  1. Teach someone else on Options for Adults with Renewed Interest in Math? · · Score: 2

    I found when I teac someoen else anything I learn it better than the person I am teaching. I learn at least three programming languages. This way I did it in all my math courses when I sit down and try to explain something to someone it sticks better in my mind. Also find someone who is willing to teach you what you cannot understand on your own.
    Have fun

  2. Seek Though shall find on Open Source as Programming Exp. for College Students? · · Score: 1

    I am about to graduate soon. I had an intership, a job, and side work that has given me experience in computer science. Myself I a math major with a cs minor but I know I will have no problem finding jobs out there (because I already have one). I known people who got jobs because of a website they developed. You can think of OpenSource project like a profilio. Also there are plently of small businesses who need someone to do some type of programming work for them. You can either do some pro bono work for them or charge them. There are plenty of chooses out there for you to show you got the stuff you just have to look for them.

  3. Re:Why? on Linux 2.2.20 is Out · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Becuase alot of people still use that kernel version. The nice people they are they like to keep do update even some of the older stuff also since they know some people still like using that kernel version.

  4. The Weakest Link on Undercover Hacking, For Money · · Score: 2

    Is most of the time the Human one. This story just proves it. I have plenty of times used talk my way into places I should not have. Either because I was just a familar face (but not one that should be where I am) or I just seem like I should be there. That would be a fun job to have. Well have fun ppl

  5. New Standard Maybe but not for now on DirectFB: A New Linux Graphics Standard? · · Score: 2

    There are many apps that will need to be ported over in order for this thing to fly. I do see that they do have a gtk port so that will help in getting some application ported over. I would like to see the best of both worlds here. They can even port Xfree86 to DirectFB but that will only defeat the purpose. What I will really like to see next is the Troll Tech libray port of directfb which will really another good portion of apps to directfb. if we can do that the mayabe in a few years we can see this as the next new standard.

  8. The one thing I need to know on Monitor One-Upmanship From IBM · · Score: 1

    Does it run on linux?

  9. Extent of Damage on Structural Damage to the Financial District · · Score: 1

    Is just amazing. I hope the effort goes well. And we all come out of this stronger. I hope we all see that most of problems that we have are very petty and start working on making ourselfs better.

  10. I am glad to see a private company on Alaskan Space Port Prepares for First Launch · · Score: 2

    Getting into the Space Race. Let us see if they get into the space travler business.

  11. Can companies silence consumers? on MS FrontPage Restricts Free Speech II (It's True!) · · Score: 1

    The first amendment restricts the government from restricting free speech. Companies can stop their partners, employees, and consultants from speaking against them. The EULA does not stop consumers from speaking out against Micro$haft. Nothing is forcing you to buy FrontPage so the argument that Micro$haft stopping free speech is a bit of a stretch to me. You do not have to use FrontPage you can use what ever you want to create an anti-Micro$haft website. I do remember seeing a anti-Micro$haft site that was done in FrontPage. If I can find I will post it.

  12. It is their Radio Station their business on ClearChannel Plays It Safe · · Score: 1

    No is stopping you from listening to the music. And anyways the radio is already censored so. The station is must likely trying not to affend anyone if you want to listen to those songs then go to the music store find another station or find the MP3 somewhere. Well anyways have fun.

  13. Let the Solution meet the problem on Exchange vs. Linux/390 Comparison · · Score: 2

    This article did not even touch on the issue of downtime. For most business some of these solution are over kill. But it is nice to see people give a decent overview off the cost for high end equipment. I would like to see IBM come out with some stuff for the little guy for linux.

  14. Include the User on Linux Development Call To Arms · · Score: 4, Insightful

    That is a novel idea. The fact about linux/unix the "User" tends to be more knowledge able so he can get around things the "avereage user" might not. The way to Linux more mainstream is for people to start studies on the features the user really need and want. The GUI designs that really work. What is needed input back from users on what works and how things can be improved. We are doing some of these things now. I hope this research continues

  15. Random Sampling on Y2K Bug Blamed For Miscalculated Down Syndrome Risk · · Score: 2

    Would have done found the problem earlier. If they would have only done some of the calculations by hand every few test this would have been found alot earlier. I also blame the doctors they should be able to look at the results and sense something was wrong. I hope everything turns out ok for these women.

  16. Simple solution are the best on Simplicity In the Age Of The GUI · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Most people these days think they need complexity in there life. Most of the time there are simple solutions that will solve our problems

    We will donate to the redcross from every t-shirt sold
    or please donate directly to the redcross either by blood or money

  18. Theory on More Links And Reports On Terrorist Attacks · · Score: 2

    Maybe it is Bin Ladin who is attacking Afghanistan and attacked NYC and DC. Maybe He is trying to take over that country and start his "world domination". Yes I know it sound so cliche but you never now. He does want to create a solid muslim state so this might be the beginning of that process. I will most likely be marked as a troll but I can not do anything about that.

  19. A new day of infamy on Our New Pearl Harbor · · Score: 1

    This day is one that I fear. These actions will not only affect the US but almost every country in the world. As I sit by the TV and hear even more information about this tragedy. My heart sinks not only because what happen today but will happen tommorow. We all know there will be a witch hunt. WHat will happen after to today we do not know but all I hope it happens soon and with at little blood sheed as possible.

  20. I hate to say this on World Trade Towers and Pentagon Attacked · · Score: 1

    But this might help the US economy might help business get going agian the slump that we are in will soon disappear.

  21. I hope this does not on World Trade Towers and Pentagon Attacked · · Score: 1

    Hurt people who should not have be hurt. Such any people who were from the region that the terrorist may come from. I hope he government does not start a witch hunt. I feel for the people been directly affected by the act. I hope they find thier peace.

  22. Start Measuring and Drawing on Building a DIY Home Office? · · Score: 1

    Yourself some plans. Of what exactly what you would like. With some graph paper layout out your room. Then decide exacly your space requirement. Think about things like raising your boxes off the floor. Starting making your plans get a couple of buddies for a few weekends buy them some beer and have fun.

  23. Selling an unusable product on Record Companies Sued Over Charley Pride CD · · Score: 1

    That is what they are really doing. ALOT of people buy cd so they can use them in their car and computer. They are selling what is thought to be a regular cd when it is really an "crippled" version of a cd. That is really what is going on here. I hope she wins

  24. Why is this suprising? on When Lego Meet Rubik · · Score: 0, Troll

    There are already solutions out there for solving Rubik Cube puzzles. So the only thing you would have to do is figure out how to move the cube and decipher the colors.
    I am not saying I can just go out and do it tommorow but this hardly comes as a suprise.
    Have Fun
