Right? I was in school just as things were becoming more digitized, but we had to flip through books to see class descriptions or wait until the day we registered to get any idea of a description. Sometimes that info was pretty far off or n

I agree. That's the take the author decided to use when naming the article.

I actually don't feel sorry for the student. I wish I'd had a professor smack some sense into me earlier. For me, it took a tough supervisor a few years out of school to get the message through. The sad part is that I had it together better

This is exactly what Mike Alfred of BrightScope tells entrepreneurs, particularly the young ones just going through school and figuring out where they want to be in the scope of things. Until reading this, I'd hardly heard anyone speak out

My best memories of Roger Ebert were at the Conference on World Affairs at an event called Cinema Interruptus. The CWA lasted five days and was open to the public. Every single day of the conference, there was a Cinema Interruptus session.

Wow. The comments on this are more interesting than the article itself.

I think you're going to hear "bad" things about pretty much any language if you investigate it far enough. What do you mean you've been "learning" to code? (Your use of quotation marks is curious.)

I think that one of the lines between "great" and "good" shows is the writers' and producers' ability to let the viewer draw his/her own conclusion. There are good shows out there with good plots and good acting, but what holds a lot of tho

Thanks for sharing. This was a good read and I think a lot more people could use to read it instead of just blindly commenting with rude remarks...

I can understand that in some Nordic countries where there is a little more civic involvement and participation in government all around. They have a multi-party system and the population trusts the government a lot more - not because they

So wait, couples are 'forced' to live together? You would think a couple would like each other to some extent, and in a lot of cases enough to gladly live together.

I don't mean this in an insensitive way, but I started feeling itchy just reading this. Yikes.

Not very confident that they will find success in purchasing a controlling stake of Dailymotion. Unless they want to get in the businesses of spreading NSFW content like crazy. And if not, then I guess they're willing to kill off Dailymotio

It's not that Minnesota is boring. It's that a lot of people think it is. Have you ever lived in California? I'm from Colorado. A lot of people I know in California think of the rest of the US aside from New York as boring. There is a reaso

Some amazing artists come from boring places. There are great rockers from places nobody would remotely associate with great music (Bob Dylan and Prince are both from Minnesota, for instance).
