"The 50-link silicon microchain is designed to transmit power somewhat like the drive belt in a 19th-century sewing factory.

Great, now we can look forward to the nanobots getting maimed and mangled in miniature industrial accidents. Let's hope the bots don't "organize" too well and go on strike because of this.
IMO, you're better off having one standard resume that doesn't contain any bs. Potential employers might like to know that you're well-rounded and flexible in your skills, rather than a drone that specializes in a narrow range of skills. Be honest about yourself and your background, just don't drag it out.
Customization should be left to your cover letter, where you introduce yourself and put to words how your skills and experience would contribute to a company.
The lesson here: Optimize your resume to paint a concise picture of yourself; optimize your cover letter to show specific employers how you would fit in.
DOC vs. HTML should be the *least* of your worries. You should be pissed that now the sysadmin has the ability to find out everyone's salaries. Heads would roll and be smashed to a red & pink liquid if that happened at my company.
At work we have Windows with Office and I get nonetheless annoyed when anyone sends me a Word attachment that they could have simply typed into Outlook as regular text and been on their way. The exception to this rule would be really large documents that are ready for final printing on paper, but it is rare to send that through email.
So my pet peeve is anyone that adds another layer of complexity for no reason whatsoever when regular email works just fine.
Today a Slashdot reader posted a story about Yahoo! blending advertisements into their news headlines. After Yahoo! was/.'d by other Slashdot readers in response to the post, the other readers came back and posted "wtf are you talking about?" and went back to their daily routines.
Hmm, so this got posted, yet my ask slashdot piece about Tux address labels went ignored. humfph
then there is a simple formula to determine how much sleep you need. Without getting into specifics, there is a positive correlation between your sleeping time and the capacity of your dog's bladder.
Isn't this a rather obvious statement? Anybody that's held a job where you work in teams should know that those who do the most work get allocated their fair share of the billings and the freeloaders (or better put, those who did less work) get less or nothing.
I think we're dealing with a concept that is far more reaching than P2P and has been around for much longer.
all the cross-dressing sysadmins who like to put on some makeup, turn on the 9-track and pull a wig down from the shelf? I can almost hear someone singing "suddenly I'm Ms. Ada Lovelace."
I'm good with the command line; I use bash all the time at home and telnetted into a Solaris system all the time in college. How is FreeBSD in terms of maintainability of things like NFS, Samba and Apache servers?
My TI-85 has had staying power for almost 10 years and has followed me from high school to college and the workplace. It does everything I want it to, mostly thanks to the equation solver function.
To answer the question of what people typically use these for, here is a timeline of how I've used mine: Trigonometry, Chemistry, Physics, Calculus (3 yrs, both HS and college), all sorts of finance courses (time values of money, cash flow analysis, etc.), valuation of privately held companies. There's just no limit!
I have an extra 42 gigs of HD space (2 + 40) that I'd like to pop into a Pentium 200 system with 128 megs of RAM and run as a misc file/web/mp3 server. Coming from a Mandrake 8.1 environment, how well do you think I'd love FreeBSD?
When I do the math, my toys only come out to $135 a month, using your figures. Fact is, without that car note, car insurance and telephone, I wouldn't be able to pay for food and shelter. In the long run, that Tivo line could be cut out if you opt for the lifetime subscription.
I have a Be clipboard. It's actually a motherboard (not a BeBox mobo, looks like a 486 board) that has a clipboard mechanism attached and the old Be logo printed at the bottom. I also have a Be hat which I had overnighted to me to wear to MacWorld Expo 2000 in NYC. Oh, and some Be t-shirts, too.
To handle your side note, download and install PowerToys from M$ and change the setting. With my NT box at work, I can change focus w/o raising the window.
The downloadable version is for X86 only and can only be installed within a Windows or Linux partition. You need the full "Pro" version of R5. It's only $50 at www.gobe.com, the official North American distributor. For $60, you get BeOs 5 Pro and Gobe Productive. For $70, you get all of the above, plus Scot Hacker's BeOS Bible. btw, Gobe Productive has a PPC version on the CD. The BeOS 5 disc is multisession with X86 and PPC versions.
Just train some of the people who elected mayor Daley to maintain the network for minimum wage...after all, corpses don't have a lot of living expenses.

I am not my resume.

I didn't know my grandmother read Slashdot. Hi, Grandmom!

"If you're talking about "tutu-wearing faggoty-ass MISY majors," it's not too much of an inside joke.
Otherwise, this is sailing above my head much as what I wrote is sailing above yours."
Christ, has no one seen Hedwig and the Angry Inch?

Or was that way too much of an inside joke?

Because it's not illegal to rig a poll on some web site. Now, doctoring evidence sumitted in a court case...THAT should be punishable.

Querio, after the database-related word "query".
What if I get an ATA 66 card to handle the drive?

Snowfox, I'll sell you mine for $2,0000. Fire an email to moc.oohay@bhcp if you'd like :-) My comcast email is still fscked from the transition.

If M$ had their way, they'd branch off a rib of this new network and create a Windows-only MAN, or WoMAN.
As long as your BeBox has the Revision 6(firmware-something-ROM) you can run BeOS R5, which was the latest version.
