You might as well add Flacco to 2008 too. He's doing fairly well starting with the Ravens. -- Delaware alumni

He said planet ... that probably means Mercury now.

How is commercial use defined in terms of the book? It's not that free. Then again, if you use an algorithm for something at work, it does makes sense to reimburse the author. I just thought I should point it out.

If there is a response to the body shop question, rather than just share it with lsc, please post it for all.

At a different previous job, when AT&T and Cingular were merging and TMobile was the other big customer (company provided US GSM services), TMobile had the reputation of being the professional ones. When the carrier I was talking about

I have to recommend not e-filing, if you decide to do this.

alternately, assuming it software, is there anything we can do to help? If not, be sure to share the idea again once it reaches that state.

I have no experience with the foreign branches, but considering how much emphasis is placed on customer service at TMobile USA, it's surprising how badly that was flubbed. TMobile USA pushes that they are competing to be the best service o

I know I need to be more efficient on when I give up on something, even if it's just for the night. Maybe it's due to a shifted schedule and sleep deprivation, but I seem to be having a lot of these this week, where things are a lot clearer

So, at what point are you going to reverse that decision, or what do you think are currently good investments for a retirement beyond 20 years from now? Especially passive management investments?

No one is screwed yet. Odds are, if goofygrin goes (his user name non-withstanding), then so does the company, which benefits no one. However, this ought to be rectified as quickly as possible; as greater time leaves everyone with more to

"Be profitable" Guess that does miss your finer details, but is closer then the orginal.

It does say "In three years from now we have to figure out what the optimum model is." There is a difference between being not profitable, and being optimally profitable. *started with the wrong markup

I agree with the basic idea, but the reality is more complicated. Hiring someone has a lot of tangential factors that will come into play. Most hackers have a personality that tends to be strongly focused at the task at hand, often at the e

True to a point and possibly for the majority of jobs, provided that you aren't trying to bill yourself as a consultant (expert in whatever technology). I'm also assuming that the "average hacker" implies that you are eliminating everyone w

The problem is that you need to find a way to work with these people in the first place. My first two jobs were through random contacts ( a relative and someone I met while swing dancing). The next two were through dedicated recruiters on

Anyone who has ever tried to debug a random piece of software, and guessed wrong about the cause has imagined a pattern that wasn't really there. Especially when you are looking at sporadic concurrency bugs and other psuedo unpredictable i

You probably want to rephrase this as what version control system do you use that we should use. As my other post shows, it's quite possible that people responding will be skewing the data because they only know of these products ... and th

Currently SVN. Previously CVS, ClearCase, and RCS. (Over the past 4 years, in reverse order.) I was trying to encourage the use of SVN and the first place, but did not have the clout and systems access to change it. Between the 4, SVN is

I explained this to my fiancee, who is a counselor with a masters in social work. I don't think it's made a difference, other then allowing me to occasionally quack for a response (to get a laugh) when she's taking to me. She prefers for m

Unfortunately, this tends to be true. It will very be interesting to see how this changes once Verizon opens up their networks to all products that prove their compatibility. Hopefully it will be much better then the locked down equipment

They'd have to treat them the same as oil rigs, at least in theory. Wow, I've never seen a scenario where I pictured google on the same side as oil lobbyists.

I've been wondering about the same thing. How hard would it be to create this group? Practically speaking, how do you sort through the parents? Background checks? Live video feeds? I have some time to worry about this, but I'd be very int

Unless you are trying to get to know your neighbors, it is very easy to not know them. I found that after freshman year of college, you had to make an effort to meet upperclassmen, even those on your floor. They already have friends, and ro

Sorry for your loss too. It's doesn't have to be a counselor, but it can be easier to deal with a professional. I wish I had, because in my situation, I didn't have the right friendships to be able to handle this. So share with friends. I

A startup requires a lot of effort. If he is still excited by the idea and can work on it, then go for it. If he is finding that he is a different person, that's fine too. Everybody responds differently. I know that with the loss of a fa
