If you don't understand SQL enough to write it by hand, it may be time to go back to school to learn it.
If someone were to say that they could build Windows applications because they knew how to use the VC++ Resource Editor to create dialogs but didn't feel comfortable writing C++ code, wouldn't you suspect something?
Go down to your local Fry's and buy a nice shiny computer. Use the computer to visit the GNU website and take a look at the projects that look like they need some help. Download the code and start working on it using Cygwin tools or Linux, if you've installed it.
Forget about making money in the industry, you're much better off getting a degree in plumbing, the pay is better and the hours are better.
This is one of those hand-waving statistics that is useful for showing the business leaders, but it's practically useless in day to day network protection.
These numbers used to be in the billions of dollars, but now they are more reasonable in the millions. If anything, it shows a trend in the perception of the value of data in a downwards direction. Everyone thinks data is some really important thing which should have a high value, but as more and more data is brought into the open (including, but not limited to, source code) the value of data drops.
But the friends of mine who are do not find the industry all that they expected it to be. The fun and games that you would expect from a game company is actually politics and stress in reality.
You end up working long hours on a game that will be released when you know it's only half done, only to be laid off the week after the game ships.
Do yourself a favor and buy a Vanagon and go on a long road trip instead.

Instead of typing all your thoughts and experiences into your computer, why not write it down on paper? You can draw big sketches of the people you meet and the things you see. Of course it makes sense to bring along a digital camera and a big hard disk to hold your photos.
Write about what thrills you out on the road, and write it on paper so that it is personal and intimate, and when you've finally worked it into a polished gem release it to the world.
Imagine your trip as your being born a second time. "Born again" if you will. One key aspect to this is cutting the umbilical cord of the familiar and just learning all about yourself and others without any connection to the past.
Stay off the Interstates and try to find the meaning behind each town, why it exists, who its people are, etc. Then write about it and sketch whatever you feel compelled to sketch, and of course take lots of photos.

The WTC was built on bedrock. Can you seriously compare stone that rests on continental tectonic plates in the same category as software that is based on the x86? You might as well build your house on shifting sands, if those two things were analogous!
The x86 platform is cheap, fast enough, and good enough for everyday usage. However it is nowhere near ideal for mission-critical tasks. There is a reason why NASA chose to go with a Motorola chip on the Spirit and Opportunity Mars rovers. That reason is because when billions of dollars are on the line you simply can't trust Intel's architecture to deliver efficiently and reliably.
Personally, I think IBM is making a big mistake in pushing their x86 low-end servers as the Next Big Thing. It will hurt their reputation when these servers with their cheap controllers and peripherals start failing massively.
Big Iron exists and succeeds for a reason, and that reason is exactly the opposite of the reasons why the x86 platform is not a good choice.
And use Java. You can keep connections alive, and generally have a much better user experience than the 'This page has expired' crap that most web apps throw up when the user does anything remotely out of the ordinary.
Use more contrasty colors (black and white are good) in order to make your text stand out from the background. Let the TabletPC owners and makers worry about glare, but make sure that your text is easily visible through polarized sunglass lenses.
Heh. Now if they showed Big Brother heaving a hammer at her first and her ducking out of the way quickly before she shoots back, then it would be perfect!
I was watching CNN the other day and they were doing a small segment about the Mac anniversary and showed the 1984 commercial. It was the first time I noticed this, but the running girl seems to be wearing an iPod on her hip.

A prosecutor knows it is not in the best interest of his case to present exonerating evidence.
Can you trust a prosecutor to be fair to the defendant with all the evidence?
Can we trust them to be fair and unbiased in their "research"?

If you have the actual shrink-wrapped product CD with appropriate holograms, this isn't an issue.
If you're downloading god-knows-what from the Internet, you're taking a big chance, and this latest idea is probably pretty good for those people.
And hats.

Please see my journal for some issues I've been having with DHCP and USB.
That's one of those respected *Tech schools, isn't it?
I'm guessing the *actual* Top 25 school UVA isn't doing such a foolhardy thing as switching their UNIX servers to some Mac eyecandy OS.
Because I really love those jaggies that the PS2 has now.
Yeah, watching Gentoo emerge packages on a crappy PXA250 is a whole lot of fun, I'm sure.
Is the Linux desktop really the right metaphor for a palmtop device? Apple knew a desktop was wrong, Microsoft finally figured it out with PPC2002.
When will the good folks working on these Linux ports figure it out?

In my house, I'm able to shoot 54Mbps across 15ft of WiFi.
It's not too shabby, and I don't get delayed on the 11Mbps Internet connection like I did before by my 10Mbps LAN card.
