Have them all build their own custom Gentoo box. They'll learn a great deal, you'll only need to actively teach for a day or two, and then spend the rest of the semester waiting for it to compile. Perfect!
Oh yeah? And what if I want to walk down the up escalator? I'm not one of those morons who run along the far right or the far left. I like to run the wrong way in the middle, so I can knock people down on both sides.
Of course, they could easily just use encryption, which is dead easy and widely available. Just encrypt the message and send it over some clear channel like IRC. If you don't mind a little centralization, run a Jabber server and connect securely to that, and you don't have to fiddle with PGP.
HEY! Why do you hate America? Why are you aiding the terr'ists? Dey want to take our jerbs!
If you are into big time crime you can even get news media to communicate for you, but that means that you must have exchanged some protocol first. Let's say that you agree that news reported in a certain newspaper online can contain some key information - like where a bank heist shall occur. You can then communicate a lot of information through other channels to coordinate the "when" and "how". Then just cause some other happening - like a large fire that will be reported in the news in the area where you shall pull it off.
I like your approach. Can I join your gang? I can drive fast, have a high tolerance for alcohol, can field-strip an AK-47, and perform well under pressure.
I carry a Colt.45ACP semiauto pistol when I bicycle. The driver of the last car that hit me died on the scene. The good news is that he will never run another cyclist over!
I get mixed reactions to my packing heat when I ride in the monthly Critical Mass events; some fellow cyclists approve, some disapprove, a few are simply terrified, and I've run into at least one that was also carrying a gun. You should see the SUV drivers take off in a hurry after I pop a few rounds through their back window, though. It's absolutely hilarious!
So despite everything I think all these people have more than earned a massive THANK YOU and WELL DONE. I even think that they deserve to be called heroes. (Especially because the people that did all this probably had nothing to do with causing the disaster in the first place.)
They're heroes, every single fireman who ever lived is a hero, you're a hero, I'm a hero, everyone is fucking hero these days. I'll bet you think your maid is a hero for scraping your dried shit out of your toilet bowl!
Just out of curiousity, what sort of job experience, schooling, certification etc. would they be looking for for jobs at these data centers?
The ability to lift at least 40 lb., and an ability to tell a phillips screwdriver apart from a flathead.
Seriously. Working in the data center is all manual grunt work. The highly-skilled software work is done remotely by the companies that put servers in the data center.
Well most ignorant investors, well invest in talent. But honestly I think this is very intuitive... I have an MBA and decided that was not for me. (now a math / programming, but judge all you want idc) you nailed the business perspective my friend and well, I will still invest. But in the same sense, because I must be the devil's advocate: you can never know the market. Name a better place? Where else will you find talent on demand, I'm sure there is a place, but add infrastructure into the equation. Hey help me fellow slashers of info, is there really a better place for this to be situated, we need talent and little infrastructure investment? (the "we" is used loosely) I am not be arbitrary here, just asking for where would be better?
My god, your MBA completely destroyed your ability to speak clear English! You sound like *gasp* a manager!

The "alt universe" is basically what occurs AFTER Jack has died and is only shown during Season 6 so it can coincide with Jack's death and final resolve in the afterlife. Do you want a Season 7 of just an alt universe? Anyways, During this "alt universe", this is where Jack is trying to find closure and in the end everyone that gave any meaning to Jack's life is there to help him move on. Remember, the show has used many flash forwards before, the "alt universe" is a flash forward centered around Jack during his afterlife. But everything that occurred on the Island was when they were all living.
Wait, Jack Bauer dies? Thanks a lot! You've just ruined season 8 of 24 for me!
Actually, you're the racist, blindly assuming that the non-well-to-do in the GP's post are of a different race than the well-to-do. At no time did the GP specify race or skin color, and yet you're so blinded by your racial hatreds that you just automatically assume race is involved. For shame!

Given that Bing powers Yahoo!'s search results, how is this even possible, let alone newsworthy?
PerfectOffice.org. Comes complete with an awesome acronym!
That's a very, very cynical point of view.
You've obviously never worked for a Yahoo-, Google-, or Facebook-type of place.
"Trimester?" WTF is wrong with you? You seriously plan to teach a fetus the difference between disk and memory?

So what was it like growing up as a child while dinosaurs still roamed the earth? Did you ever see a T-Rex?
Bad router, bad switch. There are all kinds of fun reasons you can't just look for the answer on Google.
Um, I have an iPhone. What the hell do you have, your grandma's clamshell?

Every one of them is in awesome shape.
And virgins, every one of them.
I too have heard this claim repeatedly, on commercials for indoor air purifiers from Sharper Image.
You mean the ones that cause your lung tissue to dissolve and cause you to die from drowning in your own blood?

Code Pink and (indeed) almost the entire population of San Francisco would like to have a couple heated words with you.
No, they'd like someone else to have a couple of heated words with you on their behalf.

Show us your tits. Until then, we will simply have to assume you're actually a guy, and not a girl.
