We have an "-1 disagree" it's just mislabeled as "-1 troll" and "-1 flamebait" well, it's not mislabeled, it's just frequently used as such. Probably since every side has a legitimate claim to air time no matter how dishonest, incompetent or corrupt it may be.
Name and shame them. Print out the email and post it on the telephone poles outside the establishment. Do it from time to time as a hobby and let's see how long they keep trying that.
I tend to agree as well, I've gone through massive swings in personality and interest over the years. It took a lot of work, but I am very different than I was back then. There probably is an element of truth in that inertia is likely set by that point. In that one tends to have to fight if one doesn't want to be type cast permanently. There's a lot of reinforcement that goes on and a lot of pressure not to rock the boat by changing.
Depends, 70k in education would be personal development money. And depending upon what you spent it on, that could be money well spent. Or it could be pissing it down a hole as well. Really depends.
Also, if being stripped naked and publicly flogged is your thing, you can get a lot of that action for 70k.
Yeah, that's why I ended up not doing any work for them. The pay rates were abysmally low for what was quite a bit of work. A penny is barely enough to click a link, let alone actually read it. Also a lot of the opportunities were little more than an effort to defraud advertisers and the public by posting fake reviews and clicking on specific adverts.
Nexus One, does that. It's pricy, but you can even use it as a phone without any monthly bills. Either via pay as you go or using it completely via wifi and VoIP. Or you can ditch the phone component all together and use it as a iPod replacement.
At present we have no evidence that there are any other species anywhere near as advanced as we are. It's kind of irresponsible to let ourselves go like that when we might very well be as good as it gets. Or at least have the potential to turn things around.
That's bullshit. Did the numerous people that died in WWII really make it any quicker? What it did do was provide some stimulus to the efforts, but it also wiped out a lot of people who could've been the one to figure out fusion by now or any number of unimagined future technologies. Not to mention that entire countries are destroyed and the labs, factories and libraries which they contained gone up in smoke.
War is one impetus to evolve technology, but it's hardly the only one. Pure curiosity is one that would as well, just not when people are behaving in such a belligerent, greedy fashion as they do currently.
The difference is that the iPhone isn't anywhere near as dominant as Windows is. The iPhone isn't number one and in recent times has been getting trounced by Android. It's really only a matter of time before developers jump ship for Android, given the plethora of dickish moves that Apple has made against the developers.
Apparently because you're not typing on the computer like a zombie and are talking with other people. Wait, people that are working the next great American novel are probably not talking a lot either.
You're missing the point. The point of a teacher isn't to teach so much as it is to control the flow of knowledge to the students. To make sure that they don't get too much all at once. If you go back as a senior and look at the course work from freshman year, you'd notice that a lot of it is flat out lies. That there's all these little details that they told you one way, but later on they tell you that it really happens differently. The reason for that is that you can't do a depth first doctorate. The foundation work is so interconnected that you have to simplify things so as to get anywhere.
Gates was able to get a substantial loan from his parents as well as introduced to the right people at IBM. Most of us will never have that kind of easy access to connections and money. Gates was a good businessman, but he would never have made it big like he did without access to the things that an upper class upbringing can provide.
It depends a lot on the person. Frequently, "self taught programmer" is code for I don't know how to organize or write tidy code. A good school will endeavor to get the code clean, organized and engineered for easy maintenance. Knowing what to call various patterns is useful for identifying them and talking through problems which may not benefit from directly looking at the code.
They could get sued for sexual abuse? I mean gussy it up however they like, at the end of the day this is viewing people naked without permission, or really over their objections. Were this a more rational area of discussion, we'd all be able to admit that this is sexual abuse, and it's not even grey area either.
Laser hasn't been capitalized in a really long time. Capitalization only applies when it's an acronym and abbreviations, laser on the other hand is a word in its own right.
And yet, all those game companies from the 80s and early 90s didn't go bankrupt immediately. The piracy rates, while incalculable, were without a doubt significantly higher than they are today. As software wasn't at that point considered something you paid for in most cases. Many titles were put out by a very small number of people and required little in the way of resources to produce.
Not suggesting that we should go back to doing things that way, but there are ways of coping with piracy without going under.
Well, Assassin's Creed II suffered because you had to have an internet connection constantly, a surprising number of people either don't want or can't get a stable broadband connection. On top of that the tougher the DRM the larger the number of people that are locked out despite being legitimately interested in playing. Hearing that they couldn't run the game despite having the requirements goes a long way in killing the buzz.
You do realize that at least one of the jurors was a Cisco employee with expertise in networking, right? The jury was hardly a bunch of country bumpkins rounded up because they didn't have a job.

100 man hours? Is that like 9 pregnancy months?
There's other sites that are more legitimate, I think flexjobs is probably one of the more reputable ones.

If they require you to purchase food for a limited amount of time, then it's not free. That's subsidized or possibly included in the purchase price.
Well, perhaps N=H=1?

I predict that protective cup manufacturers will go back to making them the old fashioned way, out of metal.

If I weren't using those drive bays for my radiator, I'd probably use them for hotswap SATA drives. Makes it a bit easier to dual boot and do backups.
Whoops, that should've been CCIE
