  1. TPS Reports on No Americans Need Apply · · Score: 2, Funny

    However, the SEI is introducing Team Process Software (TPS), which brings traceability of specific code modules to individual programmers, said Humphrey, a former IBM software engineering executive. Indian software companies and a few U.S. developers, notably Microsoft Corp., are aggressively implementing TPS.

    The guys at Microsoft better make sure they put a cover on those TPS reports!

  2. Don't give the company an ultimatum on Executing a Mass Departmental Exodus in the Workplace? · · Score: 1

    You should talk to your management first about how you feel you are being treated. But above all else don't say that if they don't give you what you want that you'll leave, unless you are really willing to. After you make an ultimatum like that, the company will see you as being totally unloyal. They may give you what you requested, but they will be looking for ways to get rid of you.

  3. Cool but.... on Games Controlled By An Exercise Bike · · Score: 1

    This is a very cool idea, but it would probably get old pretty quickly. Then it would become like most every other piece of exercise equipment... a place to hang clothes off of.

  4. From a Female Computer Engineering Student on Girls not Going into CS · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm currently a senior computer engineering student and will be graduating in May. My major is best described as half electrical engineering and half computer science. It is true that in my school's computer science department that there is many more males than females. In a course of approximately 35 people there are usually four or five females other than myself.

    However, CS is in much better shape than computer engineering in this respect. In my electrical classes there have been many times I have been either the only female or one of two females in the class.

    Why is this? I really have no idea. Personally have been interested in computers and their design for a long time. It seems that most females are no so interested in the design process. The only engineering major that actually has close to 50/50 male/female ratio is chemical. And for anybody that says that the girls have a good shot and finding dates if they are in CS or CPE all I have to say is the odds may be good, but the goods are odd.

  5. Hmmm... on Beware of Fake Monkey Automatons · · Score: 1

    Can someone tell me how this fits under the catagory of toys?
