This can't be accurate. My boss at the time had an NT4 server running SQL Server that he left on for a year. It only had SP1 installed. No security updates.
It was kind of a nightmare to patch when we finally did. Did I mention it was the billing database and that was back when we didn't have the PCI compliance standards of today.
You never owned an iomega zip drive then. The NT4 kernel would BSOD constantly with an external parallel version of that. I've experienced a BSOD on every OS through Windows 7. In windows 8, it's now a
Windows tends to crash now due to hardware problems. Most BSODs in NT are from bad hardware or bad drivers.
Look at the massive amount of IPs that Amazon and Microsoft use for their cloud solutions. If AWS actually supported IPv6 properly, people could start migrating. Last I checked, Amazon didn't even offer IPv6 as an option for their DNS services.
ISPs are starting to move on IPv6, and now we need the big hosting companies to step up. Today, that's mostly cloud providers.
QA is another option. I think it's the goto for people that are logical and don't actually enjoy writing software. Instead, they get to try to break it.
You can't make something expensive "free," but you can force people to pay for something they wouldn't voluntarily pay for via taxes.
By taxing goods up front proportionally to their reclamation costs (and the costs of their packaging) we could fund "free" recycling and even encourage manufacturers to adopt more environmentally-friendly designs.
I think the who problem with LAMP or MEAN is that it's trying to define one web stack. The world has moved on. Some companies deploy nginx now instead of apache or in combination with it. Netflix sends 33% of all Internet traffic on FreeBSD rather than Linux. I've seen so many people replace the P in LAMP to be python. We can't even agree on the P.
My current stack at work is FATAPJ - FreeBSD, Apache, Tomcat, AngularJS, PostgreSQL, Java
I wouldn't be surprised if PHP already works this way.
It's believable that someone could get a B+ in an entry level CS class even without a good understanding of arithmetic. Entry level CS is more about understanding flow control and variables than it is about mathematics.
If she got a B+ in Calculus, that would be concerning. And since all university-level CS programs require Calculus, the student in your story likely never graduated... unless this was a for-profit college, perhaps.
Well the bureaucrats who are likely regulating this are probably overworked and understaffed. So it's unlikely they can effectively regulate it.
If they don't have enough people to help, maybe they should consider some H1B's to augment the staff?
No, I'm in agreement with you here. As much as I don't buy from ThinkGeek anymore (unless they have a really, really wantable T-shirt on sale*...because I'm cheap as hell), having something akin to an Amazon Locker is a boon and a win for them.
It's a heck of a smart business strategy and it's going to be interesting (to me at least) to see how successful it is.
*I have a "Fhloston Paradise" t-shirt, and alas, no one ever recognizes the reference. That causes me to be bummed in almost unreasonable amounts.
