I agree with networking.

And if you send applications, just list accomplishments, not education. If you have to fill out education, just check university, and explain when you meet face to face. It is called initiative. Or get a cheap degree from a non-acredited university, doesn't matter if it is bible studies, knitting or something else. Then you have your checkmark and will continue to round 2.

But I agree that I see more and more programmers, developers (programmers who can think further than copy/paste) seems to be a dying breed.

3G and LTE networks already supports blacklisting IMEI numbers of stolen phones.
Has worked for decades in Western Europe.

In most nations with a high rate of criminals and stolen goods, the telecoms decide to ignore the international IMEI blacklist. So a phone stolen in Western Europe can only be used in Eastern Europe, USA and other 3rd world countries. If the telcos where to shut down stolen phones, they would lose half of their subscribers, the teclos really like the availability of low cost (read stolen) feature and smart phones. They profit at least as much as Apple.

Apple earns around 35% on the sale of an iPhone. The iPhone 5 = $649. Apple profits $227.
If AT&T sells the same phone, they probably buys it around $400, sells it for $199, and loses $200. If a stolen phone is sold to a customer, AT&T does not lose $200, but will get the future income from the phone. Dataplnas and all. It is the telecoms that makes the most profits. They should implement stolen IMEI blocking worldwide. Even in the US.

I also noticed, that it does not seem to work from afar, so for certain not a keyfob hack.

My guess is they use an electromagnetic field in some way to unlock the car. Can they use induction to create the unlock doors signal on the CAN bus ? Or is it shielded enough ? There is holes in the door plate near the (plastic?) handle
Or physically move something in the lock ?

We don't know if they have larger batteries on their body. But certainly not a keyfob attack.

Bug in Hyper-V.
Default for virtual machines is to randomize the MAC addresses at random times.

Not the fault of Ubuntu. You can disable that, but I am surprised default is to do MAC randomization on shutdown/restart or whenever it does it.
Caused problems here with RHEL.

Specialisterne (The danish company who started all this, people with autism as testers) are part of this. They already sell testing services to lots of customers, and are present in many countries. It is all about using the abilities that people have.
Repetitive work is what developers tries to avoid, and what these people love. Perfect fit.
We are just seeing some new articles on this, now that the German revenge for having lost the war (SAP) will also be customers.

Not only that, if he is such a master as he claim to be, he would detect the bugs when things moves along, and there would not be the pile in the end.
IMHO most of the "bugs" are not really bugs, but changes. Customer don't like that button etc. Most often when the product does exactly what is specified, the customer is unhappy. That is what comes from pre-project specifications. Expect 50-100% extra time making things like the customer wants it, rather than what he told you he wanted.

Or change development method. Pragmatic programming / LEAN etc. Have the customer (or yourself if you think you can read the custumers mind) see the intermediate results / the developing prototype, and they can change things as they go along. Total price will probably be cheaper.

Use the big screen as the main screen. If you are a developer, you know how to do that (I have seen many pretenders, claiming tobe, and working as developers, who does not posess basic user skills of their preferred platform, I would even hire them to type in Word).

Then get a stand for the laptop, and use it as a secondary screen to documentation etc.

Install TOR (if not against AUP), and tell them that you do not download crap not worth paying for, but that you are an exit node for TOR. Thustraffic from your IP can be assumed to originate from other computers. Inform FBI about the same thing, such that a judge can never issue a warrant as there is no reasonable suspicion against you. And that if you want to download crap, your traffic will use TOR to originate from another IP.

Use a VPN or virtual server for you criminal activities. You can get $2-$5/mo virtual servers powerfull enough for VPN. You can get them in Europe, Canada, South Africa. You name it, you get it.

But again, the whole idea is to hit the stupid guy with below average IQ and below average income. They are the ones least likely to get a qualified defense.

It is probably just another Android TV stick clone. You can have them for $30-$60 depending on specs.
Got the Mk808, works fine.

Great,
1. Create a website writing bad about yourself
2. Make sure it gets intot he google seach engine
3. tell google to remove
4. Sue google and collect $200.000

With the Mk802 / Mk808 / Ug007 out for $40-$70, we know what cheap is. It has to be way below $99.

Now the police can show the full picture, and what lead up to them having to use force, and not just the edited version making it look like they attack innocents.

GPL is the license of choice for unemployed nerds, or thise who want to make sure the competition can never charge money for it.
BSD style licenses is really the only ones you can safely use if you got a job. No risk that you company has to give its product source code to the competition.

In the rest of the world, justice comes before anything else. No matter how evidence is obtained, it is still evidence, and will be used in court.
In the US, if an unskilled policeman makes a small mistake, all evidence will be thrown down the sink, and the criminals who would be convicted on that evidence in every other country of the world, will walk free. I don't understand this protection of people where there is evidence that they are criminals.

Invest in solar panels, such that you can get free/cheap power for all the gadgets.
Wind power is craap, and create so much noise pollution, that nobody wants to live near it

A fuel cell is another alternative, have not found a price for the Panasic fuel cell yet though. I think it is above your budget.
