None of those companies are paying recent grads 200K. Even their more senior folks (non-partners) will not be making the big money. The guys with the experience and the credentials will be making 200K+ but they will be with small boutique consulting firms.

Very Very few folks who are not consultants will be making that kind of money. Companies will bring in the expertise when they need it but won't pay an employee that well.

I know this because I've been doing IAM/Security consulting for over 20 years. I know what I have to pay for talented resources.

You as an individual may directly consume less but the cost to support the infrastructure and logistics of major urban centers is very high. As an example, think of the costs involved in building and maintaining the sewer and storm drain network.

If you have the private key, packet sniffing works fine.

Your being a complete moron..
These iPads are managed completely by AA. They do NOT connect to the app store. The OS, the apps, and the data come from AA servers. Any forced updates or DRM are managed by AA.

Yes...

First, he never said he hated anyone much less all of them. Second, how is it irrational to dislike, even hate, someone who continues to advocate the slaughter or subjugation of you and your society?

The statistics are for "overall: driver deaths per million registered vehicle years" so the relative popularity of the vehicles is accounted for in the numbers.

You can have an SUV that handles great if thats what you want. I'd bet my GL550 can beat your normal car around most any course.

"Fast"? I'll wager my full size SUV, a Mercedes GL550, is faster than most anything other than an all-out sports car. So I can do 0-60 in 6 seconds and I have outstanding four wheel drive if I need it.

So my Mercedes GL550 is not an SUV? It is every bit as large as the Tahoe/Suburban/Expedition and can tow 7500 pounds. It shares no platform components with any car. The high end has gone unibody. Even Cadillac is looking to move that way with their new models.

Bzzt! Wrong. Many of the vehicles that anyone looking at them would classify as full size SUVs use unibody construction, especially at the higher end. Mercedes, Lexus, Infinity, Audi, etc are all unibody. Even Cadillac is looking to move their full size SUV to unibody. All of these seat 7+ and tow 7000+ pounds.

As for safety, there are only nine vehicles that have 0 driver fatalities in accidents from 2009 to 2012. Six of them are SUVs! None of them are hybrids or economy models.

The U2 shot down over the Soviet Union had "chipped" communications gear? Now your in fantasy land. The U2 at that time barely had a radio! What it did have contained 0 chips.

If you need LDAP to scale then look to eDirectory or even RHDS.

They can call all they want but most companies do not provide references beyond , "yes, he worked here from a to b". Many do not provide any information at all as there is no upside for them doing so and plenty of possible downside.

I sure wish one of you anonymous cowards could share these tricks with my accountant. I pay him a lot to minimize my tax liability and I still pay a ton.
