to see what was so crazy, and all I found was:

• support for campaign finance transparency (DISCLOSE Act)
• opposition to concentrating media into a few corporations
• support for universal health care
• support for LGBT equality
• opposition to the bank bail-outs when they were fast-tracked through in 2008
• a bill increasing veteran disability compensation
• and a co-sponsoring of a bill to fix the VA.

None of that seems all that crazy or dangerous to me

FYI, if you Google "TeX", nearly every result on the first page is for LaTeX. The two exceptions are an IMDB page for a movie and a Google Finance page for the TEX stock. It also helps that there is a tex.stackexchange.com site.

I would think they have already made it pretty clear with their voting records. The vast majority of politicians are in favor of invasive surveillance.

I think he was mixing it up with the recent story about flawed hair analysis.

Why bother? As long as they have the right letter (D or R) next to their name, the voting public couldn't care less what they do in office. The re-election rate of Congressmen has been over 90% for most election cycles in the last half century, and it never once dropped below 80% during that period.

asexual?

The summary states that it's only a few GB of data, so why not put it all on an SD card and keep it on your person? You shouldn't have to worry about temperature extremes that way, as even in the case of a home fire in the middle of the night, you'll want to take it along with you to call 911 as you rush you and your family out the door.

Naturally, you'll still want to encrypt it in case your phone is lost/stolen, but it's probably by far the safest, easiest, and most secure solution.
