I’d be pretty tempted to legislate that the two types of institutions be prohibited from having any commercial relationship as well. There cannot be any incentive to grant degrees that aren’t earned.

I envisage the examination process being very thorough, with a combination of practical tests, in person cross-examination by a team of interviewers, essays, etc. MIT could absolutely ask you any sort of question they would expect you to kn

The point of an undergraduate university degree is to represent to others that the holder has some level of knowledge and skill in a particular subject. The value to the student is as a key to further opportunities: academic, social, commer

I think practicing design is difficult because of one major issue: how will you know if you got it right? I think the only way is to actually implement the design, and learn what works and what doesn't (and, crucially, why). It's

Please, just no. The C committee should do basically nothing. If someone, somewhere, finds an actual bug in the spec, then fine -- fix that. But don't go adding new features. If you want something new, then make a new language. Leave

Compare the price of the Librem 5 (1299) vs. the Librem 5 USA (1999). The former is assembled in China, the latter in the US.

Australian law requires that Apple enable a "backdoor" when issued a Technical Capability Notice. I don't know one has been issued. But Apple still sells devices in Australia, so I'm assuming it has complied when it was

I'd really like my car to automatically limit itself to a bit under the legal limit. As it is, I find maintaining 40km/hr difficult, so I tend to engage the cruise control. But that's pretty painful. I'd much rather it

I ordered the Mark II via the original Kickstarter campaign, somewhere back in the mists of time. To be fair, they've communicated fairly well recently. There were periods when things went too quiet, but in the last year or so we&#x27

I've used both a local IP law firm, and Iron Mountain. The local law firm kinda surprised me that they did it, but it was very convenient for us, and cheap. As we started selling to bigger companies, we found they were less comfortable

I guess it would depend on the size of the sale. My former company sold on-premises enterprise software. Sales were usually a monthly fee in the $10k+ range. Our company started quite small: 4 people, and in Australia but selling into the

This is a very standard thing to (a) do, and (b) be demanded in a contract. It's not zero effort, but it's not that hard. There's plenty of firms provide the service. Every time my former company shipped a release, we'd

My child recently learned this in school, in first grade. I just assume everyone knows it. There's an English jingle that I was taught (1970s), and my child also: Thirty days hath September, April, June and November. All the r

Thank you. I guess that makes complete sense. To me, giving your children a second language is an incredible gift. Setting the pathways in the brain that separate concepts from the written and spoken representation, the abstractions of di

Disclaimer: I have no inside knowledge. I _suspect_ it's two things: Firstly, as you suggest, is a lack of economies of scale, startup expenses, high R&D costs, etc. Existing car companies can do a lot of the EV manufacturing with

Did you talk to your existing investors? They should have a useful perspective on your options. They invested 5 years ago. That means by the time you run out of cash, they're 6 years in. Most VC funds have a 7 year life, so unless y

Time in the workforce doesn't indicate competence, but time at known employers can (since we're talking seniors here). When you're hiring, you should know where you want to hire people from. Normally, you'll know someon

Respectfully, I think that's nonsense. It's called "work" because it's what you do to get money. It's not a hobby, nor an idealistic crusade (both of those are fine things, but they're different to "

Second the network thing. I've done two interviews in the last 25 years. Mostly it's a 30 minute call or coffee with the group leader just to make them feel ok about the decision they've already made to hire you. Same when

The work to have the type system do stuff for you doesn't happen for free. You need to define a whole bunch of scaffolding to support the application functionality. Sure, once it's set up, using it can be pretty painless, but th

Different tasks, different languages. I'm happy to use Python for a lot of stuff. I also use C or C++ for a lot of stuff. It's usually pretty obvious what the right choice is. Using a more dynamic language for larger projects ta
