I have to disagree; a specific course like Full Sail or Digipen will give you access to non-academic resources, like game companies recruiting, alum connections, and developer connections that you may not normally have in a regular CS or CSE course.

Really? I would be very hard-pressed to name even one person that I personally know who has never downloaded a movie, a song, or a game that they did not buy.

It's more like a real world situation if you use O-I-V-A-I-Z-M-I-R to get bonds and a military installation...

"eventually" -- that's the problem.

I wear glasses and have a cochlear implant, so I've been mechanically enhanced. Does that make me a cyborg, or are those two enhancements too ordinary? What about a pacemaker?

And this is why tech types always complain about their managers -- none of their own are getting the training they need to rise up and manage. Frankly, tech types cast such a stigma on management that the number of people who actually want to do that is very small, which is a major mistake.

It's worth noting that it says "three-hour exams," and nothing else. There are other courses that could have other kinds of finals -- for example, engineering courses with comprehensive final projects or liberal arts courses with final papers/presentations and the like. In some ways, it makes more sense for students to work on a final project that utilizes the skills they're supposed to have learned in real-world situations -- especially for engineers.

Yes, they never fought well at all... Chloe Grace-Moretz's few months at a circus school and martial arts training easily trumps Ray Park's decades of kung fu and wushu experience.

Algebra and trig, okay -- calculus? Integrals? I don't know what school you went to, but I haven't seen a public school that teaches that stuff earlier than, say, AP Calculus, which is usually a 12th-grade course.

It says "in Japan." The thing is that, in Japan, the driver is always, irrevocably, 100% in the wrong for hitting a pedestrian; this may be one reason why Toyota is offering the option.

The way I see it is that "reboot" and "restart" are pretty much synonymous, so outside of the computer context, people say that they're "rebooting" a show or series. The difference in that area, for me, is that "restarting" implies that there's some kind of continuity -- for example, the modern Doctor Who show builds off of the old one and shares continuity. A "reboot," on the other hand, is a ground-up revamping. It still probably annoys you though.

Yeah, I live here, in Japan. That's why I'd like to see America held to higher standards.

My problem with trains in American isn't speed.

I'd rather have a train system that had a range of trains to different places at lots of different times, every day. But most importantly, I'd like to have a train system that actually follows the time table. Nobody wants to pay for public transportation when you have to arrive early, wait a long time, and then not leave on time... and probably not arrive at your destination on time.

Wait, we do that for airplanes. Nevermind. Go about your business.

Rather than putting the module on a boom, I'd just put jets on the module and spin it up. You wouldn't need constant thrust, but on the down side, it wouldn't be able to put the module on the asteroid proper and you'd have to spin down for docking maneuvers.

It seems to me like you're defining "the box" incorrectly... not knowing what things are called doesn't define "the box" -- to me, it just makes communication more difficult. You end up saying things like "the thing with the thing that does the thing and acts like this..." while someone else who knew the name would just say "oh, the X sort" and everyone else nods in agreement. Communication is more efficient when everyone has a common vocabulary. Imagine trying to talk programming in C with someone who didn't know what different variables were called and instead just said "oh, the thing that just holds one character, but we can make it an array for this..."
