The fact that you ask me vague and pointless questions tell me a lot of work ethics and subjective evaluation of people. It also tells me I dont want to work with you. Life is too short. To elaborate, read the answer above...
It depends. In my 20s maybe, just maybe I wouldnt have problems with those questions. In my 40s I am negotiating a business proposition with you, I am something very solid and palpable to offer you, my vast years of experience. You are not doing my any favour at all, let me stress this, we are conducting a business. Our time is valuable too, as we already have to juggle family, work, and leisure. I also have quite a surprising war chest, and am not desperate for work. Heck, I have a good job actually, convince me it would be fantastic to work with you. Would you have issues answering my stupid questions? I believe you would have. After all, it is also in my interest not to work with dicks. Life is too short for me too. No sir, we are adults, we are conducting business, respect this, respect me and leave the stupid questions at the door. If you want respect, you have to respect.
This such important reply should not be an AC. Those HR drones have to understand they have to respect the people across the table and a job interview is essentially the negotiation to a transaction where the other side is evaluating them too. Sadly, many seem to forget this.
Same pains here with portuguese keyboards. Officially the only thing it needs to be bought is the ç. There are slight variations too. I suspect, no better, I am quite sure, the ç and specially the ñ were just due to laws to protect national distributors, and make sure you cannot brought directly machines from abroad and sell them without getting noticed. (i.e. mandatory to sell machines with manual in the local language and national keyboards. I remember slightly in the old Spectrum days, the passing of the law about the ñ mandated the need for local factories and prevented small electronic shops from importing directly).
Any connection that doesnt need an Internet presence, or doesnt have DNS sites should cut Chinas IP address space. Less SPAM and specially less cyber attacks. Even when they are not really targeted, they have simply the bigger concentration of all of old unpatched machines, and their mentally of if it works dont touch it, instead of more consumerist views of USA, it is slow, lets bin it and buy a new one, doesnt help too into being a hive of zombie machines.
You may complain as much as the closed garden ecosystem of the iPads, however there are no viruses, and it is *actually* the only platform I would trust for Internet banking, mind you. I wont even trust my Macbook. I think Apple is really missing a marketing opportunity here.
I send that, I "own" a crapdroid. I only Internet in the first couple of months, then gave up on it and start only using it for voice calls. Anyway, I hated the damn thing, and bought myself I 5s. So while technically I count as a Android and iPhone user, I only use my iPhone.
There is an option to disable in-app purchases, and is disabled both in my ipad and my iphone as protection from my kid, from myself and from potentially malicious apps.
Studying/remembering things takes a lot of training and most of it, the right mindset and attitude. Be careful with the distractions, though: give up facebook, and come only one time per day to slashdot. Read only email a fixed x times per day; if you have it in your smartphone, disable notifications, unless you are a doctor or work in IT.
The two non-IT subjects I had better grades in faculty, the professor followed a book, and I for the whole semester read 2 or 3 pages of it before I went to bed. At the end of the semester, it turns out I remembered the book.
I actually enjoy a lot to read and learn stuff, but at my pace. Took already some linux certs, next will be CCNA. However I hate being spoon fed, the extreme slowness of data feeding in a Uni setting, and the mediocracy, where the lowest common denominator sets the pace. And at 40, I dont see myself going back to for an MBA any time soon. And I am at ease with it. Not everyone thinks like me obviously, however I am much happier doing what I like best.
I concur also that reading helps.
Well, from a fellow Iberia hermano, there are several ways to avoid the stupidity of the custom tax. Either you buy it online and download it, or a friend in the US buys it and forwards it as a gift. Some chinese stores also bend rules and send it for you with a receipt of a much lower cost to rid you of taxes, already happened to someone I used to know. Normally here if you have just a DVD or a book, it also goes bellow radar, or used to be that way. When you start buying more than 3 or 4 in one go, they inspect it. Another alternative is buying from amazon uk, or bookpool for books, which are inside the EU and dont pay taxes.
If it were here with Brazilian people routinely having lengthy conversations with a very loud voice in the middle of the movies, I guess the guy would bring a bazooka, hire a bomb man, or Steven Seagal...
Easy answering about immigrants, cheaper labor force. About people cheering for other people, I thought you were taking about cushion jobs like HR or the Quality department.
Even Debian that is quite conservative and slow at adapting packages, has been using kernel 3 in production for quite some time. (2 years?). I suspect rather more RH being behind in kernel releases to protect their code investment in heavy customisations to the kernel, which initially was one of the reasons, between many others, that I moved to Debian.
For that kind of money, I prefer to buy an Apple Time Capsule, and get a 3T hard disk also. And I find it not good commercial strategy to price things on par to Apple prices exactly because of that.
Sea urchins exist in the atlantic and in the pacific too. The thing is that only in the mediterranean people eat them; although I remember picking them up in the beach in my childhood to use them as bait for fishing.
Dickheads. You are very patient.

NSA is too busy reading their ex emails...

I think they lately invented something obscure called ethernet, or in more layman terms, Internet, that apparently doesn't make mechanical noises.

Actually it have been proved by consumer bodies factors above 35 dont work any better and they are just a scam to rip you off.

If it is politics, he is on the right place.

Captain obvious called. Extended weekends, Xmas and summer holidays.

Do you realize their inefficiency is just a show to rob us blind, right?
I was using SCO V at the time...
If you think governments dont plan many things many decades ahead, you are naive.
The thing is IT workers are seen as white collar jobs/glorified secretaries and firms resent having to paying them wages as very qualified workers.
