An excellent example of the downside of the US free speech right and the ability to proliferate ignorant rants via the internet.
I have no problem with the right to bear arms but that tirade does nothing to instill confidence in the ability of many people to understand what the US constitution means.
But at least I get a chuckle out of being reminded about how that.

There is something hilariously ironic in your post...

A little political for the lounge perhaps?
I listened for a few minutes. There is a basic flaw in her air bag analogy. A fire arm is not like an airbag as you can't crash an air bag and cause death. A better analogy would be that a car is like a firm arm as it can also kill. This of course breaks down because a car has a practical purpose beyond killing where as a fire arm does not.

I knew sheep were thick but that really does show it up. Still one way to exercise them I suppose.

I don't have the time or patience, but maybe one of you tinkerers has the desire to make a few million $ off my idea.
Take a controller (arduino fro example) and some individually-addressable LED lights.
Connect them and write software to colour them individually, one at a time.
Don't put the lights in any neat order, just scatter them.
Point a web cam at them, and write software to turn on each light, locate that light in the video feed, and store the coordinates.
Repeat for all lights.
Take an image (jpg or whatever)
Using the coordinates of the lights you just mapped, display the image using the lights.
Obviously you'd need a lot of lights for a really good image - but with a couple of hundred you should be able to get something recognisable I'd think.
So far so good.
Now, do an animation.
Awesome.
Now for total awesomeness, allow the lights to be positioned in 3D. You'd have to scan them in multiple times with a known camera angle - but you can handle that.
Now you have a 3D map of the lights - imagine the images you can display? Holographic-like images, messages in 3D - the world is limited only by your imagination and the depth of your pocket.
Feel free to commercialise your product -0 sell the HW and SW or just source the SW and sell the SW - whatever is good for you.
But next Xmas, when your product is essential buying for everyone with an Xmas tree to decorate, and you have to move house just to home the wads of cash that are coming in, remember me?

Sounds a lot like how the Microsoft Kinect works, minus the positioning LED's?

I guess you're kinda right - although it does a shedload more than would be necessary for a pretty dispay - prob a bit more lie the PS3 Move which has a light on the end of the controller.

This is the main problem with ideas... 
When you think you had a great one there's always someone that comes and tells you it's already been done. 
Although, it's also true that a lot of good ideas only took off after someone else was able to dig a proper product out of them.
Good luck!!

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett

Hello, all. I'm new here, and have a resume question. I warn you, this will be long. I've been on the job hunt since being laid off in August. However, a new fear has cropped up that has me truly shaken.
I feel I am exaggerating my experience on my resume. I've heard this is the type of stuff that can get you blacklisted from a company. I want to change it. It's one section; the skills section at the top. In it, I say that I have extensive experience with C++, Visual Basic, and SQL. I also say that I have experience integrating database interaction into VB applications. Everything else in the resume is standard.
The truth is that my experience with those is mostly from Community College and University. I listed those as "extensive" because of all the languages I ran across in CC and Uni, those are the ones I handled the most. I did integrate DBs into VB apps, but that was in a class (and a volunteer spot, using VBA). Since graduating with my Bachelor's Degree (Computer Information Systems) 2 years ago, I haven't coded much at all on my own time. Since then, I had a job for almost a year and a half, but they had me mostly doing stuff in FoxPro. I might have done .Net work there once or twice.
Since my layoff, I've been looking for work, but have recently shifted to learning C# in order to perhaps build a project I can show to the world in a portfolio. I'm not nearly at that level yet though. I've also realized I'm not at the level with C++/VB where "extensive experience" is justified to say. Not with my level of rust. So, for now, I'm trying to change what that skills section says. But how can I address a lack of experience without seeming weak?

Yes, I would consider the use of the words "extensive experience" in this case to be misleading. Perhaps you could replace it with something like "sound experience".
