I was there too. Now a PhD student at a top school. I don't think I would have learned C++ until many years later without the free copy of VS6.
(Though to remind you, the reason we got the free copy was because we were not allowed to see something that was promised in the contest description and I think someone's lawyer parents threatened MS)
I don't understand why Jr. High and High School students don't fill out evaluations of their teachers, just like in universities. Even though some students will say immature stuff, I am guessing that they are the best way to meter a teacher's performance.
I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot of people who want to teach, but want to work a regular job as well. I'm not sure how it would work logistically, but it would be nice if they were able to sign up as a "consultant-teacher" to teach one class in their area of expertise with no long term commitment.
Is anyone else worried about viruses on Android? While I'm sure apple doesn't go too far to vet security, Google doesn't really examine Android apps much at all. I wouldn't be surprised if trojans, etc get distributed through the Android marketplace in the near future
This should be about following the law. If Obama supporters turn this into a partisan thing, then it will be Michigan and Florida all over again.
Obama's stance there was to let the party decide, because the candidates really shouldn't push for election regulations in their favor.
Obama's stance here will likely be to let the state decide, because it is a state matter and candidates can't bend the law to keep a party in power.
Obviously both positions favor him, so he will get flamed for it, but they are also both the right thing to do.
Here the libertarians are right. If parties can bend the rules to keep themselves in power, you don't have a true democracy.
There is no evidence (at least in the presentation) that they illegally accessed the subway. They just showed an image of some computer showing their updated account balance. They could have just done that and not actually gotten a free ride.
The security companies don't like this because part of the class teaches how to get around Firewall software.
While most security classes teach concepts and how to hack software designed as an example, this is demonstrating exploits on production software out in the wild.
The best definition for average is probably "typical". It is an idea rather than a precise measure. Usually, though, it does mean "arithmetic mean" so you are right in that regard.
A reverse DNS lookup will tell you a lot about whether an IP you are sending to is a home user or a corporation.
I wouldn't be surprised if they use this also (though Net Neutrality legislation might stop it).
Personally, I would want people to see everything of my life they wanted to, raw. If you are troubled, you are probably struggling to get people to understand you, and you would probably really appreciate people trying.

Apple is a design firm and should be classified as such

Smaller transistors means more efficient transistors. It's not just about size.
It also means noisy circuits.

It's open source. Just remove the terms of service and recompile.
Is that a breakout disease would have a much higher chance of destroying all people on the planet.

I would never be able to bike to work and not offend people.
Is there a secret trick?
Agreed. I can write math in Texmacs as fast as I can do it by hand.
I'm pretty sure that means "Spelling InCorrect"

Perhaps I'll sell a trojan for $0.99. Then I'll be able to access computers legally of people who do not pay for a license.
Doesn't the next id technology used for the game Rage do this on any surface?
Perhaps it is because you are the one who has been misled.
The great firewall doesn't block slashdot?
I wonder how many false-positives they have

Otherwise, if the math was invented as a tool that is not necessary (i.e. there are other ways to do it), then it is invented.
