The Pope might want to raise the attention of idolatry: yes, the Internet can be an idol for some. And, the problem with the internet from the point of the Church is that a lot of people (see around here) are tempted to think that Church equals pedophilia.
Writing Free and Open Source Software is cool, especially if you attend high school now, but Computer Science/Engineering schools are not (just) about coding. How good are you in math? Other languages than C?
Did you see the courses MIT offers? Are those really the ones you would like to learn?
Dubbed SuperSpeed USB, the third major incarnation of the serial bus standard is set to deliver data transfer speeds of around 4.7Gb/s - ten times today's 480Mb/s limit.
Back in 1998 I was working for a large German company. In their IT centre they had the motto: "never touch a working system". And they knew this for good reason: they had a mainframe that was doing its work since 1970. I guess it works still.
It's about knowing how to solve a problem independent of any language, and then using the language that best solves the problem.
I think, following Wittgenstein, that there's no such thing as thinking independent of a language. Ok, it's not necessarily an actual programming language but you think at least in pseudocode. And I bet this thinking tends to be thinking in a C-like language. Which does not help very much if you program in Prolog or ML. Even Java needs a different mindset. I'm afraid of those 'programmers' who are not biased to any language.
It's a people-focussed world. Your degree is a ticket. Make it relevent to your overall goals, but focus on the other special experiences university has to offer.
Well, it's true and I'm sad that my CS degree did not offer too much on social skills (I mean the degree, not the pubs nearby!) but I'm not quite sure that if you want to be a sales manager you should pursue a CS degree. I was _interested_ in math an even with that found the mass of "science" overwhelming. Now imagine one with less keen on formulae...
Well, a program can be correct against a specification, but who guarantees that the specifications are correct? For a reasonably large, i.e. real-world program even the specifications are overwhelming. With a grain of salt, take this 0% bugs...
Funny, I don't remember any liberal politics in my classes on circuit analysis, mechanics, electromagnetism...
Yeah, funny, but the OP has thought of arts classes, I guess.
Movie makers make business in the first week, gaining profit in that time. Why they bother that others who are not-so-keen on watching the film early download it instead of paying at a cinema?

Hi folks, we had our /. birthday party here in Budapest. We even had a real geek birthday cake. See our photos
"The theory being: things won't be popular unless they have a good name"
That's called marketing. Read Dilbert.

If they don't understand something it does not mean it does not work.

Some researchers actually do bother: http://manticore.cs.uchicago.edu/
Are you an official spokesman for Bolshevism?
I would opt for higher order logic instead of FOL first. Programmers better appreciate this, I think. And show them a proof assistant like Isabelle.

No. We have Quality Managers...
Is Ingo Molnar working on this?
Well, I'm Hungarian, but from your relatives I've thought you are 100% Polish. There is always a Hungarian thread... :-)
for Elonka in US not, but for Ilonka in Poland, yes. That is Helen if you are a native English speaker... E is just for correct pronunciation.
