Bioware was started by two medical doctors who wrote code in their garage for fun. Just don't suck, or be really good at what you do, and you will find a job.
Kingdom of Loathing with capped adventuring is the only way that those of us that don't have a million hours to kill playing a game can remain competitive with a time investment of 20 minutes everyother day or so.
And not only that, but isn't carrying a very large magnet on board an aircraft a bad idea? I know most navigation equipment is GPS based nowadays but isn't there a backup analog compass that would go haywire around this thing no matter how shielded it is? This may not be an issue on unmanned aircrafts, but it just seem practical on manned aircrafts. Just my two cents...
Lord Rutherford was firing electrons at a sheet of gold foil and had no idea that the nucleus existed. There's a great quote from him about the amazement of discovery of the atomic nucleus. He was just playin with the ol' electron gun trying to prove that electrons were small enough to pass through matter or something like that and then a few of the electrons bounced back at him. He then correctly deduced the nucleus of the atom. I would say thats a pretty important discovery by accident.
Honestly, I am a biology major. I took an intro to Java class because I was interested in it and a few of my lab buddies joined me in this endeavor. If it is an intro class it would have been neat to see some of the underlying compiler options stuff, but it would have been out of the range of the course. We used NetBeans because everyone could download a copy no matter what OS they used, so the professor and TAs only had to deal with tech support stuff for one program i guess... but really any lightweight multi-platform and free IDE will do I guess. I tend to agree with those that said that stuff should be upper division stuff. One of the neat things about Java and Python is that they are such accessible languages and because of that many non-computer science people take classes in them.
On that note, Windows has always come bundled with IE but there have always been alternatives. I am actually willing to bet money that the anti-spyware bundled with Vista will blow just as hard and, more than likely, be just as much a security liability as IE.

Motel? Who titled this? Is this new establishment for intergalactic hookers?
Not as much as Paranthropus boisei makes me think of potatos....
YAY!!! Faster pr0n!!!

Hmm... so basically we are inoculating bacterial franchises?
As long as its not the restaurant from the end of Spaceballs we're cool.
