  1. Re:Regarding "Productivity", etc. on Two Reviews of Yourdon's 'Outsource?' · · Score: 0

    I have that issue. My company is in the process of outsourcing most, if not all IT functions to India/China/Brazil where labor costs are 1/4 that of an equally matched US candidate. The logic here, get more for less. For the cost of one headcount in the US, I can get 4 Indian workers of equal education/skill. But how does one keep up their productivity when you know at the end of the day, the work you are doing now will mean a pink slip for you in the future?

  2. Rules? on Phish Scams Fooling 28% of Users · · Score: 0

    Were there rules to looking at the data? All I did was view source, did a few quick DNS lookups and I got an 80. Although I got this great visa offer for my efforts

  4. Use Openoffice on Verisign Certificate Expiration Causes Multiple Problems · · Score: 1, Funny

  5. Time released information on Delivering an Earth-Shattering Discovery? · · Score: 1

    What prevents someone else coming up with the same earth shattering idea and publishing it before your discovery arrives from the stars? And if do bounce a signal off a star light years away, what is to say if anyone would be listening to that frequency in the future? Maybe by then we have lost the need of ears and are all part of the collective mind..

    Maybe you could give it to the pope and say it was given to you, "by God" and it should be published in the year X.

    That's my story and I'm sticking to it..

  6. have you tried.. on Correcting ext3 File Corruption? · · Score: 1

    Try running ls -i (that's a small I). This will list the inodes of the files. You probably have some sort of corruption.
