Why not check out education? I've worked at a Boston-area uni for the last two years, and we've doubled our IT staff since I started (the oracle db team alone tripled in the last year).
For the last year I've heard about the lack of jobs, and while I've seen it myself from talking to people and seaching around monster/hotjobs/dice/etc, education seems to always be hiring. For instance, since you're searching for Boston, why not check out Harvard? I just did a search and they have 25-30 IT jobs currently open, 3/4 of which were posted in the last 3 months.
OSC has stated that although he will no longer do full book tours, he still intends to do individual signings as well as attending the up-and-coming EnderCon's (first one in 2002). It's just that full multi-week book tours take too much out of him, and he's away from his family for too long.
Plus, how many times would you want to be asked about when the Ender movie is coming out?
I know one teacher that would play Thirteen Days in class. It's my 10th grade (female) English teacher. You know, the same one who thought that Mel Gibson would be the best way for us to learn Shakespeare.
I can see it now --
Teacher: "Kevin Costner is sooooooo dreamy...I mean, he comes across as such a good historical figure, it's as if you were really there. Class, I want you to write a paper on this. If anyone needs me, I'll be in the teacher's room watching this tape again."
I remember loving the days when the NZT arrived in the mailbox. I was always the one in the family to fill out the warranty cards, so that we'd get 3? more free issues. Those were the days.
I also remember how disappointed I was when the New York Times sued/complained/whatever and they had to change both the name and the format. Somehow it was never the same afterwards.
How are they regulating the temperature of the devices? A while back, the big problem with car MP3 players was that HDDs don't like extreme temperatures. I'm especially curious because they say you can use any normal 3.5" HDD.
Am I going to have to move south just to listen to MP3s in my car this winter?
I think my login had "Submit" and "Preview" reversed. Um, yeah, that's it.
I meant to clarify that by saying that the EC could still vote for Gore if Bush were to win Florida, which is what I currently see happening, lawsuits or not.
Regardless of how things turn out in Florida (which is bound to be bad no matter what happens), couldn't the EC still pick Gore come next month? What would be the ramifications of that?
Well it's really just a matter of perspective. Microsoft also doesn't find a BSOD to be "unsafe". Why else would the feature be so prominent in every one of their OSes?
I have to admit that when I first heard about C#, I wasn't too interested. However, after reading this article, as well as seeing some of his credentials (Turbo Pascal and Delphi), I find myself growing more interested.
This guy definitely knows his stuff, and he had some very interesting things to say about his baby. I would almost get the impression that this guy is one of the lucky ones who doesn't represent the image of his company.
Of course, I could just be easily fooled. Did anyone else count how many times he mentioned "innovation"?:P
Working at a college myself, there is no way that you could do this feasibly. Standard college users (both faculty and students) would have no clue what-so-ever how to change the port on their client. To some of those users (read: "important" faculty), this would mean that the servers are broken.
While there wasn't much to the article (remember to replace "www" in the address with "partners" to see it w/o registering), I think it's a VERY good sign to see MP3 being talked about as a legitimate avenue for the future of music.
The project sounds interesting, but what I find more interesting is that when I went to the site, the web counter he mentions showed me as visitor number 14 to the site. I can't believe I actually read a/. report and visited the linked material pre/. effect.
Of course, that could be because all the AP's are too busy with first posts to bother reading.
While I think that system hardware innovation and advancement is easier to see (wow my new processor screams), if sufficient research isn't done in how to utilize that through the software, then you've got a mechanically brilliant piece of trash.
I wonder if they're pleased with this. "Look, full length movies CAN be downloaded over the net (though your honor, please disreguard the need for the specialized connection/equipment/etc)."

Now what's really a spoiler? The incorrect "spoiler" from the article, or the above post stating that it's not true? :)

Actually, I distictly remember the interviewer saying it once, so that command wouldn't be exact. Still, the point was definitely made.

I found this interesting. I wonder what Pops has to say about this one. If John is in it for the right reasons, talk about a 180 from his father.

This woman sounds like a prime candidate to be one of the first test monkeys for the VASIMR system.
