no GPS in the boonies?

This to me is no different than plagiarism. All Pharrell and Thicke had to do was give credit where credit was due, pay a little royalty and they would have been able to avoid all this nonsense. Instead they say give the credit to a Vicodin and alcohol high.

I don't see why there's so much hate and jealousy regarding this issue. If the company wants to spend their money on these initiatives, then that's their prerogative. The first thing people comment about every time this issue comes up is "reverse sexism" or the plethora of free information online. Does anyone ever consider how role models come into play? How many amazing female coders out there compared to men? Very few. People gravitate towards role models that inspire them as a child and I'm sure one of the inspirational factors is whether or not that role model looks like you. These programs make up for that by creating a safe and encouraging environment for them to learn about this field. If a girl takes a class and hates it and never wants to do it again. That's fine. At least she was given that opportunity. Why is this a problem?

jailbreak your device and change the hosts file to block all ad sites. I copied this hosts file for my mac and my phone http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/ho... Doing this will block many of the ads in all the apps as well. =)

Thanks for letting us know how we should think.

People pay to use the internet but that money doesn't go towards the creation of sites. That money goes straight to the ISP. As much as I hate it, some sites rely on ad-revenue to exist. So that $230 is for those sites to stay alive.

You obviously have no problem with this being a sausage party.

rapid development of what? websites? mobile? prototyping? try meteorjs if you want to do something in websites.

the swiss aren't as neutral as they seem.

even with ideas there is a survival of the fittest. young ideas aren't going to just be blatantly accepted. they must be challenged and also challenge what has been established. if they are as strong and as brilliant as they seem, they'll come out on top. also just thinking creativity means nothing, you have to execute creatively. sometimes that means playing your boss' ego against them to get the idea made. a person that can do that is seriously creative.

I fail to understand how anyone could live in downtown san francisco on $35K for 11 months. Additionally are they doing some type of student loan forgiveness for participating in this program? Why would any programmer want to do this?

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/11/atandt-iphone-4-vs-verizon-iphone-4-whats-changed/ this link shows a side by side comparison between the ATT and Verizon iPhone. The hotspot/tethering will require $50 and that gets you unlimited data for the phone and 2Gb for the tethered device.

Press freedom day? What a sham. The US lost freedom of the press when corporations took over the news papers.

I guess that clit that IBM used to put in the middle of their keyboards was soooo much better.
