Socrate is the correct spelling. and if your going to be Flamebait. you really need to know your shit before you type up this stupid response. your lucking ran out of mod points.. i hope someone takes the time to mod your response. Damn Troll
i have been working in a Call Center for a well known insurance company. i have hated my job since the day i arrived.
i just found out i got a promotion to go to the IT department. It the postion i have been wanting for a long time.
The point of my rambling is... you have to be happy in your job. period. there is no regret due to it being steady work or just a job. if you cant stand your job. then its not worth torturing yourself.
the only reason i didnt leave is that my company has the best benefits and funny commercials. i dare not name the company just incase.
everyone is missing the point.. its not about some millionaire breaking a record...well maybe for the millionaire it is... but doing things like this opens the doors for innovation in the feild. if this works, this will give a massive ammount of data to the aviation industry to help with fuel economy on its jets. ( and lets face it, the aviation needs all the help it can get nowadays)
careful with mentioning exeem in slashdot. The Huns that read these will jump all over you like they did to me. its "adware" according to all the "hardcore"/.ers
when you lock someone in a cubicle for hours and give him a hard drive to play with... i wonder if this would catch on if it was marketed...quick someone get msft on the phone!
I agree, we do have some interesting times ahead. Chinas sheer numbers may be the reason their way of life is sucessful, i am cuban american and have seen first hand what my parants home country has become due to Fidel's Communist Dictatorship... there are so many different spins on Communisim its hard to keep up.
Your right though they seem to be evolving to a western socialist state if so. god help us... the fidel castros and small communist in the world are a small nusiance. If China in the future does get "too big for its britches" We may meet a power never before delt with in human history. and if that happens... god help us all!
i agree. the reason you have so many fanboy americans. is because there is no country like us..and no one else makes any sense = )and by the way im cuban - american so you can go play the redneck card somewhere else
you can glue a cotton ball to the back of a turtle but it doesnt make him a jack rabbit. they may have changed somethings that dont make them "technicaly" a communist country...but they still do things the communist way
they are growing... which is great for a communist country to do... if im not mistaken other than cold war russia and germany... they would probably be the first sucessful communist government to succeed in producing a government with a stable economy. its true that textiles are comming from china ( which by the way has closed a lot of factories here in columbus, ga and lost many people there jobs..but thats another story) but its hard to push your standard if the rest of the world is not using it. they could push all day long...other companies will go with the flow and follow ISO standards ( big companies like Cisco/Linksys and others) it would make sense for China to discuss why they feel their standard is better instead of stroming out... you cant act like the 800 lbs gorrilla until you weigh 800 lbs? but you bring alot of good points to the table
thank you i was about to say the same thing...you guys are talking apples and oranges. The Kyoto Accords go a lot deeper than a ISO standerds meeting...much much deeper
i would have to agree...other then producing the best, low cost , child sweat shops and product forgeries in the world...what does China really contribute to the world?
whaaaa goo goo ga ga... little baby doesnt get its way it throws a fit... is that what the world has come to... countires pitching small tantrums because they dont get their way... nevermind it being for the greater good...
federal law mandates that you can reqeust a auditor of your health and financial information from a company at any time...HIPPA which is a health privacy law and Graham-Leach-Biley act ( which we use all the here at work) mandate that a person can request in writing to a company any time that his/her financial info was released to another company/person and the reasons behind it...these things are in place..its just getting companies to follow it
between t-mobiles lack security and paymaxx inc leak of w-2 information, i really cant blame anyone for worrying about online trust failing.
i remember a few years back when online shopping first got started and everyone was worried about buying stuff online due to fraud. Now, when almost everyone started getting comfortable with the idea of online payments , and online billing, and online banking. now is when certain companies start to slip...and i feel its going to cause people to go back to that same mind set that nothing is safe on the net....
god forgive them for corporate america knows not what they do!
it seems that "big blue" is finally understanding how Linux and open source is going to change computing. In the last few months there has been lots of news with IBM opening up to the open source community and this news along with their new business model which highly implements linux/and open source. I belive this may be a hugh push forward for linux to become widely accepted. That, and for IBM to get back some ground in the industry.
