  1. This is good news on U.S. Students Shun Computer Science, Engineering · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I think that this is good news, now maybe the students in the classes that are left will be serious students.

  2. On Call Compensation on How Do Companies Pay for "On-Call" Support? · · Score: 1

    I don't know what others out there are getting, however the company that I just left has this plan:

    $2.00 per hour just for carrying the pager
    1.5X base rate for answering a call - Base rate being Salary / 2048
    4 hours mininium for an answered call, no more than 8 hours a night for overtime, so no 3 calls=12 hours

    If I was scheduled to leave the office at 5.00pm, and got a page at 5:01 it counted as an after hours page and I got the 4 hours

    They were pretty cool, I just didn't get to write code there

  3. Caldera Openlinux 2.2 on Caldera OpenLinux 2.2 review at Salon · · Score: 1

    While in a general sense I like the distro, it is definalty not the one for me. I can't wait to get Redhat 6.0 So i can use both KDE and Gnome on a distro that I am somewhat familar with.

  4. Slashdot Shutdown? on Support Site for User Friendly · · Score: 1

    Damn that would have sucker. I have several hundred real time newswires at my disposal and where do I come for news? Slashdot.org of course.

  5. Damn Assholes on A Bit About Freshmeat · · Score: 1

    I love the new layout. I can't believe that people would flame some one who provides us with such a wonterful free service. Without freshmeat.net(scoop) and Slashdot.org(Rob) running these wonderful services, I don't think that I would be able to run a 100% linux household right now.
    Today is my first day without a microsoft product installed on any of my personal machines and I am so proud of that fact.
    Thank you Rob and Patrick
