they can join my distributed project. Just download my program and it runs in the backround. It will be busy computing the number of Distributed Projects in the world. We currently have 30,000 users. We expect to know the exact number in 100 years.
FAQ:
Why will it take so long to figure out:
Short Answer: The number of Distributed Projects out there grows exponentially.
Why would anyone want to do this:
Short Answer: Nobody does
American Translation: Anything that you can do for 100 dollars we can do for 40 but now its gonna be made out of cardboard, cheap plastic and rubberbands. Maybe a paperclip or two if necessary.
It would be cool if someone would develop an opensource API for this sort of thing. Then us lazy people out there could easily write programs to utilize this sort of processing power. I wouldn't mind harnessing the power of 200 computers to perform a Bubble Sort.
I think memory management is something that to master takes alot longer than 2 days... and without POSIX API's C isn't anywhere near as useful. So yeah maybe you can learn syntax but to use C properly you need more than 2 days.
Whoa There Buddy. No need to harp on us lowly Software Developers. Coincidently I live in Brighton! I work outside of Boston. You are right when you say that there are plenty of development jobs out there. The only problem is that a kid who is 2 years out of school (ie. ME) doesn't have a shot in hell to get one of those jobs. For some reason companies don't understand that anyone with less then 5 years work experience might just be valuable.
The only choice I have is to hope that my company keeps me on for at 5 years because after that I will actually be a desirable developer. Good luck man.
It turns out that the study is completely wrong. After much research it was determined that there actually are quite a large number of females beta testing this game. The reason why it wasn't obvious was because most of them looked like guys!
Doesn't anyone care about all the Redneck, Snaggle Toothed Monster Truck drivers who will be out of a job when Monster Truck Rallies are no longer Human Operated. In the year 2000, all monster trucks will be controlled by Slashdot Techies using Remote Controls.
I sorry that I didn't properly explain all technical terms for the lamen out there. I made a mistake by assuming the intellect of the Slashdot community. I should have told you that to a freaking ant the thing is going like 100mph is the equivalent of to an ant the thing is going (ANT_T *) 100mph
I also should have mentioned that you cannot cast a HUMAN_T type to properly account for the hamster to human ratio there for my second part of that statement shoud have read Then it would go (GERBIL_T *) 100mph.
I hope that I have cleared up any confusion about my previous post.
After I read the first article about the ZipCrap^H^H^H^HZap I thought these things sounded awesome. So then I went over to the lcoal radio shack to take a look. The freaking thing is about the size Schlong (thats not saying much) and moves about as fast as an old lady whos fallen in her bathtub. Don't give me that argument either that to a freaking ANT the thing is going like 100 mph. Because I really don't care. I think they should take this concept and increase the size of the car about 4X. Then it would go like 100mph if I was a hamster. It would probably be pretty cool tthen. Right now it's just a waste of 20$.
I know that getting those calls is really annoying but they do have a purpose. These businesses contain many employees. These employees have families and financial obligations. Once they are fired from there telemarketing jobs because the technology has killed the industry there are thousands of additional people unemployed in our country because some of us are too lazy to say " NO Thanks" when we get a call.

The Freedom of Press I will ever need. If I didn't would I be able to say this:
*** !
Tell me any other country where I could say that sentence. Thank to slashdot's lameness filter I can't even censor myself
She wants the industry, artists, and consumers to work together 'to make technology work for all of us
Why doesn't she just ask Bill Gates to Install RedHat on his home PC!!
It just aint gonna F***in happen Lady!

Maybe next we can use our screensavers to do something cool like search the web for potential stories to post on slashdot.

Did they ever find the Dinosaur Daddy?
I'll lose my software engineering job and won't have enough money to buy any technology. Therefore I won't really give a rats ass!

bada BOOM!
I always assumed "wardrivers" were people who are too cheap to pay for a broadband connection. I wasn't aware that they actually were hackers.
Boy am I really out of the Token Ring.
Come on everyone. Get all of your Back To The Future jokes out now. It's not that often that a reference like this comes along.
Question: Can the batteries be charged with Old Cellphones?
Moms Can't yell at Kids anymore for not eating their dinner. I can see it now.
Boy: "Mom I don't want to eat my dinner!"
Mom: "Fine son well at least refresh the batteries in my Vibrator"
Boy: Sure Mom!!!
Now That was FUNNY my friend!
No this is like the Conan O'brien yea I know 2000 already past thats what makes is funny kinda thing.
You obviously wouldn't understand.
If you can teach it how to Read Slashdot and post highly Moddable Comments then Maybe I won't get fired!

The troll mod was unnecessary. I was just pointing out that these little cars are not that much fun.

It wouldn't be so bad. In these times of economic recession "Trained Space Traveler" wouldn't look so bad on your resume!
It's alot better than their last game show.
Russian Roulette!!
It wasn't a bad show until they ran out of contestants!
