I hope that it's not a coincidence. A pretty neat idea was provided for nothing a year ago and has been doing nothing but sitting around in the two of your heads. Danielle brushed the dust off, executed, and shared the results. What did y

Maybe they aren't "better" jobs per-say, but System Administrators, Network Administrators, Security Auditors, Penetration Testers, etc, etc... can all benefit by knowing some basic programming. If you have to do it once, ok, if you might

Maybe it's just the Chicago market, but I can't make a single trip in my car without hearing a Bing radio ad. I'm pretty sure they're laying out a fair amount of marketing cash. As another statistically irrelevant point, my mom who believes

My fiance's brother has done multiple tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan as part of the IED group. From the experiences he's been able to share, "not so hard" could only be written by someone without active duty military experience. I woul

By applying the concepts of the main article to this video I can certainly say that the thought of my day without having seen this video makes me much happier than simply recalling that I have seen it. Thanks!

For C, absolutely K&R. For Asm, I concur with cperciva that the best way to go is to start at 8086 and work your way towards more modern assembly. For 8086 I highly recommend "The 80x86 IBM PC and Compatible Computers (Volumes I & I

Housing costs are not always a necessity. The mean sq. footage of a house in the United State went from 1,655 to 2,215 between 1978 and 2008. Did people develop the necessity for larger and larger houses? Or did they want larger and large

I don't view their plan as pointless at all. Attempting to document an "average" airline passenger is an interesting social exercise I look forward to reading about. I've recently flown to Germany and Japan from the USA and met extraordinar

I was also perplexed by this as several categories didn't seem to fit me at all. I was also shocked by a rather large section marked "illegal". Thanks to a link below from rrival, the philosophy behind the program is a mix of art and soci

I'll second this. I studied karate as a child and it is one of my most cherished memories. In addition to the concepts of self defense and self control, it teaches respect. Respect for yourself and respect for others. I believe respect to

Doctorate is accurate. While PhD is technically a "research doctorate" and MD and JD are "professional doctorates", all three are types of doctorate degrees. PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) MD (Doctor of Medicine) JD (Juris Doctor)

One issue with this is that all of the FBI raids that go well and consist of competent decision making regardless of IT knowledge involvement will never make the news. No one wants to read that a raid went off without a hitch. Or that the f

I'd reckon it has to do with the person's ability to analyze the facts of a situation and apply it to decision making. I wouldn't want a dentist to look at my teeth and incorrectly decide that a root canal should be performed when a more ac

I find myself most enjoying the comedy that points out problems in society that would often be too taboo to talk about if not done in a humorous manner. I'd say that Lewis Black, Lewis C.K., and Jon Stewart all exemplify this quality.

The data is likely limited in scope by more than just income. For instance, its a web-based startup. This means that users of it are more likely to be tech savvy. It also means that the users are younger, which gives the baby boomers a weak

Try asking one of the workers there for a specific book. I was at my local library today (in Chicago, IL, US) looking for a specific book on design patterns. They didn't have it but were able to order it for me. I should be able to pick it
