You're welcome. You earned it.

Considering this is my first professional certification, I don't know if I can aptly answer that. I can tell you this:

• SANS certifications are notorious for being difficult.
• SANS Certifications are well-known in the industry. These are not some fly-by-night "let's give certs away" things.
• They certainly are not inexpensive. This certification costs something in the neighborhood of $4,000 to take. The first exam attempt is around $600. If you fail and need to try again, it will cost you around $300 or so.
• The certification is good for four years.

So... I'm actually pleased at having passed this. :)

She's not smart, she's a dipshit AW. And also, not gorgeous. 6/10 maybe, but not gorgeous.

Try leaving your mom's basement some time.

Other than a desire to run the x86 version of Doom on your BeagleBoard, why would you need this when software is just a recompile away?

Bring back Scotti. Also, Tori sucked. Grant and Scotti are all you need. Tori is a tool, good for comic relief when you need a doofus to eat a chili pepper, and Kari was just T&A.

And my problem with that is they they must know that they're underskilled hacks. And they sit there, smirk and headwobble, and then claim you didn't provide Requirements or Do The Needful, and YOUR ass gets chewed out when they fail.

At which point I go elsewhere. Just because there's content out there doesn't mean its valuable. Most of the Internet is crap.

China has a growing middle class, and a growing class of perpetually single men. They need to stop the middle class from becoming so affluent so quickly (where do you park 400 million cars?), and they need to find jobs for the millions of sad horny guys who could easily become revolutionaries. If the cost of food rises a few percent here and there it bleeds excess capital out of the system, inconveniences a few on the long tail, but as a whole (remember, China thinks long-term, and like a single organism) the economy will be better off.

Also the pre-emptible kernel, but it's the same basic type of kernel improvement - creating a more fluid experience for the GUI user.

Who swaps anymore? This isn't WindowsNT or Solaris.

Thats the least of the worries people in Coachella have. It was a nice desert area and now it's turning into a smoggy, trafficky shithole due to farms, feedlots and Starbucks.

Every app seems to want access to your full memory, location info, camera, microphone and contact list. Why does a flashlight app need all this?

I carry a phone because I have to for work, and I need something to read while on the crapper, and that's it. People who use all these fancy apps are the product, not the customer.
