the thought of wasting two more years, getting left in the dust, and becoming irrelevant has me horrified.
Get a junior / intern position doing the work you want while you finish school. That way you get some money (hopefully), keep your skills fresh and gain work experience. Then when you graduate in a few years you have a degree and some experience, you can go for more mid-level positions.

Unfortunately we're stuck using IE7 corporate wide. Looks like productivity is about to go up around here
Unfortunately we're forced to use IE7 at work. The only way to make the new site readable is to add the site to 'Restricted Sites', so that the JS etc does not work. Then it's even uglier, but readable
1. User selects a row to edit. Application pulls all the columns for that row and stores them into the users session.
2. User makes modifications to some fields and submits back to the server.
3. Server issues an UPDATE statement and includes all the original column values in the WHERE clause to only update the record if nobody else has modified it since we started.
SELECT id, color, name, description FROM vehicle WHERE id = '100'
id = 100
color = 'red'
name = 'kia'
description = 'cheap'
User changes the color to 'blue' and saves changes, the app might do something like:
UPDATE vehicle SET color='blue' WHERE id=100 AND color='red' AND name='kia' AND description='cheap'
If anyone else modified a field in the row the update would fail and you can handle it however you like.
Many people found Google's search site was extremely slow or inaccessible... Two network routes involving NTT, a Japanese telecommunications giant, are showing significant packet loss on connections to Qwest and Verizon.
General network issues or is something sinister taking away the Google?
