Didn't work :p
But seriously...C64...seeing the cracked games...
Impressed by the whole demo scene and intro messages...
hex editors...decompilers....

It's probably fairly easy to predict usage. They've been doing it for ages with the electricity power grid.
But what will happen when a singularity arises?

There was a girl in our first year of CS who was a very hard worker, but just couldn't handle the advanced math.
She switched to med school after she flunked and passed with flying colors.

It really depends on what you take as basis for a 'tough' curriculum.
Med school and veterinary school may require you to work 'harder'. But with CS and Math, if you don't get it, you just don't get it. No matter how hard you work.
I wouldn't be able to do Med school though, I faint at the sight of a needle ;-)

Can we use Monte-Carlo or you'd rather see infinite series?

I started programming at the age of 8.

10 PRINT "1337", , ,, , , ,
20 GOTO 10

That was basically it for the next 8 years ;-)

> I really enjoyed my Web development class

In your first your of CS? really?
I had the following courses in my first year of CS: differential and integral calculus, Linear Algebra and geometry, Higher Algebra, Algorithms and Data Structures, Logic and Formal Methods, Interpretation and Structure of Computer Programs, Information Systems.
Web Development class....Nope...doesn't ring a bell.

Says the company who sued for breaching their obvious "one-click patent".
We can also trust them to correct benefits to employees in their distribution centers, right?

The article says that RightsCorp sends settlements for 20$ a title.
So, it's not like they will sue you for thousands if you happen to download the latest GoT episode.
Although I don't concur with their process (sneak their way into getting personal info by avoiding courts), at least they are asking for a 'reasonable settlement'.

You think they are arrogant because their discussions are public. It's all happening on public boards and mailing lists.
Microsoft's internal kitchen is private, so you won't hear their developers speaking out publicly as often.

That's exactly the excuse they use when they appoint cushy top public administration jobs to members of the current ministers cabinet in Belgium. "Well hey, they happen to have the credentials, know the business and have the network!".

There are gameplay youtube clips as well.

He can claim anything North of the North Pole :-)

The brilliance of government systems:

"Hey we wrote a web application the whole country uses to submit their taxes"
"Hey, any script kiddy in the world can hack it using a well known exploit and thousands of proof of concept scripts found online"

Looks like they already had Powerpoint in '81, judging from the schema-art in the advertisements :-)

Seriously? How is that even statistically significant?
