    How do 45000 people all have enough money to just take two weeks without pay? I would be devestated without a paycheck for two weeks.

    The real question is.... if you make enough money to not get paid for 2 weeks and be fine with that. Do you really need more money? I would lose everything if I lost 2 weeks salary.

    Last time... people were complaining that pilots had to have the screenings at all. After all.. they are flying the plane... they dont need a bomg, they can just crash the thing. Now they complain when they dont have screenings. Real life trolls are multiplying.

    Object oriented programming destroyed compact code by turning programming into cookie cutter, copy/paste, bloaded, crap. "Oh but its so easy to read." Its a freaken program.... if you understand the language properly its all easy to read. We dont teach that anymore though.

  19. Re:Finally some sanity on What's Your College Major Worth? · · Score: 1

    The problem is the sheer number of people going to college thinking it will benifit them. Degrees lose value when you flood the market with them and high school guidence counselors telling kids to go to college or they will fail at life is the start of it. There are SO many people getting degrees now that most find it had to find a job when they get out of college, and are lied to going in to college that the college itself will get them a job.

  25. Re:Strange on When AIM Was Our Facebook · · Score: 0

    There were at least 10 irc networks before aim that had an averafge of 50,000 people online at the same time. That consitutes over 75% of the internet at that time. It also reprisented people from all walks of life, not just techy people. Hell I one of my first long time relationships on irc, and she was by no means technical. AOL had "more people" but thats people there were more people online at the time it came around. The ratio of people on aol compared to thoseon irc before aol is roughly the same.
