Man, and all this time I thought it was because of their smaller brains. OK, just kidding. This sounds like it could apply to any science or math related major, not just computer science. Also, it seems to basically say that people feel unf

I don't really see what the big deal is. Isn't this how most species have come about over time? I guess this is an artificially created scenario somewhat, but I'm sure there are plenty of species that have come about due to humans importing

I wonder where lines are drawn in regards to spam when it comes to net neutrality. I remember listening to an owner of a local ISP talk about how how spam could easily overrun their capacity to serve paying customers if they couldn't contro

Stack Overflow rep is already used to determine when a user can do things like edit questions or moderate - why not use that to determine who might be a "serious" candidate? Just like you have metrics that must be met to moderate questions,

That is a pretty sweet library. I could totally see myself doing something like that someday - mostly because I love to hoard things I find interesting. Some of those items are extremely unique or rare though and it does make me wonder how

This is a good approach. I do wonder how much of it translates over (from junk mail to a website or email) but that's something that can be tested. At the very least it provides a good starting foundation to work off of for those unsure of

Yeah I was about to write about this. Those consoles were sold at a loss because they could make up the difference and then some on game sales (through licensing or however that works). The qestion then becomes how would Google monetize the

Wow this person sounds really bitter. 99designs, Logoworks, etc - they are what they are. No need to get all elitist and snooty about it. Some people aren't looking for the whole package - some people can't AFFORD the whole package. Why loo

While this might work for H1B visa applicants who would probably be able to secure above average paying jobs, I think you'll be hard pressed to find undocumented immigrants who can afford a house at all much less one that costs 10% more tha

I'm going to do some more indepth research when I get home. I've read plenty of articles by people with PhDs in areas that focused particularly on things like how exercise and diet affects the body. From what I've read there is evidence to

That's cool that you guys were able to work it out. There seems to be an increasing number of checks that a name has to pass to be "valid". Can you get the domain? Can you get the twitter account? Can you get the facebook account? Depending

What kind of app is this? Web/desktop? Are you saying you basically need an smtp server to send emails through? How many emails are you trying to send in, say, a day or an hour?

This is kind of a lame article although the topic itself is a bit interesting. I am actually paid hourly - as a full time developer (not a consultant). It was nice when we were being asked to work late as we at least were being paid for out

Yeah, I do feel a little bad for saying it - and I'm not even 100% sure I agree with it, but it was my first thought upon reading the suggestion. It's not so much that I think other people are idiots as much as I realize how much stuff is o

Not a bad little article, although the fact that it is 8 years old should make anyone who would find it useful question how much of this is still completely accurate. On an somewhat related note, I really hate it when programming articles d

Or perhaps we could just think of it as a first level filter. OK, there's no way to not sound elitist saying this, but if people can't figure out that it shouldn't have a www in front of it, how much are they really going to learn from the

I imagine most people on these forums are interested in starting a company regardless of healthcare issues. Personally, as I'm a little older and have a family to consider it's a little more of an issue but even then I feel like I can work

I wonder why they weren't able to implement increasing levels of difficulty. They could have mechanically changed the playing field at certain thresholds, or even looked into using different sorts of balls (heavier, smaller, BOTH AT THE SAM

At first I really thoguht this article was written in one language and translated to English, or written by an application. Actually, after having finished it, I'm still not sure. As for the merits of the article - meh - it seems to mostly
