That's kind of the point I was trying to make in the initial post. The first one to two years in engineering schools tend to be very similar across majors. Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics are all required. After about your sophomore year,

You can change degrees fairly easily but, depending on the requirements for your new degree, you may have to fulfill a number of additional requirements. For example, if you are going to a large public university and are in their engineerin

I'm not saying that they are going to create a great OS, but those that know web design and those that build operating systems are often a disjoint set.

It's hardly fair to look back with 30 years of hindsight and say that BASIC was more important to a company than SoftCard. Obviously, we know that now , but that doesn't speak to their specific situation.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't break any laws. You have the right to pay someone to give you a useless piece of paper. As a side note, I thought it was amusing that you mentioned that a "university" would target the uneducated. (Yes, I'm using

Confusingly, there is also a project called "Common Music" which is a algorithmic composition tool that used to use Common Lisp, but now appears to use Scheme. http://commonmusic.sourceforge.net/ I actually took a course in college many y

I just started replaying the Monkey Island games this week after about 15 years since I last played the original. Definitely one of the "best of breed". Sam & Max were enjoyable, as well as the Indiana Jones games, but Monkey Island was

No. Actually, the reverse of that was one of the reasons why the Lisp Machines ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_machine ) ultimately failed (among others): commodity hardware could run Lisp as fast or faster than custom hardware. Nowaday

I believe that it learns from the correct answers. i.e. once the question is complete, it can use the known correct answer in its analysis. But it can't "hear" anything.

The title of this post is inaccurate. The article is discussing how someone (who is not an engineer) provided "engineering-quality work" which could mislead the DOT and the public that it was done by an engineer. If anything, this article i
