yeah, a musician can do live performances of his own compositions and if he is talented make a living out of it, while giving away his music in whatever format he wants, but a programmer?
thesolo , now you have replays saying the metric is more complicated lol, why 1 meter == 1,000 kilometer or 1,000 mm == 1 meter how is that more complicated ? lolz:P
well I used to work at hp total care for a month (i got another job), at hp total care all you have to do is call and say you have a power issue, then you have to follow the troubleshoot steps to prove the cord is damaged, once done that they will ship it to you, UNLESS is out of warranty, if is 1 year old, the hp extended plans doesnt cover the battery(im sure of this one) nor the powercord(iirc). you have to buy new ones no matter what. now if you bought the bestbuy warranty (i dunno what THAT covers) i would simply go to the store and ask a replacement. I remmeber on nesting calls (hearing experienced agents) a one or two costumers that insist on getting new cords even tho the troubleshoot was proving more bigger serious issues , and they JUST wanted a new cord no matter what.
hehe im going to guess you're in USA, well for this very reason US companies outsource the phone tech support to india and mexico (here at Mexico we speak with a more more clear accent tho, try hp for example), AND THEN people complain about the ugly accent of the call centers in India, AND in Mexico.:/ we're doing the job you guys don't want!:P

"All in all, the book gives suggestions that will help you get a good grade at CS, " yeah and i guess thats a plus since the book is about tools for linux programming and not the book you're describing... and it does sound cool, nice post... for the wrong book tho.
well I dunno who he is, but in the 80's I remmeber a lot of TV shows about science, and the best of all was COSMOS (for me , i learned a lot from it) with Carl Seagan, imo nowadays there is not enough tv shows like that, or you need to have cable and know english (im mexican) to watch discovery channel and the like.
hey, now I see a way to say something against software patents on/. and not been tagged as a troll... I just need to become one of the most prominent linux kernel hacker around.:)
Yes, that's one of the must unfair comments I have seen so far on/. , I am sure that Dictator Pinochet was well supported by US and UK companies, but before that Salvador Allende economical plans were sabotaged in many ways for anything to work at all, another intresting thing before Allende's rulling years, in the 30's Lazaro Cardenas in Mexico extremly similar politics, but thanks to WWII he didn't had any issue with US and/or UK gov., both countries were very busy with Hitler to do anything against Mexico at all, if you read History of XX century you will find that Mexico is actually a country with a lot of luck since we still speak spanish and not english:P, atleast as a first language tho.

since the stupid arguing generates a lot of traffic... just go and fix your legal system, get rid of software patent laws.
