  1. Re:Business or Accounting on Best Grad Program For a Computer Science Major? · · Score: 1

    The citation is mine. From my experience. If you are not aware of business realities and IF you have someone doing your books, you don't know where your money os going or if someone is trying to screw you over. You can know all the tech you want but if you don't know cash flow and what it takes to fund your own company, you're going to go out of business. It's that simple.

    Good to hear some advice counter to mine. As a computer geek and a former marine bio major, I regretted not getting a business minor in a big way. As any tech kid goes into college, what do you think about getting a minor in business or as mentioned prior, in accounting?

    If you want to start your own business and can't do our own books, you're screwed.

    Hanoi? Didn't we evacuate Hanoi not too long ago? I'd grab the next helicopter out if I were you. Don't trust those tower construction methods out there.

    YES YES YES. Get a business minor. If you start out on your own and you don't know the rules to business, you will be subject to them.

    I seem to remember reading about a convicted spammer who created Dynamic Dolphin in Broomfield, Colorado. Does anyone else remember who this asshole was? I would not be surprised if he started the whole thing.

    Sadly for that argument, it just may show you have style and care about design, yet still have a strong preference for female sleeping company. Of course, if the only people with style in your neighborhood are lovers of other brothers, well, yes, carrying a Mac very well can make you look like flamebait. Or maybe walking around with a feather boa wearing a nylon rainbow jumpsuit with Elton John glasses might have something to do with it. Who knows.

    I wonder how this maps to Garret Lisi's wonderful TED presentation on "a theory of everything"??

    Possibly. If you are able to analyze the areas of the brain that light up when in her presence, you might be. If you are able to analyze the chemicals released in your brain when in her presence and the neurons that fire in your brain when in her presence you might be.

    So you might be able to. Just not at the moment.

  18. semi on Walter Bright Ports D To the Mac · · Score: 0, Troll

    Can we FINALLY kill the semicolon at the end of a line? The default condition is that the end of a line terminates the command. Forcing the user to enter a semicolon command terminator when they have already indicated they want to end the command be pressing return/enter forces the user to say next command twice. Why must we promote bad design forwards?
