  1. CIS vs. CS round 2001 on CS vs CIS · · Score: 1

    I know for a fact, and from experience that larger companies pay a difference for the degrees simple because of what recently happened to me. I applied at a larger company (Nameless b/c all is not finished with negotiations yet), and was told I would be brought on for say... 60k... then told two weeks later after they had done background checks, that they have to knock that down b/c I don't have the 'higher' degree, no matter what that degree in, it's part of company regulation (the boss that is hiring me didn't know it was in place), so I would go with the higher degree... I would have earlier if I wasn't such a dope and exploring the world on my own... to each their own path.

  2. Re:Ask Slashdot: Age verification on the internet on Possible GPL Violation from Compaq UPDATED · · Score: 1

    They always screw you with items in the fine print of things. I recently signed up to a free age verification that was said to be 100% free, even within the fine print.. but it also forwards you info that you have to FURTHER check, and says how another site sponsers the free age check, you therefore must pay them blah blah a month in order to keep it active, but if your smart you can cancel the second site's membership and get away scott free with free agecheck verification. Too many age verifiers though, they should make it a single universal age verification tool.
