I'd like to get into teaching a 100-level IT class at my alma mater's branch campus. Do I need to get a master's to do that, or is a Bachelors in the subject I'll be teaching and some work experience enough?
The Project Ornithopter engine-powered piloted aircraft, which is based on the technology of the Harris/DeLaurier model, self accelerated (flapping alone) on level pavement to lift-off speed.
No, just everyone downstream and a lot of the Chesepeake ecosystem, since it's built right in the middle of the Susquehanna River, which runs through some of the most fertile farmland in the country.
People with nothing to do are the worst kind of people. Remember what it was like in high school? All the stupid little games about who was popular? Now imagine the entire Earth being like that.

Or a pair of Nikes made by 10-year-old slave labor. Or a shirt made by a woman who is chained to a sewing machine twelve hours a day. Or a little piece of plastic crap made by someone in China who doesn't have political or religious freedom.
Globalization wouldn't be so bad if there was a level playing field, as there is between Japan, Europe and the US. But it is wrong to support regimes and companies who stomp all over human rights and environmental policies to lower costs a few cents so their shareholders can buy that new yacht.
Corporations have a duty to their shareholders to make money. This is nothing new.
And governments have a duty to their subjects to protect them from tyranny, or be overthrown. Our country is founded on this principle. Why do we support China and Indonesia and Saudi Arabia with trade when they don't provide their people with basic human rights?
Bandwidth is like software. It should be freely available to all. This encourages people to develop business models around it and therefore it increases commerce and trade, which helps the economy.
This is why I prefer a local cooperative that is mandated by the government not to make a profit; that anything over expenses is voted on by its members as to its use (refund, reinvestment). It's worked for credit unions. Where else could a 23 year old get a $5,000 line of credit witha 9.9% fixed interest rate, and free bill pay and internet banking?
I read somewhere that 95% of coding is done in-house for to create non-sales value. I make money coding, too, but I do custom web apps that aren't for sale. I wouldn't lose anything by open-sourcing my software; the client already has the stuff they need, and I already have my money.
And since no open source software is perfect for every problem, I'll have a job customizing the open source for specific clients.
I have some ideas that I can turn into a business. But I'd rather open source them and then use them to help people. That way, I get more people using my idea (which makes me feel good), I get to get paid for doing things I like to do (which makes me feel good), and I get to see other people getting paid for using my tool to solve a problem, which also makes me feel good.
And we don't have to rely on hobbyist coders for software. Look at Red Hat or SUSE; they are making profits *and* creating open source software. People there are getting paid to improve open source.
*You* strike *me* as someone who can't see the full ramifications of open source. It's not about giving things away for free. It's about creating tools that help people like you and me solve more problems.
Simple solution: Download a knoppix iso. Burn iso and boot from it. Download all the MSFT patches you can using Linux. Disconnect computer (physically) from the Internet and reboot. Install patches, reconnect computer.
Or, download Knoppix, boot into Knoppix, wipe the HD and install Linux.
Google offers an easy way to remove your images from a site. If you put information on the Internet, you expect it to be indexed by Google. If it gets indexed by Google, so will the pictures. So you go there and tell them "Don't index my pictures" if you have a problem with this. Google does this automatically, so it's not like they're even targetting this guy's site.
I don't see how Google is doing anything wrong. If the idiot pr0n guy didn't want his pictures nicked, he should have taken the obvious and simple steps to keep them out of Google's image search.
The plurality of people who voted for Bush voted for him because of his "moral values," which is code for "he won't let two dudes get married, and he won't let women have operations."
So, yes, saying that it's all about two dudes getting married *does* make me feel better. As does saying most people who vote for Bush *or* Kerry are deluded in the fact that they think the government is to blame for most of their problems.

I use it to generate easy-to-remember but hard-to-guess passwords. Just run through it a couple times until you find one that suits you.
What client are you using I use Gaim on Windows and Adium (based on gaimLib) on OS X and I don't have any of those problems.

You write English very well for a non-native speaker. However, I would expect nothing less from a six-digit UID. :-)

I have one wireless network I can subscribe to; my own. The nearest other one is my parents, about 1/4 mile away.
And neither of them are "linksys."
Is that with or without the pictures?
Because half the time the employee doesn't know what wireless is, and the other half it's not there.
Not that that's happened to me, according to my lawyer.
And if it went at around 8AM or 5PM, I'd be one of them.

It's also poorly coded Java that runs slower than a retarded snail on NyQuil. That's reason enough for me to avoid it.

I have the opposite problem. I test my pages in Firefox, and when they don't work in IE I have to break them so they display correctly. Fun!
What's wrong with that? Isn't that what we're supposed to do? Isn't that what makes capitalism work?
