Millions of years of evolution makes animals crave high calorie fatty food and eat as much of it as possible, because they never know when they're going to get the opportunity to do so again. Human beings are no different.
I'd take the one with more psychology. Knowledge of how human memories are built and rebuilt is important for dealing with users who complain about bugs in features that were never implemented.
And yes, you will encounter this as a programmer, especially if you inherit someone else's old legacy code.
While I am philosophically opposed to Ruby as a programming language, I ultimately decided to do all of my web development with Rails because the Ruby community (unlike the PHP community) puts all their development efforts behind a single, standardized framework that can have lots of books, tutorials, and examples written about it.
I'm guessing that when you were in college getting a somewhat less menial job that pays somewhat more than minimum wage didn't depend on having a college degree and the folks who did go to college were actually interested in learning (I don't know this for sure. I wasn't around then).
I think a lot of people today go to class just so they can attain that job-hunting license that offers the prospect of not flipping burgers and eating ramen noodles for 30 years.
The US isn't a perfect country. But when our presidential election results were disputed (Bush vs Gore) no one got beaten, killed, arrested, or severely harassed by the authorities.
The highly intelligent life would find it bizarre that some organisms would actually thrive in an atmosphere with such a dangerous and corrosive gas like oxygen.
The system makes use of a skull cap and wireless technology to transform brain waves into letters.
Geek #1: At my cousin's bar-mitzvah they had this enormous LAN party where everyone was wearing a mind reading computer, which was really sweet, but no one wanted to play with me and everyone was talking in some funny language.
Geek #2: That wasn't a LAN party, you idiot, that was a synagogue.
What I believe the IIPA is saying that mandates to use open source without considering other alternatives is something they see as a barrier to market access and what they consider to be a non-illegal but misguided solution to the problem of piracy. They're not saying that using OSS users are pirates.
And then came the Python that ate the mouse that drank the Cocoa that sweetened Java that dissolved the Perl that replaced the Ruby that my father bought for zuzim.
The Federation needs more H1B visas so they can outsource security from Qu'onos. Plus, they can pay them less as long as they offer free Bloodwine as a perk.
A projector wouldn't make Pico any more pleasant to use on a cellphone. Plus, you'd get all the DRM activists complaining that they hate Pico and that Apple won't let them projected emacs and vi on their iPhones.

I find the concept of mathematicians having fanboys who flame each other over proofs to be disturbing.
You're making the dangerous assumption that the "big guvment's" harshest critics can read.
Which antivirus package do you infect Windows with?
Wouldn't a 50 arm processor-powered iPad clone be really heavy and go through its battery life in 5 minutes?

Sorta like a room of Focused zipheads in Vernor Vinge's Deepness In The Sky.
