The thing with security is... outside of the curve, there's outside-the-box thinking, comprehension and competence that are involved. You're trying to outsmart potentional attackers, not follow a white paper that they have access to. "Behind the curve" is false because there is no curve, there's just secure and insecure practices. The exploit will either work, or it won't. This only applies at the application level btw.
Anybody who says tell the 1st year intern to rewrite the app cause he doesn't understand better... is pretty much a moron. That's not how you learn, and it's a huge waste of company resources, a lot of coders come out of college over-zealous and thinking they know best... it's the college mentality, you're invincible and on top of the world, doesn't mean you should set them up for failure, esp. w a decade in the biz. What we have is a poor approach and a conflict of interest, OP of ta is probably a dinosaur (10+ years at a company is not the industry trend) who just wants to go home at 5 and not do a single thing not asked of him... which is fine, and a college student who wants to learn anything and everything and probably hasn't been shown much of the humbling QC experience.
I've had my code criticized before by people who I knew were in a lower league, and all I did was explain it to them proper and I consistently get back "oh, ok" and it's dropped, every once in a great while I may learn a minor thing or two even.
To build on what you're saying... but better:) j/k
Projects have as diverse requirements as there are projects out there, and what I've come across is projects that are meant for an expanding business, which basically means that the application needs to be future proofed (based on how much the client is willing to spend here) & the code written in a manner that can be appended to later, this really pays off if you land the support contract after writing the thing. The exact opposite of that is coming across projects where the business just wants to upgrade.. the web app works exactly how they want it to, they just have budget dollars and want to move from classic asp to asp.net & upgrade the "look & feel", and maybe add a dozen "wish" features people have asked for over the years.
Me... I still critize predecessor's code sometimes, there are times I'm right and times I just didn't see the big picture, and I need to stop:) , but I've mostly inheritied applications, though I've done a number from scratch, and am more interested in code theory and best practices than in how many lines of code I write in a day. Oh, and I also value flexibility greatly (the biggest difference between now and college) if only for myself, and the fact that more code doesn't mean worse code, or slower code (don't believe me? learn how a compiler works, and realize that mvc would've never picked up if I'm not right on this).
That's the thing though, and I'm surprised nobody has made this point yet... and slashdot is a shitty place to discuss anything football cause there's more to a sport than injury's... maybe so much more that some of those injuries are justifiable, ok no maybe here, you'd have to be stupid to become an athlete and not acknowledge that you may get injured.
However, that's not my point, my point is people have different thicknesses of their skull and a doctor measures that thickness and determines if you're able to say do boxing. Yours is obviously below what's required for soccer, because your head rings on a header play, doesn't mean that happens to the guys next to you... and that's how you were born. Maybe a way to fix football would be to put in place such a test for positions such as lineman, but have fun telling the guys playing in college right now they'll never make it to the nfl because their skull isn't thick enough to guarantee a career free of brain damage, a riot would ensue, us Americans take football very seriously sometimes.
An original suprnova.org right besides it, back then tpb was tiny it was after the then major sites got shut down that pirate bay weathered the legal storm and became what it is today... but suprnova might've been the first major torrenting site showing proof of concept and representing people sick of paying $20 a movie and $15 a cd to watch previews & fbi warnings, or listen to 2 songs.
Is the gps trackers they put into trucks with an engine shut off switch... even then I think that's just for hazmat. Not to even get into the outrageous cost of doing this, but wouldn't it
A. expand the black market significantly
B. be unenforceable to the billions of dollars of guns already in existence
Part of the problem I think is a lack of accountability, too many cases come down to the cop's word vs. the defendant's and the cop's is taken without question landing innocent people into the system. I think the issue can easily be solved as somebody on here said in a discussion a while ago by installing cameras in ALL police cars. An extreme step past that would be to track the officer themselves, but there's gotta be a better way than that. The reason for all this: they hold a position of power that they've proven time and time and again they're capable of abusing, those in power should be held accountable, even if it's over the wrongful arrest of a single individual. Imagine being "that" guy, not a good day indeed.
Also... I don't see why a false arrest is shameful, especially when it's shown to be false. If you act like a jackass in public, somebody video tapes you and posts it, something in the back of your mind should be wondering choices & consequences. In fact, it's better that way cause hopefully you won't do it again. So we can say it's a good thing that people can video tape you in public, keeps the riff-Raff in line and pants on.
I'm more referring to stuff like file sharing across the network & streaming media kind of stuff. I'm sure it might be possible with enough research, but it's not something that's easily attainable with current ios / android capabilities.
There's still tons of room for improvement in the mobile market, example: better networking features for wifi networks aka the whole desktop experience on a phone, which is what this is all about, so right on ubuntu!
The title is orwellian, so most of the posts will be as well, I doubt Disney cares about where you go, at best they'll be able to better gather big dataish walk times between the rides and correlate that to ride times or something.
It'll be interesting to see if they've introduced enough new features since cs2 to make people want to upgrade and what those costs will be, an upgrade is A LOT cheaper than a full version, but... they'd be losing money upgrading from free cs2 to upgrade version of cs5.
I'm thinking only advanced users can really benefit from the upgrade as I remember cs2 and it had most of the basic features found in today's cs5.
People who can't do their jobs in the work place won't be able to do their jobs as consultants and thus fail to build a network... this is fact. It's not for the retarded so to say. But... what benefits? The benefit of waking up to the grind each morning, the benefit of having some dumbshits who call themselves bosses tell you what to do and how to act 8-5 mon-fri, so you can come home and... I'll refrain from quoting fight club here:)
There's both sides to the coin, if you can't see the other one, stick to the one you know. Otherwise, I'd say it's an excellent first step to starting an IT based services / solutions business.
Oh, and you need more skills than just tech, marketing, presentation skills, a bit of accounting, an understanding of the legalities and pitfalls all go a long way towards making that chance a calculated success rather than luck based ("rare").
The perm side of the coin from what I've seen involves people being scared shitless for their jobs thinking that worrying is going to bring them job security and some also work a lot of free overtime as non-exempt full-timers (the majority of IT's workforce).
What IT needs is to make it so you know your shit stepping out into the real world, most 1st year workers get hit with cold water stepping out from the safety of the school lab into production data used by hundreds at once (if it's thousands+ please don't let 1st year workers get at it). Don't know anybody with a PHD in computers... but doctors require a PHD and computers aren't people, so I'd have to agree a PHD is overkill, but it amazes me how many people work in IT without a degree, I think that self-learning is perfectly legit... but why not go get that degree anyways? At the very least, it'll probably increase your pay and open more doors on your way to your next job. A masters tends to land people the bread and butter in the industry, high pay, high knowledge jobs, with others doing the groundwork underneath your expertise. Most project managers are:( though, oh well.
I would pass on any project that involved business and mono in the same doc. I think Mono is really cool, but from a reliability standpoint and from a support standpoint, it would be business suicide to use it. It's just not been proven in the sense.
I'm mostly going off of what I see in the job market, which is.NET,.NET, &.NET and every once in a blue moon java. I know pbx's in telco are probably C based, that would make sense, but what would automotive have to do with C? What lang are the intranets in?
Also, isn't.NET known for it's productivity factor of being able to churn out large volumes of code due to full OOP, architectural frameworks, & Visual Studio's 49798798 code producing features & such?:P
90% of businesses, and I think you're right about Android using Java. So let's think about this then, C (embedded machines), Java (android), object-C (iOS) being the top 3? Trend wise... maybe... but... on a year to year comparison... hell no.
C++ (games (maybe PC gaming isn't what it used to be) &.NET (business) followed by C... and I'd have to ask are there really THAT many android/iOS apps coming out daily that they eclipse business projects and needs? Highly doubtful.
Rush hour can make people more violent dude, the question is to what degree? The lead to crime theory isn't based on facts, but trend statistics, there's hard evidence that it affects the brain, but I don't think there's hard evidence of exactly how.
You just answered my question on why C could even be considered:)
Embedded systems would explain the growth,.NET FW is windows only pretty much, NOBODY, but MS is going to try to port it to an embedded machine. I'd still say 90% of businesses are.NET shops to varying degrees, but I didn't immediately understand what C was doing up there.
Java though... makes me doubt the validity of TIOBE heavily, object-C doesn't help either, I get that there's a lot of android/iOS programming going on (I believe this is what object-C is used for mostly nowadays, but... more than 90% of businesses combined using.NET... doubtful). Maybe if TIOBE was based on +/- % changes I'd understanding, but as an overall popularity index, businesses have the $, and businesses use.NET unless they're web based... then something Linuxy is the overwhelming trend, which mostly equals something php, ruby, etc... I've got to call shenanigans on this:)

Oh gawd, that's asking for an 80 hour work week tracking down the bugs & fixing them, you gotta understand the code first to re-factor it.
