Property managers usually get roughly 10% of the rental income and handle paperwork, screening renters, phone calls, minor repairs, etc. You still have to pay for major repairs (new fridge, AC, burst pipe), but depending on your situation,

I had the same symptoms, started exercising my hands and within two weeks, no problems at all. I highly recommend this approach.

And that's OK. The high-level OOP stuff is there if you need/want it, but unlike Java, no one is trying to force that mindset down your throat. There is nothing wrong with C-like C++ code. Nothing at all.

Yep. The 'Internets' are full of back-seat economists that never took an intro to Econ course while in college. Heck, most never took any college course, yet they know it all and then some. Keep singing the same song and sooner or later y

TCHunt is a free program that finds (for the most part) TrueCrypt volumes. (Modulo 512, chi-square stream analysis, etc). The scary thing is that it's not 100% positive as it cannot differentiate between random data and AES data, but in gen

I don't know Mr. Stroustrup, but I have exchanged emails with him. He's always very pleasant and professional in the emails (even when dealing with a nobody such as me). Just like in this interview... I believe he's a genuinely nice guy. Pe

The pre-order for Windows 7 Home Premium (where we normal folks could purchase it for 50 bucks) has ended. But it was a very good deal as that price is less than half of retail. http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/buy/offers/pre-order-ended..

It's hard to put email and blog posts into human context. What seems abrasive in text only mediums, may not even seem remotely abrasive in real life where we can see body language, facial expressions, etc. Even text as straight forward as "

I agree with this statement. Other schools (perhaps not as highly regarded as the ones you mentioned) such as Texas A&M do hardcore, low-level C++ courses, compiler stuff, etc. for both CS and CE students as core requirements. They ligh

We can't generalize. Not all students are like the ones described in this article. I work with CS and CE graduate students 40 hours a week. I help them conduct research. The best of these students have an eagerness and desire to learn. They

That's a feature, not a bug. Code you write in C++ today will probably compile and run 30 to 50 years from now with very little (if any) modification. Same is true for C. These are serious languages used on major projects (Joint Strike Figh

Read their tweets... "With 1 machine down (fan) still getting 428435640 hashes per second thanks to Dan's cool fast code." It would seem that DJB wrote some code for their cluster that was on par with GPU speeds.

10 is a huge stretch. My testing in C++ agrees with you. The lowest score I've gotten is 41 after about 12 hours. Sure, I may get lucky and get one in the high 30's or something, but it would just be blind luck and persistence, nothing mo

I did. Just like I pre-order every OpenBSD release. Windows 7 pre-order is a good value and buying now will give you the most bang for your buck over its lifetime.

I Love Python and would use it more if it were easier to build stand-alone, compiled native apps from it (I used Python many years before the phrase 'Web 2.0' came about). I use pyinstaller right now and have use py2exe in the past to build

Learning C++ made me a better programmer overall. I suggest "Accelerated C++". It is the one book I most enjoyed. It gets you up and running with the STL quickly. I also like Bjarne Stroustrup reference books. C++ is my favorite language ne

The Hurd kernel is used today. I know! When I worked for the NSA, all of our Cray supercomputers ran it. It can divide by zero and that is how we cracked passwords, AES 256, etc. It's a wonderful, albeit hippie-liberal kernel.
