To make things easier, you could leverage Google Calendar and schedule the reminders. The 'reminder' part will be then taken care for you.

ok don't shoot me...python. I'm alright with low level stuff but I want to pick up Python so I can roll out prototypes after prototypes to run on Google App Engine. That and Python is SO full featured. Libraries for everything from statisti

The prize is a symbol that, like it or not, sets precedent for the recipient's future behavior because this person sets the precedent for the everyday man. Especially with the peace prize. Secondly, hes a leader. Not only that, hes a liked

Obama should have addressed that. Then he would actually have lived up to that Nobel Peace Prize he got

No. Knowing C# is enough for this job; SQL would be good, and Photoshop is a bonus Employers post everything they use hoping that someone will match at least half of them. Most full timers aren`t even experts in all the technologies. Don't

I had one like that, not with Google though. Started off with "say your index.html is 500GB..." and a whole bunch of other exaggerations. I ended up designing a web server all the way down to the TCP/IP layer. Of course, they stopped me and

So you are donating to the artists? Why do I need an intermediary for that? Maybe an 'art' tax which gets distributed amongst artists proportional to how popular (number of people downloading/listening) they are on the net? Kinda like docto

Then kill the GPA. Most grad schools (far as I know) and virtually every corporation give GPA about 50% of the weight. Then undergrad doesn't matter.

Theres probably more to it than just that. Given Google's history, I have to account for other factors - maybe these are temporary employees being hired to a special program (as in a remedial or 'second chance' program). Or maybe this is Go

Right. Its a very interesting technical project but I`m at a loss for who your customers would be. I suppose the same people that use BOINC...? Because most companies that would need that level of power already have the infrastructure (then
