Heck, if we advertise for a Unix C++ programmer, I think half the resumes we get don't even show C++.

I had a college roommate that went through this. After a week of Ensure and blended stuff, he gave up and mostly lived on milkshakes and beer.

Shoemoney had a great post about how blogs and small businesses should be using Amazon Wish Lists to let people with the money be able to pay more than a couple bucks in a "tip jar". http://www.shoemoney.com/2008/12/23/income-from-donation

But did they get paid by Apple yet? Cashflow is king and depending on one customer or partner for the majority of income doesn't make for a healthy company.

Same for me. I can handle some Pink Floyd and other really familiar music, but mostly it's Apocalyptica (metal on chellos) or soundtracks. I recently started listening to the Lord of the Rings soundtracks, but the track where the orcs are s

I can imagine that he'd have some ugly things to say about the lectures being available only in Windows Media Player format.

I have the same problem. I have almost 100 gigs of photos which are the majority of my backup needs. Flickr's been an somewhat easy way to back them up and share them at the same time. But I have growing frustration with Flickr because I'm

I like dropbox a lot, but have two problems. The major one is that their price point just seems too high. $99 a year just isn't a price that I'm willing to pay without seriously considering the value I'm getting. (Then when I consider the v

The article linked is from the authors of Made to Stick. They have an updated edition out. I'm guessing it won't have a section on Dominos Pizza or Susan Boyle though.

Because Oracle and HP are already tight partners and analysts refer to them as essentially one entity against IBM. Plenty of people expect the Sun hardware line to die or get sold to HP, while Oracle keeps the software line. http://h71028

I'm always amazed by what lengths random people will go to hack software. Half my developers don't even understand SQL injection attacks. There's not one of them that really understands buffer overflows. So what chance do I have of getting

I've seen people get great-looking logo designs for $300 using http://99designs.com I'm sure it pisses off $5000/logo designers as much as iStockphoto pisses off people that used to make a good living from stock photography, but welcome t

I couldn't follow that part of the document, but it sounded like he accessed the email account of his roommate (or someone else). That can be held to be illegal. In fact, if they can claim a $5,000 damage amount, it's a federal crime. As fo

Well, if the bank robbers had left a note with their name and address on it, they would have been justified. D-bag kid's forged emails were traced back to his IP address, which then led to his SMB name and MAC address. It'll be hard to get
