    As a native american I usual side with tribes, but in this instance your post is spot on.

    The reality is pollution is bad, mmmmmkay ?

    Another reality is peak oil mmmmmmmkay ?

    I taught myself BASIC at 13, and Assembler at 14.

    I wanted to do it, but little else so college didn't work for me,
    so I dropped out.

    Later I saw that ti would shift to countries that can pay their
    coders less, and US firms went for it a great deal and or
    brought them to the US via one of the 73 different Visas.

    So while I am glad to see them do something for those
    with this desire, it came about 3 decades late for me.

    Good Luck to all the neo-serfs under the new world order.

  10. Re:Frist Psot on Is There a New Geek Anti-Intellectualism? · · Score: 1

    I have heard different versions but here goes.

    By the time the college figures out where rapid tech is heading, tech
    has already moved onto the new latest thing and or changes
    are happening in real time and college 'somewhat' has not
    adapted to this rapid real time in how its done.

    Ppl show up in the working world and what they were taught in school
    has been changed majorly or retired.

    For ppl in the real world to keep up they are self learning via books,
    the net, and other tools before the professors teach it in their
    classrooms or student have to parallel learn the classroom material
    that is may be obsolete with what is really being used.

    One intellectual inferred this would be part of the Technological Singularity,
    in other words tech would speed up learning, publications, and the old ways
    of doing things would have to adapt.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity

    The other aspect of the singularity are argued, but I'd say this one is
    coming true in certain areas to certain extent, YMMV.

    My use of this example is due to how fast we are advancing due to the net,
    rapid on demand publishing, etc etc.

    The whole tech sphere is accelerating itself in some areas, in others
    it seems to be complicating things...but that is another story.

    The best thing to learn IMHO is how to learn on your own via
    the online resources, books, journals, and be adaptive to a fluid world
    that is moving faster than it has in the past.

    I think we can all agree that a lot of areas are accelerating.

Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. ...In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons...who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses.
