I'd be curious to see the real numbers: Again, Microsoft refuses to provide numbers but vaguely claims “our trade-in program for MacBooks was our best ever.” If you go from 5 trade ins to 7, you can site your best year ever. It doesn&

You can as a private doctor carry insurance (at least as far as I have been told). Insurance either way is extremely expensive, because it's so easy to lose a case. The problem is that the law is very complicated when it comes to mal

Really? You know what I expected on the keyboard? The escape key, but clearly Apple didn't have a problem with violating that expectation.

What's interesting about MS too, is that depending on what you do, the production versions still aren't that much money. If you do any sort of commercial software development, MS will pretty much give you a bunch of free software

This maybe true, but it is a sign to the rest of the world that type of behavior is not acceptable. This act may not change Iran, but it may well help change many other places.

I have found this to be true. All my developers can at least program some F#. Some are better than others, but all can do it. Before I started, no one on the team knew F# and were a little hesitant to use it. Even the majority of the in

I think your first action should be to seek some medical advice to make sure that nothing is wrong. Go to a doctor that you trust and review what you've told us with that person. He may be able to help you more than any of us here.

I could be totally wrong, but if I had to guess, they are using it to show off / validate their work on Microsoft Cognitive Services (Project Oxford). It has facial recognition, along with a number of other things, and so this would be

I think you're absolutely right. What I find really funny about this, at least in software development, is the "adoption" of the "agile" process they want to strive for which puts the majority of authority into the

Faster in what? They both compile to IL code, and there execution speed is relatively the same, C# has it beat on somethings F# wins in others. Development wise, once you get used to it, I find it much faster. I have to write less code,

It depends on the state. Most companies have a 'trial period' where the manager doesn't have to go through the full HR process to remove someone. It's pretty much a 'you're an employee, but not really an empl

This is most likely true, and I believe that this is the reason you see MS trying to migrate to being an online provider and moving the .NET framework (and SQL Server for that matter) to work on other platforms.

We did this too. We tested our DR plan at least once every year (this included busing people to a different location, timed responses etc.), and we were considered a non essential part of the bank. We also had to make sure that all our se

I will make the opposite statement about telecommuting. I have a rule that my team must telecommute. Everyone on the team with few exceptions must telecommute at least one day a week. Here's why. We have the technology for people t

If you think you are wasting your time, you need to leave. Three years is a long time to spend on something where you see little benefit. The question you have to ask yourself is: "What are you going to do with your degree after you

I have to disagree with this. Most IT jobs in the U.S. aren't 9-5. Every place I've interviewed have always hinted at the fact that it's not a 40 hour a week job. This may sound jaded, but companies really do expect to get

Simply put, it's time to leave. Either your attitude towards the organization is bad, or the organization itself cannot take criticism. If it's the organization, then there is nothing that can be done and you should immediately

Boot camps have their place, but they are not a replacement for a traditional CS degree. I have met good and bad programmers from both types of programs (some from well respected colleges who I still wonder how they exactly passed), but he

If that's the case, I really feel bad for the person with the last name: ServeAsATerribleExampleForOthers. Talk about being born into the wrong family.

It all depends. A number of colleges will let things slide in high school if the student shows promise. It's not uncommon for intelligent kids to be rebellious in high school from boredom etc., and so a number of colleges will take a

When you are the “Uke” you are taught not to give feedback to your partner. This is wrong. Both sides constantly learn from each other. Even the true Shihan learn from their senior students. Don't get me wrong the students are never

What I think fails to grasp is that this is correct but only to a point. Sure someone can learn to code without doing math, but as things scale, this becomes really important. How do you calculate distance between two points? Math. How do
