This is why you should always make sure you're attending an accredited college. Also if you get an associates degree almost all universities will accept that as you lower general education.
Yes this does indeed suck, there are some splitters out there so I can charge and listen but honestly the battery life last a long time streaming video and the charger is very very fast. However this doesn't stop it from being a pain in the ass. Why they didn't put in two ports boggles my mind.
Must be a shitty ploy, my brand new HTC bolt came with wired headphones. They are usb-c headphones but they are wired and they sound really really good. A cheap ass dongle will let me use my 3.5mm headphones if I so desire. I was butt hurt at first but I've gotten used tho them. Now if it was bluetooth only I would have taken this thing back in a heartbeat.
Wow I made a completely serious comment and it gets branded as being a Troll. Well here's to burning more, Slashdot is fucking full of misogynistic a-holes who can't have a discussion like a grown up.
Actually it is, because diversity brings new opinions and viewpoints. If all you hire are white men you're only going to ever have the viewpoints of white men. And if the talent pool is heavily biased against non white men you need to go out of your way to choose diversified talent to make your company better.
Your assumption only works if everyone in the talent pool had the same opportunities to get into the talent pool. If the talent pool is 95 percent white male maybe you should ask why that is.
They had an admin page that eventually let me figure it out. I was very surprised by the behavior. It could have been a defective router but the DD-WRT fixed all issues with it.
I've seen it all over the place in America. Lots of industrial equipment is running older stuff and they had to upgrade their wifi to not interfere with even brand new equipment running very old standards.
I dumped mine because I was wanting speeds higher than G. But the DD-WRT was so much better than the shit firmware Linksys had in there. I was having to reboot the router at least once a week because it wasn't emptying its cache and a million other odd behaviors. Pushed DD-WRT on there and it was rock solid for several years.
I've spent many years in the AWS (Automated Warehousing Solutions) industry. I've seen automated warehouses with huge industrial cranes moving 500 pound drums and tiny little pill box pickers. I've seen systems run 24x7 with almost no human intervention unless a robot drops something. How the hell did it take them this long to get some basic pickers running.
I can only think their warehouses are just a clusterfuck of different items in the same bin or whatever they call it. If so their inventory system was shit to begin with.
I think it's not just this but anything created by computers is now called AI. I read an article in Wired that had me throwing the magazine out the window about how close we are to true machine learning.
We're not even close, as a software engineer I fucking hate things called AI. True AI is so far from us it's redonkulous. Yeah it triggers me whenever I see LOOK AI MADE THIS!!
I have the opposite experience. I use Skype for business at work and have no issues with it. It can be a little slow, I don't like how I have to accept conversations but other than that I never have it crash or act any kind of weirdness.
How many homeless file a tax return to begin with? I bet most of them don't have a drivers license or know their SSN number. You have to some kind of mailing address or permanent residence for these things. The people I think it would hit hardest by being online are the elderly and working poor. But they can always call the toll free number and talk to a person.
This right here, TFS is so distorted. He didn't make it past round 1 in his state, so he jumped the border (with his schools's permission) in order to try again. They had rules against this for a very good reason.
I still use it but I've submitted many bugs and feature requests since version 5.X something and they're still not fixed. I offered to fix them since I've been doing win32/MFC for 15 years and nothing. If it weren't so mature already I'd ditch it in a heartbeat.
I couldn't disagree more, one of his most popular series outside of Ender is pretty much a straight rip off of the Book Of Mormon. And for those who don't know that is the main religious text of his faith the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He is an outspoken douchebag verbally and in writing and I couldn't be more glad to see his work not get published,
I agree, I'm not surprised but still saddened to see the pricks coming out of the wood work here. I have an app on sourceforge that my next big step is to add localization. It's a hard thing to do, control lengths, poor translations, etc. But you never know who might be using something you release out into the wild.
What a bunch of bullshit. I've been working on code written by people who don't speak a lick of English and it's all C or C# and its good code. Just because you don't get the language doesn't mean the code is bad or they suck. God I hope you're not American because you're making us look bad.
After working for various companies, if they're a US only company sure. But anything with a remote chance of having non US/English speakers is doubtful. I am currently working on code chock full of Japanese comments and variable names. It's a huge freaking PITA. And I'm sure they hate it when I add English comments and variable names to their pristine Japanese code.
As a C# programmer I would take 2x4 to someone for doing any kind of non trivial code in a property. It violates all the C# good practices. Just like in C++ you can do some stupid shit. Does that make it a bad language? No it makes you a somewhat douchebag programmer.
I agree 100%, I used to work for a DoD contractor that required secret security clearance. Somehow I managed to pass but I referred several people who didn't make it past the preliminary background check. All of them were extremely competent and excellent programmers. However I found some were because of bankruptcy and others had actual criminal backgrounds. I agree loosening the rules would increase the pool of applicants but in the eyes of the US government who are you trusting with what can be very sensitive information. They only want squeaky clean individuals to keep their risk down. But then they get guys like Bradley Manning who decide to steal info pretty much from right under his bosses noses so I don't know. It's double sided but I see why they do it.
I have to agree with this, here in Utah they re-drew the entire state's districts for the house and congress to skew even more Republic then we already do and to especially screw Jim Matheson. It made all the local news, papers, and even the local NPR but no one I knew hardly gave a shit.
1. Buy or get a machine to host SVN for version control. I work on my wife's company website and some basic management tools. SVN has saved my bacon on multiple times where I thought I had lost some code.
2. Get a pre-production server and test your code! Sounds like you're living in the wild west and that shit flies until something goes horribly wrong and you're the guy who gets blamed.

FP Also I tried to read the brief and as a CS major it was above my head. Must be a math thing.
