In the real world, no amount of tips and tricks is going to make up for a bad schedule. We end up doing code reviews while are software is in verification and validation. Is that smart? No. But when you need to get features done, that takes priority. As for documentation, that always falls to the wayside as well. The truth of the matter is this. The only way to make schedule is to totally inflate your time estimates on the project. We developed a rule of taking the engineers estimates and double them. Of course we're still running a little late;)
This shows that eBay fears Google's new service. Ebay is starting to show its age and lack of innovation. It needs competition from the likes of Google and anyone else that can challenge them. I stopped using eBay due to the high fees. Good luck Google and I hope you bring a good fight!
AMD produces a better/cheaper product. Why bother using Intel right now anyways? Intel has held the lead for so long because of marketing, not performance/quality. I'm glad to see Intel having their feet put to the fire... maybe they'll focus on quality and not marketing.
I would like to see a few more test groups added to this. How about the average pot smoking teenager, the girl putting makeup on, and my personal favorite that I saw recently... a woman brushing her teeth!
This case was a complete waste of time and effort. Hopefully they will disappear into the woodwork never to be seen or heard from again. Quite pathetic that it went on this long.
Lemme guess, MS is all pissed off because Vista won't ship anytime soon and they aren't making cash on it. So now they have to increase revenue by making people buy XP who may not have legit copies? I sure hope some 16 year-old hacker takes care of this problem for good.
Look at lie detectors, we still don't understand those and they have proven time and time again to be faulty at best. Depending on this a sole source of information is foolish.
If you don't like their policy, just leave the school. Eventually they will see the error in their ways. This is just a growing trend and is going to get worse. Social networking sites are a rather new addition and once the hype dies down, so will stupid stories like this.
You can also find solutions that will hold several more drives. This could be usefull for small form factor setups that people (myself included) use for pvrs. Small, reliable, cool running.
The whole point of having a computer is to free yourself from paper. So why would you take a step back and try to digitally emulate a system that is antiquated? A computer offers endless opportunities for organizing and storing data, I see this as a step back.
Why was there no development on IE for several years? If you were on every release of IE, you must have noticed this... you're workload would have been really small;)
Now India will feel the pain as jobs are outsourced to Asia and Eastern Europe where rates are cheaper! Pretty soon, people in Zimbabwe will be coding:)
Then there are probably few survivors at Microsoft. Ozzie has his work cut out. You can brag about Lotus Notes all you want, but that was developed from scratch when you can make the proper design decisions. But with Windows being bloated and out of control, you just can't clean it up and make it more simple... can you? It seems like there putting to much faith in Ozzie... like a silver bullet. Gonna be tough to undo years and years of neglect.
