It takes the students will to learn, most people see a quick road to graduation from HS Even valedictorian canidates duck the Advanced Placement courses because they know they can't hack it against the real brains of their schools. Note I didn't say they were dumb, offered a shot at a full ride at the state schools (In KY) is difficult to pass up. They take home economics, ag shop, drivers ed, and PE, while those of us with a genuine interest in learning slog through Advanced Biology, Chemistry, Animal Science, and Foreign Language to prep ourselves for college.
Moving up to post-secondary education doesn't help either, you take physics, calculus, chemistry, and engineering coursework while your peers enjoy phys-ed service courses, "BS in Social Work", and such gems as Geology 130, "dinosaurs and disasters " for a piece of sheepskin that is often makes them your supervisor somewhere down the road.
canaries in a cage were used to test gas levels in coal mining operations, when the canary died it was time to air the place out. A bad job description regardless of cubicle decoration
Maybe they plan releasing a new XML thingiee, that seems to be a popular buzzword these days.
BTW what will the next buzzword be????? SGML, nah, its too old;.NET, nah too confusing, there is already a.net, perhaps wetware (biological interfaces for computers) will be it, but I doubt that will happen
Step by step indoctrination
First, use your TiVO to record The Screen Savers episodes.
Next tape the kids eyes open and make him watch 24 hours of Pat and Leo, as long as John "I'm talking out of my a$$" DeVorak doesn't appear the kid should be fine.
God bless TechTV.
you've never worked in the printing industry have you, I spent a large part of this last summer in quarter-crew conditions, due to absenteism and goofing off
but on the analog market, the price of tube guitar amps droped signifigantly after the berlin wall fell, as the warsaw pact was still mass-producing vacuum tubes, whereas we were here with our beautiful solid-state technology
reminds me of an episode of "Big Thinkers" or "Silicon Spin" I saw this summer (Devorak was on it) he called it the 'scroll bar of death', of course, I don't listen to Devorak except for silly comments like that:-]
have any windows users here used the IE5.5 crash and bug reporter, I was updating my mom's HP last night and noticed it. Methinks an analysis of the data it sends upstream would be in order.
would be great cannon-fodder for the appeal process if it was determined to be sending user info upstream without permission.
IT/IS directors and admins for many school boards like the ability to buy a system/OS that meets their schools needs out of the ups box, so where are the cheap prebuilt linux boxes? Linux is for the enthusiast at this juncture, hence the prebuilders build "workstations" in the old sense. Windows boxen can be ordered from a great many providers, at any level of power, for a wide variety of prices, or even leased, which is particulary valuable to school districts, as the upgrade schedule is maintained. Find a business that leases linux boxes and support, and they could do it, but I don't know of anyone out there yet
wasn't the old mac "dos compatability card" a i386 with 4megs of ram on a card (was it PCI?). could we get a G4 on a PCI card as a "Mac compatability card" as a temp solution?
