As a former mainframe person, I likely have to object. At least on traditional mainframes you get a message with a searchable message identifier. That message covers users, administrators and others. You might also get a return and reason code if it aborts abnormally.

They try to help the user. I suggest finding a better error comparison.

That was a wise move.

I fell for the belief that people who went to a top 15 school average, in 2009, 130k+ USD in salary. My advice is to only go if your company pays--even for Wharton. They're all bullshit. Well there is some educational value, but not as much as they charge.

I can't vouch for your network, but I built my own and earned millions. But absolutely no Duke mba helped even one penny.

If you're considering an MBA, get a job requiring that degree along with a license. For ex. a medical degree. Totally different, but at least you'll have far less competition when you graduate. And the government blocks your foreign competitors.

I agree. I fit this settlement except that I was able to refi part of my loans against my house. After 10 years of payments, I owed more than I borrowed from SM. My bankruptcy atty refused to even consider an adversarial proceeding.

Oh, my degree was not underwater basketweaving or gender studies like RINO "republicans" like to say. I was an MBA from Duke. In my 45+ years of existence, that was the worst thing I ever did. Had I slept with 1000s of people and contracted every STD, that degree would still be a horrible thing. I tried to get the next wrung in the IT ladder, but NO ONE CARED.

Separately, whatever happened to AC posting?

This would be a valid argument if the dollar was backed by any real asset. However, it hasn't been since the early 70's. In the early days of the republic citizens could pay their taxes in tobacco because that had real value. These days the US government owes far more than they could ever collect from its tax cattle (even if you took all of the assets of the wealthiest 1%). The dollar is only worth something because people still buy oil with it. Also, most international transactions are done in USD.
