Comment Horribly misleading title (Score 1) 518

Seriously, guys. This is getting ridiculous. You don't need to start frothing at the mouth about how horribly Blizzard is molesting its customers every time they ban a couple of cheaters. Remember this? http://games.slashdot.org/story/12/06/12/2017259/diablo-3-banhammer-dropped-just-before-rmah-goes-live?sdsrc=popbyskidbtmprev Why do these articles make it to the front pages so quickly? Other topics take a couple days, if not a week, to make up front. As it stands, this post was duct-taped together with biased and incorrect information, and so we're left with a slanderous title that isn't anywhere close to being true.

Submission + - Ask Slashdot: What to do with a Math Degree? 6

badmojo17 writes: After achieving her lifelong dream of becoming a public school math teacher, my wife has found the profession to be much more frustrating than she ever expected. She could deal with having a group of disrespectful criminals as students if she had competent administrators supporting her, but the sad truth is that her administration causes more problems on a daily basis than her students do. Our question is this: what other professions are open to a bright young woman with a bachelor's degree in math and a master's degree in education? Without further education, what types of positions or companies might be interested in her as an employee?

Given how close our senses of taste and smell are, a taste-o-vision wouldn't be much of an upgrade. You're dead on with the Food Network, though. Imagine how much this would grow their audience. Instead of being told how great food tastes, you could get a great approximation by being given the smell. Texture is important, too, but this would be fantastic for the network.
