I couldn't agree with you more. the key here is whether people KNOW about it or not. If a home user called their monitor their cpu it's not a big deal. If the guy selling the computer called the monitor a cpu, you'd never buy anything from him. It's a credibility question.
I'd love to help. I assume you've got a SCSI adapter with onboard DDR in the IMAC all-in-one right?
I know it's bitchy, but it's THERE!!!
No I'm pretty sure you were right to call them gears, since you were describing the ratio of two sprockets connected via chain. Now, if we could just get you to call them stabilizers instead of training wheels!
Thought you might want to know, you're not the only one. I'm a bit older now (30, not 25), and did about the same. I went to two years of college, but didn't complete even an associates. Basically I went long enough to meet someone who could get me a job coding. From there a string of code->network->code->code jobs for eight years. The only real difference is, I built my family first. It might slow the career down a little, but it's well worth it.
If you want to do well as a developer, be the most kick ass coder you ca, and be nice to non-coders. Everything else will sort of work itself out.
He didn't say demon, he said daemon. You know, a small service that runs in the background? Although I'm puzzled as to why the poster might think that having daemons would make someone want to commit suicide. Perhaps a memory leak in one was causing little room for other things in his life? Maybe a UI nagging daemon was constantly at the front of his mind, and he couldn't concentrate on anything else?
I love the analogy of the human brain vs. the computer system. Daemons to demons etc.
On a more serious note though, I'm glad that thus far
Yeah. This is very telling about his fiance. Wait it IS a HIS fiance and not a HER fiance right?
Wow! I think you managed to capture all the talking points in one post! Kudos to you!
I've never had an SSD, and had a very bad experience with a first gen one.
How does that work?
So this story is interesting:
1. Scientists create mutants
2. Mutants die
3. Scientists are happy about their discovery.
What about this is NEWs?
And the proper response to this is to taser her.
I think you mean to tase her. When you say taser her it makes me think you're going to throw it at her or something.
So remember. If you're made of meat, taste great and we'll ensure your species never dies off!
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that what the human race in general does is wrong. Christian, Athiest, Muslim, Christian Scientists, and everyone else too.
Writers shouldn't code. Coders shouldn't write.
OUCH!!!!!
There's no -1 for "I don't get it."
Telling people "If you don't understand please don't mod me down" in a somewhat snarky way
Just so you know, I modded you down because you whine about mods in your sig.
Didn't understand the comment, and decided to mod down anyway.
Post 1 was moded down and Post 2 explains that the reason is (basically) he didn't understand that Poster 1 doesn't like to be moded down for people not understanding!!!
IT'S AN IRONIC ENDLESS LOOP!!!!
That does not compute.
