As well as a broad range of basic skills, there are a couple of Comp. Sci. skills that I like to see, and without these I tend to be more cautious:
- Compiler Construction
- Formal Methods
- Parallel Programming
These broad heading are the general indicator of what I am looking for, I think they give the kind of depth that you will come back to again and again in a career.
So I look at what options my prospective employee has taken in their Comp. Sci. Degree.
If I see optional courses taken that fall into the categories above, they go to the top of the list. If they have instead taken lots of multimedia, web or softer options instead I will be more cautious (unless of course I am looking for these particular skills)
There are a number of emerging technologies that enable very smooth scaling between single data centre (trad colo), single data centre + single cloud provider, single data centre + multiple cloud providers, multiple data centre + multiple cloud providers and all using the same base application stack.
These emerging technologies enable the configuration of your application, using underlying grid-type infrastructure, to deploy in multiple physical and virtual environments.
By virtualising the virtualisation (for want of a better term) they enable the rick to be spread so widely as to reduce it below the level of concern.
This enable the application architect to choose the correct mix from highly available but expensive infrastructure (e.g. data centre) and highly scalable and better cost infrastructure (e.g. cloud service with no SLA) to support the application. Flexible scalability and Flexible resilience.
Watch this space as these new players come up fast.

In the 1970s, it was calculated that the entire population of the earth could stand, quite comfortably, in an area approximately the size of the Isle of White.
Probably need a bigger island now, but COME ON!
Quote: This is the classic F111 routine. Flying past at a maximum of 350kts, fuel is jettisoned from the aircraft and the afterburner is engaged. The unburned fuel ignites, creating an effect that always turns heads. If this maneuver is attempted at > 350 kts, the fuel will not ignite. This is why they tend to go vertical during the maneuver.Dump 'n Burn
This is one of the reasons the board recommended that all future shuttle flights (apart from the already scheduled Hubble Servicing Mission), fly to the ISS, or in Orbits that are capable of rendevousing with the ISS
That is NOT one of the panels recommendations!

Less than 1% of the spam that hits hour servers is from a source inside the UK.
It is very hard indeed to imagine how this is going to help stem the flow of spam.
The restrictions on banner addvertising is going to be interesting in practice.
Anyone care to guesse how these regulations are going to be interpreted pragmatically?
How will it affect already shrinking banner advert revenues?

Landslides are probably a far more likely explanation.
We see patterns like this all the time
