Ask HN: Advice for someone who stagnated in their career. HelpIMAGE

Ask HN: Advice for someone who stagnated in their career. HelpHi HN. 50 year old here. I had a mixed career in corporate roles (product dev, bus dev - first 10 years of working), then a startup (did ok, but more learning than earning), and now have been teaching in a university for 10 years. Along the way I built a niche out of running startup programs for other institutions.I enjoy the work. It's fun and people definitely enjoy and tell me they benefit from what I do.But it's not enough financially. The university doesn't pay much and I am just breaking even each year and dependent on consulting income to pay for growing family expenses. Every time I get brought in to a new consulting project I knock it out of the park. But those projects are one-offs and seem to be dwindling. Side projects I spin up come to low thousands a year and while I enjoy them, don't do anything to take the financial pressure off. When I was 25 I used to pride myself on being able to live on a shoestring out of a backpack, but it's a different story with a wife and kids.

40 Years of Cisco, the Real Story Behind Cisco's "Innovative" FoundingIMAGE

40 Years of Cisco, the Real Story Behind Cisco's "Innovative" FoundingHappy 40th Birthday, Cisco! Time for some truth-telling from a certified network nerd (CCIE gang represent!) who's had enough vendor Kool-Aid to float a datacenter. Let's skip the fairy tale version and dive into what really happened, shall we? That romantic story about two Stanford lovebirds inventing the multiprotocol router in their living room? Yeah, about that... The real story: A team of Stanford engineers, led by Bill Yeager, had already built and deployed working routers across campus. That core software? Written by Yeager. (Spoiler: It becomes the foundation for Cisco IOS.) Enter our "founders," Len Bosack and Sandy Lerner, who saw this Stanford-developed tech and thought, "Hey, this looks profitable!" While still cashing Stanford paychecks, they made some tweaks and started selling it. When Stanford's licensing office found out... let's just say the lawyers weren't sending birthday cards. But here's the kicker: Stanford settled for a measly $19,300 plus $150k in royalties (ab
