  1. Re:Hmmm.... on Giant Mexican Telescope Launched · · Score: 1

    Amen! I gladly sign onto that plan. Let's pay attention to the USA. I'm paying taxes for THIS country, not for the adventures of others. If it's not a basic function of nationhood -- aka basically defend the nation from direct incursion/invasion of any kind -- then fughedaboudit. Hooray for teflon pans, but definitely not worth the price of the Apollo project. And Tang sure wasn't worth it either.

    And what the heck did Mexico actually contribute?! They don't bother to employ their people, but they can do little pet projects like this? Just when their govt couldn't act any more irresponsibly....

  3. Re:Or alternatively on Tech Czar Unimpressed With US IT Workforce · · Score: 1

    I'd be happy to get a Master's and PhD if anyone paid more than a Bachelors gets me. I'm making great money with my lil ol' Bachelor's degree in Comp Eng. Why would I waste $25K+ to get a Master's and make not a dime more? It's business and -- ahem -- govt that keep our tech level down by failing to value in cold, hard Dollars those who are more educated. If they want me to have a higher degree, pay me for it! But experience and ingenuity are what count in IT. And I have both. So take your degree and...you get the idea. Go find some loser who codes for the childish joy of coding and pay him $2/hr. I'll be on my Carribean vacation with the great salary I earn, instead.
