I forget my Red Hat 5.2 installation (relative latecomer) and haven't looked back since and still continue with Fedora and unable to get past the Red Hat way. I remember learning the fundamentals of computers from the ground up as it should be... However, Linux was more profound in my life since it enabled this Political Science/History to have a career. A lot of employers were impressed with the fact that I knew Linux well because when you learn this sublime OS, you learn a lot more like Apache, Mysql and more importantly the Open Source community. It can be said that next to my son's birth the Linux installation is the most important moment of my life...

From the report "Expert panel members stated that actions to increase the number of professionals with adequate cybersecurity skills should include (1) enhancing existing scholarship programs (e.g., Scholarship for Service) and (2) making the cybersecurity discipline a profession through testing and licensing." Recommendation 2 is really worrying since this will add to the increasing nonsensical lineup of licensing joining the usual culprits like CISSP, CISA and "fill your certification of choice"here

I love this nonsense peddled by Mickeysoft about the apple tax. Guess what, I am quite happy to pay the apple tax (which doesnt exist) for a stable, well designed product with a sublime operating system. Indeed, what is more delicious is the nix under the hood of Mac OS X and I can run just about everything I run on the best OS in the world -- Linux (Sorry, Mac fans). What Mickeysoft fails to understand (maybe its cognitive dissonance) is: You always pay a premium for quality. And for once Dvorak is right, improve your products and stop spending money trying to look cool. Indeed, as the redhead says on the ad, she is not cool for a MAC, guess what she isn't and if the other denizens wish to shell out money for HP's and Vaio's, please go ahead. I will sit back and sleep well when all the viruses, the unexplained crashes and other droppings show up on your machines "A little learning is a dangerous thing; drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring: there shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, and drinking largely sobers us again."
