  1. Re:Vista is a total rip-off of Tiger... on Comparing Tiger and Vista Beta 1 · · Score: 1

    Wow guys. I've been on /. for a long time now, and I can honestly say that this has to be the most civilized "mac os vs. windows" discussion I've ever read. I can honestly say I've learned a few things from your comments that I wouldn't have learned if this discussion had proceeded in the "normal" /. fashion. I usually get frustrated by the fanboy-ism and never finish the thread.

    I've really not nothing constructive to add, but just thought that this had to be mentioned :)

  2. Re:How fast? on Fluid Logic Chips · · Score: 1

    I remember from a university physics class that it actually takes an electron about 58 minutes to travel 1m in a solid conductor. Therefore, it is the EM wave propagation (which propagates at the speed of light) which enables signals to be sent much faster.

    Actually, since the Arctic Polar Icecap is floating on the sea, it is an iceberg.

    True, but since glaciers also form on land they cannot be considered icebergs, and therefore...

    glacier != iceberg

  4. Re:Other paths to "computer science" careers on Fewer Computer Science Majors · · Score: 1

    That's actually the programme I am taking in university. Combines business and engineering degrees to give u essentially a double degree in 5 years with the option of MBA in 1 year after that.

    So even if you choose not to go the MBA route, you still have business courses to draw off of which can help push you towards the management side earlier in your career (if that's what you're looking for).

  5. Re:this is obviously crap on A Complete Map To Springfield · · Score: 1

    ...And where's "Lard Lad Donuts"? It's supposed to be right beside the monorail - Homer used it to stop the monorail. Or maybe I'm just not seeing it.

    15% sales tax in Ontario, and there ain't much we can do about that either!!
