You are going from a managed network where you control patches and anti-virus to a network with student owned laptops that may or may not have the appropriate security.
From the infant stage teach them sign language. As they develop language skills teach them letters and their sounds. From there teach them how to read. Introduce music and music theory and start them on an instrument. Throw in a second language. By first grade they'll be pretty advanced.
Over on another site where users promote worthy stories to the front page the same conspiracy theorists clog the comments wondering how Albertpachino got another story to the front page. And even though this site lets you see the volume of submissions this guy makes and lets the readers themselves promote stories they still cry foul and come up with the same conspiracy tripe you mentioned. I think what it comes down to is the internet is full of stupid people who like stirring the pudding with conspiracy theories. I think inflamatory comments have hurt Slashdot. I am not sure what happened to Jon Katz but I liked his contributions but people were so rude to him in the comments. One of the things that keeps me coming to slashdot though are the comments. I'd say more often than not, the comments can be more interesting than the story submissions themselves and one can gain alot of knowledge from reading them. But over the last 2-3 years some of the comments have become brutal and in many cases vulgar and not safe for work.
Apparently you can be annoying if you use your real name. But if you create a fake name then you are breaking the law. Dumb law. But I guess with the war on terrorism being over, the justice department needed something to do. Now they can go after the flood of AC's on slashdot.
Yeah at first site I thought they were talking about the actual language and started to freak out for a moment. I had no idea they supported Visual Studio either.
There's more to the world than MySQL and Apache. They are referring to your large ERP systems, Payroll, and HR systems that use a common password, usually for database access, that the IT guys know about but don't share with the auditors. I can think of a few systems where I work where these applications use a common account and these passwords never change. To change them would be a change management nightmare in some cases.
I loved Tie Fighter. That seems to be one genre of games that has vanished, the combat flight sim. There used to be so many to choose from. Now there are only a few. I would love to see a modern version of X-Wing or Tie Fighter. I dork around with the space part of Galaxies but it just isn't the same feeling.
As far as magazines go, I just recently let my subscription to Official X-box Magazine go because it has too many ads. I let my subscription to Popular Photography go years ago because it was mostly ads. Now that I think about it, I don't get any magazines anymore. Yes internet advertising has become too obtrusive. If I am reading an article on the web and a flash ad comes up usually stop reading at that point. I block most with Firefox or Opera and those that make it through I will ignore or just bail on the site is something really obstructive comes into play. I realize ads and commercials pay for content but I don't see it really influencing me unless they are advertising something that is totally new. Sites like IGN and some other gaming related sites, come on, half of the page is ads and we have to click through a page of ads for every other paragraph of content. That is something I am not willing to do. Alot of sites I hold to the standard of their ads. Take slashdot for example, the ads here are at least related to what is being discussed. Therefore a quality site with quality ads. Compare that to Matt Drudge's site where his ads are often those phony 1 millionth click prize winner or the phony windows dialogs, crap ads make me think his site is on the same crap level when sadly it will have some occasionally interesting and worthwile stories. I miss alot of them because the stupid out of place ads drive me away. CNN vs Fox News is another example. Fox has some pretty cheap looking ads which cheapen the site for me so it is usually not a place I go unless a link takes me there. CNN's ads on the otherhand seem to fit better into the website.
I hope Apple doesn't budge as I would like to see how this plays out. I think it would do nothing but make the music industry look like bigger scumbags than they already are. Plus Apple is already working with indy artist to get their stuff in iTunes. I am sure that pisses off the labels too.
And I have bought a lot at $.99. But if they were $1.49 I'd stop buying downloaded music though I'd probably still download it. I'll let the record labels figure that one out.
From the article: "Free-roaming, managed cheetahs in the southwestern United States could save the fastest carnivore from extinction, restore what must have been strong interactions with pronghorn and facilitate ecotourism as an alternative for ranchers.
That could solve some of the problems along the Mexican border too.
Blizzard is one of the few companies that distribues Windows and Mac games together on the same media. Going further, WoW allows Windows and Mac users to play together on the same realms, something which isn't done in other MMORPGS. What kind of hurdles did you have to overcome to get both Windows and Mac versions to co-exist and have you had to make any sacrifices because you were only able to do something on one platfrom and not both?
Why the Apple tag? Apple didn't invent podcasting, they just embraced and extended it.

Better not click on any other browser icon either. If you need a book to show you how to use a browser then you are going to fall victim to spyware, malware, and other wares just as easily as the IE user would because you are now the security hole.
Slashdot Mirror
In fact, it was so good and trendy that Jobs filed for a patent on it.
Is the Xbox 360 coming out this year?

And while you are waiting for your appointment, Google eye strain excercises.

It just doesn't get any better than this. Well maybe New Years Rockin Eve with Ryan Seacrest.
No digg... oh wait wrong website.

When I think oldschool I think of games like Kings Quest and Monkey Island or even further back to the old SSI and Avalon Hill wargames.

Did someone mention professional and PHP in the same paragraph? Hahahaha
I thought the same thing at first then I went back and read some of the posts by the Linux zealots here and realized Ballmer is quite normal.
He could make one powered by tornadeaux, I guarantee.
And I have bought a lot at $.99. But if they were $1.49 I'd stop buying downloaded music though I'd probably still download it. I'll let the record labels figure that one out.
What do you mean? You have choices. I just upgraded the video card in my Mac.

Will people go to jail? I'm thinking back to the Russian guy who cracked the Adobe files.

What is it with Perl developers and legal hassles?
