If your name happens to be Elton John Smith, and you play piano, you don't have to give up your career... and you can even mislead people (to some degree) legally. A great world.
Sometimes it's ok to postulate on a suitable salary... all depends on the situation. Given your situations for the other -ates, though.... I'd have to agree... or (on the same line of thought): postulate on what might *still* be up your nose.
If you procrastinate (on a question) they might think your are deep in thought (wow, he must have some serious issues with whether C++ or Java is better), but they most likely will think you aren't listening.
If it's a dotcom... rotate on the spinny chair might be just what it takes to convince them you have enough creativity to hire and give you all sorts of still-and-soon-to-be-even-more-worthless stock options...
I especially like it every time they redo my.weather.com... require e-mail, name and address again... I usually just fill in all of those fields from the following sentence:
I filled these out before
(or something similar)
and I place MAILER-DAEMON@weather.com in the e-mail slot, and click all of the 'send me...' buttons...
FromTheSig: When they said that information wants to be free, they meant free as in speech, not free as in beer.
I just wish somebody would let everybody else know how they calculate credit ratings... the most mysterious system to date. Heck, just ordering a credit report on yourself lowers your rating somehow... Bah!

Right, x86 compatability would be the only selling point. It'd be a fun, though. A linux or windows handheld that could run desktop software (albeit a little slower than a GHz Athlon).
I wasn't saying it practical from a monetary standpoint, but just an interesting idea... Besides, you sign up for a RIT slot with IBMs fab and pay cash, you can make any chip you want (copyrights aside, of course).
Do up a 486 on a.18u process... The voltage would be cut far more than in half... a DX4/100 would probably jst barely get warm - especially considering it didn't need a heatsink to start with. Even a P-100 on a new process would be pretty efficient, and has enough cajones to run a fair amount of apps. Hmm...
The bigger idea was that kids in AP CS (never offered by my school anyway) should be the ones who are interested in it, and have a lot of background on their own... then again, I took AP History and English, neither of which I ever took in college (since I placed out of them)...
Heck, I wrote a simple symbolic math program on my C=128 back in 7th grade... how hard could some of that stuff on Sourceorge be;-)
I know that the CS students at my school had to code a 64-bit adder with carry look-ahead... an intersting little task in C. Gets the brain rolling, and actually helps some people figure some other things out on their own.
Can't think of one right off hand, but then... I'm just another one of the many with a degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering (where uAmps matter).
I haven't run into a situation where the non-grounded equipment causes problems like that (including a few computers built in/around milkcrates and such).

Actually, you could:
Instigate - depends on how, though.
also:
Investigate - that's why you are there (for the most part). Is this job for you?
Masticate - only if they offer you toffe...
Postulate - could be helpful, in some interview situations.
Relate - empathy is helpful, if your interviewer has a nervous breakdown.
aside from those... if you decided to mate right there... that would be a bad idea...

>Can junkbuster filter out useless 1x1 images completely?
Your browser would have to do that... junkbuster doesn't get the sizing information...
Formatting would be screwed up on a *lot* of pages, if you happened to turn all 1x1s off.
