Did you have a full-time 40hr/wk job totally outside of CS/IT during the same period that left you with only enough time outside of class to sleep?
Yeah, some of us did. I worked up to 60 hours a week while in school. College is expensive, even with financial aid.
'Why would anyone ever want to view his or her pictures on a TV?'
And yet they still tried selling those stupid PhotoCD players to people.
Microsoft, why don't you just write some QUALITY software for the iPad instead of trying to go head on in competition? That way, the more iPads Apple sells, the more software you sell. It's win-win.
I wonder about this sometimes. I think Microsoft needs to remember it's a software company, not a hardware company. Sell Office, sell Windows, create application software for all platforms. Otherwise you have Zune.
The firm's conclusion was that non-iPad owners THINK iPad owners tend to be wealthy, sophisticated, highly educated and disproportionately interested in business and finance, while they scored terribly in the areas of altruism and kindness.

Pike detailed the shortcomings of such languages as a way of describing the goals that he and other Google engineers have for a new programming language they developed, called Go.

'We don't have sufficiently bright people moving into this field to support those national security objectives as we move forward in time,'
All we have are a bunch of morons here.
If Microsoft did this people would be all over their asses..

Assume $100 motherboard is marked up 70%
4.49% increase in costs
What would the world be like if instead of 70% markup, we increased wages for everyone, keeping a more reasonable profit margin?
Did someone say cheaper phone calls??
Yes, cheaper phone calls are why they're doing this. And with all that extra money you'll save, I have this great bridge in Brooklyn you should really check out.
You think child porn is protected by freedom of expression?
Tell me, whose freedom are you thinking should be protected? The adult or the child? Is it OK if the adult's freedoms infringe on those of the child?
You're protecting the freedom of the poor bastard who downloaded it by mistake and didn't nuke his hard drive from orbit.
