It's set up as an external system anyway. You'd have to do extra work to hack it in. Otherwise, that is true.

It all depends on what your goal is. In health care applications? In financial applications? I would never trust anything less than fully acid with all the bells and whistles. In a website where people aren't going to be that bothered of a

I agree. However, it's more difficult to find gigs that are looking for consistent 20 hours a week, especially contracting for larger companies. If this is untrue, would you mind sharing your secrets for finding them?

First thought: your aunt is trolling you. Second (and more serious) thought: This speaks to the fear our elders have with computers. Many of us used this to help ourselves through college as technical repair, and Best Buy has done a good jo

The problem with this question is that there is a significant gap between pay rates for part time and full time work. I am a contract worker for a big company right now. They expect me to work 40 hours or more a week. If I could convert thi

Amazon is losing a lot of business in the GLBT community, historically a reliable demographic group in both online spending and books. (This actually wouldn't be so bad if they had been more forthcoming, and quickly made a statement apologi

Tying yourself to a warlord to whom you have just given a very unequal advantage is exactly the thing that can keep you alive in a circumstance such as this. Further, nothing wrong with "inventing" the assembly line. With this kind of overp

I had older classmates. I can't remember ever thinking of them as "losers." They were usually more interesting than the younger set. No, you won't end up in a fraternity. However, there are a surprising number of people who end up in school

There are too many places that standardized their web apps on IE6 bugs to do that.

HL7... what a nightmare! I remember having to work with it, and it was a convoluted solution where every provider and vendor had a different interpretation. As bad as 2.3.1 is, it's still worlds better than 3. The best thing that can happen

Ipod Touch without the music built in... even better! Actually, I'd prefer this to a netbook, especially if it isn't locked down.

The only concern I have is the privacy implications. Knowing your caretaker is reading your email could be detrimental in many cases.

I don't know... I watch my Ph.D candidate boyfriend (in a non-science discipline, mind you) and it's close minus the coming in to the office bit. More time on facebook, less time on tetris. Update for 2009 as necessary.

The healthier TV dinners come pretty close. Vitamin fortified cereal in the morning, tv dinners for lunch and dinner, and vegetables for snacks.

I've thought about the same thing myself. (I'll make do with the 24 inch monitors, though. :) I'm surprised the Mac Pro doesn't have a way to dock the air yet, though. There are a lot of usability pieces to think about. Do you really want p

I don't know - AT&T dropping calls and the virtual keyboard being a pain in the ass are legitimate gripes. I haven't moved from an iPod touch because of that.

Wait... you know PHP? Why not just use PHP? Really, it may not be popular with the HN crowd, but use what gets the job done. Have confidence in yourself, and get a prototype done. That will give you the experience you need.

The debt doesn't exist -- my parents paid up front from savings bonds they had been buying for a decade precisely for my education. Between 97 and 2001, my education costed approximately 2000 dollars for the community college portion, and 1

I always wondered if I did the right thing by accepting my parents offer to pay for college if I stayed at the home school. (I started at a community college, and transfered to a local university.) Then, I looked at the fact that I was a co

Write paper 1.0. Then work on 1.1. Then, instead of having one paper, you have two, and are that much closer to tenure. :)
