Numerical methods are a must for approximations to calculus operations in computer programming.
Also, high-level probability courses are important for things like signal processing, although admittantly this is more of a computer engineering/electrical engineering requirement.
Quite honestly, I hold Electrical or Computer Engineers with higher esteem than CS grads. Not that CS isn't vital to many companies; I just feel that the practical, physical designs associated with engineering are the more respectable components of computing.
Just more proof that some Linux users are far too elitist. Who cares if the firefox logo is trademarked? Now we'll have two distros of firefox. This is what I hate about open source. Too many daughter projects spin off the main one and the original project becomes less focused.
95% of the time games are not long enough. Take Zelda: OOT, Final Fantasy, Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid, etc. The one exception for me was Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, but I think I killed it by going to the item world too much.
Nice try. Comskip is a free, open source commercial-detection program for windows. There are several free or open source PVR apps for Windows. None of them are as difficult to set up as mythtv.
That's all well and good, but most people do not have DVR (I too have it and skip commercials). However, if I were viewing the show live, I would not be interested in their advertisement for "Brotherhood" since it WILL NOT ACTUALLY HAVE CLIPS FROM THE SHOW!!!
Moreover, they are advertising their new show to people who will then record the show and SKIP THOSE COMMERCIALS TOO! The whole idea is moronic, really.
Bah. I tried for a week to get mythTV to work with my hauppauge PVR-500, a card which mythTV said WAS COMPATIBLE, but I got nada -- even after changing tuner types manually channels above 50 would not work. The response from the mailing list? "Oh that's a new revision, those don't work." I switched to windows and installed GB-PVR and I couldn't be happier.
I'm left handed, but I use my right hand for scissors and mouse operation.
Actually, I LOVE spiral notebooks: I only write on the left page (so it looks like I am writing on the back of each page) and dare I say it works wonderfully. Try it sometime!
Have you read the Hitchhiker's Guide? I'm pretty sure Arthur Dent (not to mention the Earth) finds out the difference between publicly available and publicly announced when his house is demolished.
Keep in mind there's another function of this. By setting your status to "single" you are broadcasting yourself as "available," whether it be for random play or serious relationships. What college student is going to turn down a chance to get laid for some so-called "privacy"?
This was all public information. Now it's been announced. See the difference?
Let's say I break up with my girlfriend. Previously, I would simply change my relationship status to "single." Eventually, my closer friends would notice that my relationship status changed.
Now, it is announced to the world as soon as it would happen. There's a difference between publicly available and publicly announced. As an analogy: the former is adding a line in your slashdot personal profile that you had a divorce. The latter is having a story greenlighted on slashdot, that you just had a divorce. Both are public information, but would you really want it announced?
Just because we choose to disclose something does not mean we wish to draw attention to it when the situation changes. Even something as innocuous as an invitation to a party shows up; if I decline the invitation, everyone knows I just declined.
You are not a college student, and you do not live in the same sort of social environment where it is encouraged to share contact information publicly to be included in events and meet new people. We knowingly give up some of our privacy when we do so, but there is a limit.
I'm sure if I dug around your website or google, I could find your (real) email address, so why don't you post it on slashdot? It's public information, after all? What about your phone number? Knowing your name and city, I could easily find it, so why isn't it in your slashdot profile? It's not in your profile because you don't want to call attention to it.

would have gone.
They do, however, filter bittorrent traffic :(
/me wonders how this is news
Way to go, Debian.
So the Brotherhood of Steel is actually Japanese...

I wish I had moderator points for you, sir.
I'm a leftie and I want to play left-handed. Miyamoto, save the lefties!

Linux is a series of tubes!
I'm gonna call BS on this guy. I get my lectures online for free at college.
So now Linux users consider themselves "people"? What is the world coming to...
Well you could always delete all your extra icons. Seriously, having 8 desktops per monitor is nothing special.
/Only requires ONE desktop for all his computing needs.
Try GB-PVR. It runs on windows and is free.
Knoppmyth is nowhere NEAR easy to set up. I say from experience that it is not "pop in the disc and run." I never got it to work.

When students realized it was easy to hook up over facebook.

Unless, of course, you wanted to keep track of their phone numbers, birthdays, what classes they take, pictures they took on trips, etc.
