Yeah, but can't you just say "I dunno..." when they ask you? It's not illegal if you honestly don't remember. Just ask my sysadmin for confirmation - half of my support desk calls are for password reset requests;)
There is very little technology specific language in it, and it was written many, many years ago. We look to revise it at a certain interval, and always come to the conclusion that it still stands and applies as well as it did when it was written. The student judicial system and technology advisers get involved in the interpretation of the policy if something happens, and the governmental judicial system should do something similar in the real world.
Just for the sake of correctness, you should say "With fewer cookies..."
Less is a measure of amount (e.g. "Put less milk in if it bothers your stomach."), whereas "fewer" describes a measure of something you can count (like cookies, cars, etc.).
SCT Banner on Oracle on AIX, and it doesn't make a difference; this information came from what is basically a retired department chair's personal employee webspace, according to the article. This has nothing to do with an official information repository of any kind.
No. According to the office of the Registrar the numbers are sequential by class. When a new batch of first-year students (Freshman and transfers and the like) enroll they get one number after the last. It'd be stupid to connect them to SSNs. Why would you think that?
It was 755, and the file hadn't been noticed for three years; grades and records are stored in a database on secured servers somewhere. These records were a report run from that database to enable the department chair to make decisions, probably on things like class force-adds.
It was removed and Google was informed by an automatic process to re-archive; there was no cache, but the data was searchable for the day it was found. The evening it was found it was no longer searchable. Internet Archive and the like don't archive this particular type of content.
The game was freely downloadable and playable until your character hit level five or so. After level five or level ten or whatever you had to pay for it. I think that would hook lots of people with little risk, then gain loyal customers.
I am saying this again, because sometimes repitition is good for learning.
People need to UNDERSTAND PRIORITIES WHEN PICKING BATTLES TO FIGHT. This is a topic so far under the radar today IT SHOULD NOT BE DISCUSSED until space vehicles are AT LEAST AS POPULAR AS PRIVATE AIRCRAFT.
Gaah... Let's try to keep the shuttles from blowing up before replacing their environmental control systems and insulative materials.
I started typing Dvorak about a year ago after my wrists hurt from rock climbing really hard and the pain was exastrabated by typing. It took about a month to regain my previous qwerty speed. After I was back up-to-speed I had forgotten qwerty significantly, so I was back to lots of mistakes, 20 - 30 WPM with it. I think the problem was that I was thinking about Dvorak and it interfered with my qwerty.
I started using qwerty on shared machines, Dvorak on my machines, and got very fast on both again - I'm about 75 or so WMP (my original speed) on qwerty and a bit faster w/ Dvorak.
The thing that is really cool is that I'll be typing a few short lines on a shared (office / lab machine) and start in qwerty, get frustrated, and switch mid-sentance to Dvorak and not miss a letter. No more thinking, brain just does it! cool:)
I was talking with the developers who (on the DL (down low, as in secret, not DownLoad)) sold Apple a piece of software that translates between closed and open file formats better than any other document converter ever has. This is for use in their office suite, especially convertisg Microsoft Excel docs to the speadsheet app, which wasn't named when I talked to the devs about it two months ago or so.
Yeah, I have this friend who types probably like you do - his hands like 'float' over the keyboard. He says when he manages to find a touchstream LP (fingerworks) for sale (company stopped producing them 'cause they got bought) in Dvorak he plans to switch and learn to type on the home row.
I wonder why typing teachers for so long advocate the home row thing. I don't necessarily agree they are right, but... hrmm.
I have another random point too - we (geeks) like to do crazy things with tech (make air conditioners out of fans, copper tubing and trash cans, make a computer case completely out of fans, etc.) and part of the allure of Dvorak is that too, being different - i.e. "I'm so hard-core that I am proficient at four programming languages, three scripting languages, three operating systems and even two keyboard layouts, and can switch between them seamlessly!"
First, allow me to admonish your hasty conclusion.
On this page http://www.koniaris.com/dvorak/ there is a discussion about distance of finger movement. The test document was the Unabomber's Mannifesto. The results:
* Typing the Unabomber Manifesto in QWERTY costs about 5.7km (XY).
* Typing the Unabomber Manifesto in Dvorak costs about 3.3km (XY).
In terms of planar movement Dvorak is more efficient. Then, for the pain standpoint, one must decide for themselves if moving up a row (above home row) is more comfortable, or would one rather move down a row. Personally I hate that bottom row - it compounds what rock climbing does to my wrists. I am much more pain-free on Dvoark, and I still have the ability to switch mid-sentance back to qwerty and not think about it, making other peoples' computers easy.
There are a ton of studies of varying levels of scientific valitidy. This was my first decent result of quick google search. The bottom line is it's thought out, and thus better, but people don't want to re-learn 'till QWERTY hurts them.
I use MeetingMaker, which runs natively on Windows and OSX, and I run it under Wine on my Gentoo box. It works well, has a utilitarian interface, and most importantly allows me to schedule my co-workers and meeting-rooms as well when I'm planning things. When you want to have a departmental meeting, clicking the "auto-schedule" button is a dream instead of trying to talk about when would be good for everyone. Now if I could just get everyone else to be as anal about keeping it updated.... only thing I don't like about it is the tranceport between MM and other things (PDA's for example) SUCKS and is a pain in the ass to keep working.
People have obviously done their homework already to hack this thing... where is the community documentation? I want to support GPS's with
this, like GPS Drive - that's a sweet app but with google driving direction downloads and maps it'd be truely amazing.

Just to set things in the clear I don't ever buy Intel chips... I have been an AMD customer ever since I retired my Pentium III (a great chip, BTW). I simply am saying that all that stuff you mention in your posts the customer does not know - they only know what is advertised to them, and what they are sold by big PC powerhouses like Dell.
Intel has brand equity AMD will be hard pressed to get for many years. This sad but true quote about sums it up, "I don't know what the hell an Intel Inside is but I know I need one when getting a new computer." That according to a professor of mine (not in an IT field;)) who should know better. The bottom line is that branding does it. While Dell maintains its Intel-only contract for processors nothing will change regardless of the products the companies are putting out.

You write something like Miami University has in its Responsible Use of Computing Resources document. You can read it at http://kb.muohio.edu/cgi-bin/webcgi.exe?new,KB=MUK B,case=obj(4831) if you are interested.

... MU is a Linux shop. In fact, we have more UNIX servers of differet flavours than we have Windows servers.

I'm glad my TouchSTream LP by the now defunct Fingerworks makes no noise at all while I type ;)
You know what would be a good idea?

Cars sold in the states haven't used Freon since the late 90's. That's why A/C sucks in cars now.
this was tried - it involved a giant Tesla coil and shocking of many townspeople in an attempt to transmit power over the air to houses ;)
Instead of Dvorak bashing I'll answer you:

I was totally gonna ask for a howto!! It has to have a whole section named "??????" followed by one named "Profit!" of course
