I don't like it either, but you did end up posting on a website. I know one of my online handles has (mostly game related) forum posts replicated to forums/aggregates I've never posted to.

Funnily enough, I was punished once in middle school for doing my assignments. After one particular social studies class, in which I had finished all the work, I opened my reading book. In our English class, you read any (approved) book you

I can tell you from experience that small businesses, and to some extent medium businesses, have nowhere near the same problems as what I would traditionally consider enterprises. Being in an office of 200 people versus 1500 people leads to

I'd like to caution you against deciding on Eclipse solely because of online tutorials and Google recommendation. For one, Eclipse is free, so it has a very low barrier to entry. If you were going to start Java tomorrow, I'd tell you to use

Does Google have non-executive jets? I ask because Intel maintains a fleet of planes to ferry normal employees between sites called the Intel Shuttle.

I believe if I were to take this offer, the risk/reward would have to be higher, in addition to knowing about partial bonuses and how pass/fail/partial allocation is figured(discretionary vs calculated). So in this example to take a 20K sal

Feel free to email me questions or whatever about GT. I graduated not too long ago, still have friends who haven't yet graduated, and I won't necessarily give you the politically correct answers they give in the tour.

About the prestige - Why do you think they're considered prestigious? Is it simply word of mouth, or is there something behind it? Not saying you can't find something on the top X list that provides a good learning experience without the pr

Take a look at US World News & Reports and their top 10 list. Any of those would be good choices. There was a syndicated article featured on Yahoo a while back about best value colleges, and Georgia Tech was top value (cost vs avg salar

A lot of jobs have a lot of backstabbing and work politics. It's really about the company you join and its culture, and to some extent the team. ChemE is pretty desirable, either in production plants or R&D. You're not always out in a b

I have a correlation between school [performance] and on-the-job performance. I know you were probably comparing different schools, but within the same school there is definitely a difference. At my co-op job we always pulled from the same

I think it's probably if you go to a top 10 school, you know of the other top 10 schools for your program. As a CompSci undergrad at Georgia Tech I knew of UT, etc. Even if you don't go there for undergrad, there's still a possibility of go

A while back Amazon Local was running refurbished kindles for $20 off. That made the basic kindle $50. I bought one on a whim since I have Prime. Haven't gotten many Prime rentals, but I have read a few other things.

Some people take the perspective that by not speaking out about something, you by implicitly accept how it is, or even embrace it.

My team at large megacorp has 2 Bootstrap designed products, one I created, and one an intern created after I showed him Bootstrap. Everyone thinks it's some of the best design they've seen out of an internal project in a while. None of the

As a sysadmin, I can totally relate to those thoughts. If you run nonstandard, you basically have to learn vim/vi as a default install for an OS and another with all your add-ins and customization. Sure the key bindings are similar, but I d

I thought ammo cost was already going up because of demand. Wouldn't that just transition people to making their own bullets? It's my understanding that it isn't super difficult if you have the tools, and can significantly reduce the cost o

Those are pretty good principles, and I'm not sure that I can add anything that those don't already cover. I personally combine meditation, exercise, and friends by doing martial arts. Overall I think it's one of the better things I've deci

Relevant to the discussion at hand: http://thisisindexed.com/2012/12/somebody-teach-this-kid-to-... I think the age matters to give appropriate advice and direction. With the case of the 14 year old, they don't have the life experiences t

Actually, it's the reverse. If you score well on AP and then elect to take the class, you'll probably get a high grade. However, if you take the class and realize you're in over your head, you damaged your GPA. AP credits didn't count at my

In most instances this is probably true, but I've read of a sales tactic before where you make the customer fill out the order form. I'm guessing it would work better for physical widgets instead of services.

I'd also suggest eating a good breakfast. It helps with energy and concentration, and you don't want to be sitting there going "Man, I'm hungry" in the middle of a section.

Regarding the email - most carriers offer email to SMS gateways. When I travel I always put in (phone number)@txt.att.net or whatever it is to receive "emails" about flight changes.

I can to some extent explain the college process in the US. The first is that grades matter, but only to a point. Colleges have to work with all sorts of crazy grade point systems from all over the world. Not all school districts have the r
