As an American living in London, I have been really shocked by the amount of gun crime and violence in Nottingham lately. Is it just that it makes the news over here, but it's old hat back home?
OK - I'm going a tish off topic here, but ditching on title 9 is horrid. You might as well complain how women's suffrage has hurt all the male politicians. Like it or not, men and women are different but equal, and someday will be treated as such.
Find some other "Very Dangerous Legislation" to pick on.
Making up the argument didn't bother me, I assumed that it was done for humor value. What got to me is that it is was modded +5 Insightful Laugh. It's Funny.
Google has also started something new to help with this. They now have a toolbar that you can download, allowing you to google with out actually going to their site. The hook is, when you download the tool bar, you have the option of having every page request you make being sent to Google and archived for page ranking. They say there is no personally identifiable info, the link just gets copied to google....
Maybe by driving prices back up to where they were in '95? Or maybe by dropping web and data services? Can you think of a better way to hurt consumers?
Am I the only one that's noticed that with the increased use of cell phones, it's getting harder to complete calls during peak times? I've been with PCS for two years now, and in the past year coverage in my area has signifigantly degraded.
Isn't it true that increasing the number of available channels for calls will help fix this problem?
Coffee can lids. Round, thin, cheaper than harddrive platters. I have seen many a geek go bad because they get so stuck on getting around the rules that they are trapped in to a certain train of thought. Thinking outside the box is just like realizing that the spoon doesn't exist.
But the feeling of having to check with someone else for simple purchases really felt like being a second-class citizen
Until you reach the "age of majority" (18) YOU ARE A SECOND-CLASS CITIZEN! - You are not entitled to a trial of your peers unless you are 'tried as an adult'. (even then, it's not your peers, it's registered voters) You cannot be sign binding agreements (including checks) and you can't VOTE! Even illegal aliens in Califoria can vote under the motor voter law.
There is a solution. You can be emancipated by the courts, but why go through all the effort. Eventually, you turned 18. Every one goes through this.
Where does she say that? I am also a female in the IT industry, and it is hard to get respect.
I recently went out to dinner with my boyfriend and two other couples. The other two men knew each other already, and started talking about their jobs. Both of them work in the IT field.
Before we even had a table, they were saying things like "It's just not a women's field"
and "My boss says he's never hiring another woman"
I was horrified! Sexual discrimination is alive and well in Boston IT, and has nothing to do with man haters or respect.
Even my boyfriend, who's a HW tech that learned everything he knows about coding from me, still asks me those 'just a girl' help desk questions. like "Are the lights on your cable thingie blinking?" How do you know it's a problem with the video card - is the moniter turned on?
I don't know why I'm responding to an Anonymous Coward . . .
Seriously - with the kind of engineering brainpower that India has been exporting over the last few years, they'll have no problem developing their own technology fast. India has something like five MIT level colleges for each one we have. Haven't you noticed that all the expensive consultants speak Hindi?
No- Why are you? Ever heard of Global Warming? Tactical Nuclear Warheads? This is (as stated above) an inefficent pop gun. Besides - in America, by the time students put up web sites containing the specs, the.gov has been there, done that.
As to the spread of war - weapons don't cause wars, politicians and religions cause wars. Modern weapons just finish them up a little quicker than your avg battle axe.

That's simulation, not sTimulation...
*of* some reason???
This is not rocket science! Netflix has already worked this one out, and needs no help from self-destructing DVDs.

The last time I even heard of an ARC, it was storing two giraffes, two rabbits . . .

Very interesting book about the origin of computers that could talk to each other. Highly recomended.

Those who can't teach, prevent colaboration.
Besides - those topics aren't covered until
CS3300 (Team based Software Engineering)
IMHO originally meant "In My Humble Opinion"
The lack of Humble Opinions on the internet has changed the use . . .
How do you think providers will conserve?
