I'm glad we have colleges to guard this secret knowledge. Otherwise somebody might write books about data structures, and then POOR PEOPLE might read them.

Why do you assume that because you need to utilize a giant institution and multitudes of teachers, everyone else does too? Find me something you learned in college that isn't in a publicly available book. Hell, find me something you learned in college that isn't on goddamn Wikipedia.

"I want the BS/BA because it shows me you can complete something and can deal with crap you don't like because I'm paying you to do it."

Funny... I dropped out of college because I was paying THEM to allow me to complete their bullshit busywork. What kind of college grads are you hiring that were paid to go to college? And what kind of shop are you running where you assign unnecessary crap?

Strange. You'd think that if this knowledge was so important then it wouldn't be locked away exclusively in college libraries.

I mean, just imagine a world where you could transmit information easily and freely. I envision a future where I'd be able to use some sort of computing machine to retrieve copies of the same books used in formal education. Poor old me probably wouldn't be able to understand it, though... not without a strict schedule and several instructors, anyways. I mean, who would be able to do such a thing?

I guess it's for the best that nobody will ever be able to attain knowledge outside of college. It's just such a shame that I'll never be able to access any kind of information on Computer Science theory, ever.

And then 20 or so years after passing him on the pay-scale, he just might make up for those years of negative income!

I hope you're getting someone two edit that thesis. I saw a few to many mistakes in your post too assume that it's readable.

Really? The people who needed to pay vast sums of money to a large institution in order to know the same things as the kids who played on the computer too much are the ones keeping up with the learning on their own? I call bullshit.

Trumpet! Concert!

I play it daily. Don't be bitter that you didn't get a key :)

$300? Shit. I actually gave my friend invite to a friend :(

usage Although transitive sense 2 of flaunt undoubtedly arose from confusion with flout, the contexts in which it appears cannot be called substandard . If you use it, however, you should be aware that many people will consider it a mistake.

It has to do with the way they copy your stem cells, I believe. Every copy raises the risk of an error in the DNA being made into a new stem cell. I don't know how it would increase the cancer rate more than if you just waited for the stem cells to grow on their own, but that's the argument I've heard.

Holy shit, buddha posts on slashdot.

Fuck off. You're no more enlightened than a hippy on 12 hits of acid.

Yeah I mean what the hell are we gonna do if we end up with two universes? This one sucks enough as it is. If you're creating new universes clean this one up first plzkthx.

Because Nokia makes standalone GPS devices, that was the current topic of conversation, you didn't explicitly mention their phones (only the company), and I can't read minds... exactly?

If you think being unable to read minds is convenient you have a strange thought process indeed.
