You are missing a very critical point: either you need to rent a virtual or real server and spend time configuring and maintaining it - or you could try and dare to run your mail server from at home on some linux box which will open a whole

Up to the point where he reveals that... > And then I'll write exam questions testing on those very same mistakes. If we all did that, the market would dry up pretty quick. ...he actually DOES oppose it obviously and wants to stop it.

> Exams are about testing what the students have learned, not about teaching them Your job as a prof should be teaching them and exams are a part of that - at the same time exams are typically focused on the 2 or 3 major subjects or p

Flame-y tone aside, I cannot help but feel exactly like this: > Zounds, Herr Professor Doktor, you seem to be setting a new level of pettiness and arrogance. You don't seem to object to your getting a doubtless hefty paycheck resting o

I find it sickening and pathetic that things like "tethering" and "making skype/voip calls" are somehow special features that most providers are trying to keep you away from in every way they can... I have this awesome little device that co

In the 90s everyone rushed the IT shares and then the dotcom bubble burst. In the first decade of our new millennium, real estate and all sorts of weird financial products somehow building on real estate were THE best way to invest money be

IMHO privacy should become a human right in these surveillance-ridden times but that was ahead of time - replace with "privacy", if you ask me it was a huge intrusion into the privacy of the users.

Ironically, this was exactly the kind of apologetic but side-stepping rhetorics used by still German president Christian Wulff so I call shenanigans and nothing but modern rhetorics and modern PR-management. This is very alike to catching s

Actually I have to say I am with "mistermann" on this... you make it sound like there is no other way. I can totally accept and understand that it cannot be all that safe to sit you on tons of rocket fuel, fire you into the oxygen-less and

Different teams working on modules is a very different animal than one engineer saying "this item is going to blow up" for years and obviously everyone ignoring him... I find it particularly shocking how your answer suggests a strong "well,

I guess this is also a problem of different goals, according compensation and what you have to pay in case you were wrong... those guys having to push things through and make it happen in time, under budget get paid for just that - and not

Isn't there something about email not being strong evidence in a trial because it is way too easy to fake? At least in Euroland, a lot of things still run on fax for that very reason.

Please excuse my blatantly rude question and over-analyzing from across the pond but... you hired fresh-out-of-college/university hotshots into leading and crucial positions: CEO, CTO, "product guy", co-founders and programmers positions -

I should also mention: consulting can also require (much!) more flexibility and traveling depending on partners and customers and staying in hotels and flying around all the time can get very old very quickly... most of the time you don't r

I listed some quick-shot ideas there, did you see them? Ultimately you will have to see and try for yourself how well they work and what other opportunities are there - scout the terrain yourself. > I care about maximizing my free time

> where we send armies after white collar criminals They sent a POLICE unit after an armed suspect (put such pictures on the web) surrounded by (potentially) armed bodyguards - sounds reasonable to me.

There were weapons on the property and Kim made sure everyone knows that and he had (armed?) bodyguards and was obviously prepared for whatever assault that might occur on his property, hence the "plan" where to take and hide him. Let's jus

I think the only "level" you should really care about and isn't on that list: being fluent enough on all systems, APIs, libraries and infrastructure you are connecting to or using so you ultimately do not really care all that much which lan

You belittle clear advantages simply because they do not fit your taste or style while the usefulness and spreading use of IDEs is unquestionable, so this is too much of a personal preferences discussion than anything else, just like all vi

The most fun I ever had was doing exactly this, piping a stream through ssh, but on the one end was a CD image, on the other end was a cd burner. It is kinda obvious you could also do that because pipes and ssh are ubiquitous on UNIX but I

The point is: these comparisons always try to make vi seem like the always better choice INSTEAD of an IDE and this is were I completely disagree. And you make it look just like that with adjusting the comparison in favor of vi, the screwdr

This started already when they raided the NOC where TPB was running in in 2006... no legal justification under Swedish law but that didn't stop them from seizing all hardware there. Well, I am wondering who paid/bribed for that.

The sad truth is that there are customers doing that on purpose not just to protect their own liquidity and cash flow but they hope that by not paying and making you wait they will literally dry you out into bankruptcy and ultimately they h

Now we just need SOMETHING to identify those Cylon sleepers that are going to blow up the water tanks... On a more serious note, there certainly are regions on EARTH that could dearly use such a filter before we jump on building spacecrafts
