This is wonderful news for Mozilla. With the increasing popularity of FireFox among non-geeks, now is the perfect time to convert Outlookers to Thunderbird.
Exactly. And I'm not just saying this because I'm a chick.
I will be the first to tell you that I naturally SUCK at math.
I am almost done my undergrad Comp Sci program and already have a very well-paying job in the industry. When I schooled full time, the math KILLED me, while most of the males did great. I had to work my tail off to get Bs and that one random A. If I didn't understand (at least on a high level) the math behind Comp Sci., how could I finish out the degree?
My point (and the parent's): Just because you're not naturally good at something, it doesn't mean you can't succeed at it.
I actually wrote a program using both Caps and Scroll Lock in my Intro to Assembler class once. The gist was that it read the Caps, Scroll, and Shift registers and told you if they were depressed or not. The only way to break the loop and exit the program was to press a certain combination of shift, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock. A rather useless program, but it served its purpose (reading and interpreting registers).
I am not dismissing that some of the stuff on TFA's site may be propaganda. This article about PBDEs and computer processors, however, is not. I found this story today.
(Actually, I logged on to Slahdot to submit the CNN story and saw that it had already been published from another source.)
You will take a lot of math. I am a third-year CS major (and yes, I'm a girl!), and so far I have taken...
1. Trig 2. Calc I/II 3. Linear Algebra 4. Discrete Structures 5. Computer Architecture (which was a boolean logic/circuit theory class... yes, it was math)
All of these fell under the MAT prefix in the school catalog.
Basically, I am two classes away from a Math minor at this point. You probably will be, too!
This system is already available for DWI offenders. I live in Maryland, and a friend of mine drove drunk while under the influence... the next time I saw him, he had one of these contraptions on his car... we affectionately called it "blow-n-go."
But that is just the thing... I absolutely love what I do... it comes naturally, and I'm good at it. The cash is just icing on the cake. I am just wondering if I am going to become outsourced one day anyway...
...and I just finished my first semester of "online" learning. I am 3/4 of the way through my Bachelor's in Comp/Info Science, and just wrapped up my mid-spring semester. I took two classes that were completely online because I now have an awesome full-time IT job. Granted, I did well, but Internet classes take much more discipline than the "traditional" lecture and/or lab; plus, there is something to be said for the classroom environment - no matter how we try to emulate it via technology, nothing can take its place. I am all for incorporating instant messaging, chats, etc. into the classroom, but in my opinion, there is no substitute.

"Any advice for frustrated users, especially non-technical users?"
/. for advice?
Would the non-techies be reading
Surely there has to be some sort of standard to measure each contribution (or contributor).
I'm a college student and would probably just get the info from one of my own textbooks...
Suppose you were elected to the finals. Do they pay any flight/room costs? (Due to the recent Slashdotting, I can't RTFA and answer my own question.)
If this guy's product takes off and the price is right, it may give WebTrends a run for its money (literally).

It's the great AOL coaster giveaway!

Americans insource you?
Don't tell me this! I am so close to my Computer and Info Science degree... although luckily for me, I already have a job in the field...

I predict that the next story will be:

I'm about a year shy of my Computer/Info Science degree. Am I headed in the wrong direction?
Don't forget to change your name too!
CNN.com has this story too.
Pretty spiffy if you ask me... I always thought the holographic technology in Minority Report was phatty...

Kazaa's next version will be K++0x.
Gummi has all the important features, albeit in crude versions...
Which means that Gummi has all of the porn you will ever need...
Unisys will reapply for the patent in a GIFfy.
