I thought this was an interesting article. It discusses the decline in computer science enrollments. Also, be sure to check out the discussion that follows the article over at builder.com.

The best advice I could give you is to go to monster.com, dice.com, and hotjobs.com, and search for "Qt" or "Qt programming." Also, if you haven't check out...

First, let me say that every here answer might be biased because it's a computer forum. Yes, even mine. ;) Have you posted in a math forum?I know successful people in the computer world, some are...

Ooh, bad move. Well, you're still young, so you'll learn. Never ever send out documents like these unless you're absolutely sure it's perfect, or as good as it can be. By that I mean that it has been...

Final Year Project? If so, tell us your major or what your skills are so we know what to recommend.

Well, it's not really a rule, but a lot of viruses are spread through Word macros. Anywho here's what I think you should change/take out:

Personal Information: Take out everything in the personal...

Perhaps you can save it to HTML or take a screenshot of it, save it as an image, and put it on a web page. I have a rule against downloading word files off the net unless I know the site very well....

PHP has a nice set of string/file functions you can use. Of course, I'd recommend Perl beforehand, but PHP is easier and I believe has a bigger community than Perl. Are you looking to develop a web...

Dani and I were talking about a contest a while ago. It's ultimately up to Dani, since she provides the prize. Maybe we'll have a contest that doesn't entail graphic design, because it's unfair for...

This isn't really a computer problem, just something strange that happened. A while back, when the power went out for a few days on the northern east coast, the power went out at the same exact time...

Yes, very old! Almost two years have passed, and I hate computer science even more. Die computer science, die!

I think you should stick with CS. Too many people have a CIS degree. Why? Well, one of the reasons is just like you said:


Sure, CIS might be easier, and you'll feel better because you'll do...

I agree with Arizona Web. I suggest you make a portfolio. Learn what technologies are hot in the IT world and make applications based on them. This is how I learned. Also, your degree will help out a...

Absolutely no one. :cool: Any book on web usability will tell you this. The only thing people look for at the bottom of each page is copyright information. I don't think people would expect staff...

This would be good material for the Careers Forum. Off it goes.

We can add virtual milk and virtual chocolate cake to the list. Anyways, good job caperjack!

Your IT classes sound more like my computer science classes. IT schools have programs that teach technical support/networking, which seems to be what you want. If all you're doing is programming,...

Yes, unfortunately ColdFusion does not seem to be popular in this community. I'm very disappointed because it's my favorite web language! Doh! Anyways, as far as a Delphi forum, I actually think it...

I'm curious to know what else Microsoft will do if they know you're using a pirated copy. It have to be millions of people running illegal versions, so I'm sure they won't track them down. Anyone...

You were joking right?
[/quote]Nope. Prove me wrong. I'm 101% confident that if we took a wordly poll, they would agree with me. You might throw every reason in the world at me why you disagree, but...

I'm glad you noticed that too. I'm never surprised how much you can get a person to do something for you by making it appear that they're greater than you.

I agree with you here. Personally, I think their decisions arise from ego. Simple as that. I also go to quite a few seminars and shows (IBM, Macromedia, and Microsoft), and if some ignorant person...

Yeah, the ignorant people tend to confuse Linux advocacy with Microsoft Bashing. Not just that, but apparently if you use anything from Microsoft, you're a drooling idiot. I don't even try to argue...

You don't need to. They know it already. Probably know more about it than you.

Again, there's no need to. They know why.

So if they know why, why do they stoop down to such ignorant...

Encouragement I don't mind. When someone forces you to use something and tells you that you're an idiot if you don't, especially a professor, it's when it becomes annoying. I've learned to move on,...

Good post, but their pro-linux/open source ways don't bother me. It's their attitude towards people that disagree with them that drives me crazy. They are attitudes that you usually find at the...

See if these two sites grab you: http://www.2advanced.com and http://www.estudio.com

I retook that exam three times. It was hard.

Congratulations, although I think not enough people voted. :(

Have you used the banner for anything? I don't see the winner's banner anywhere.

Here's my submission. I know it ended but what the heck...

It is something to brag about. Not anyone can pass it. I hear people brag about how easy it is all the time yet they're not even certified in it. You would think, that they brag about it, that they'd...

No problem. Whatever you do with an IP address though, make sure you know who you're doing it to. There are people who know their system inside out and keep track of people who try to access their...

During the years of Windows 95 and old versions of Linux, it used to be easy to crack. Any script kiddie could easily exploit their security flaws. Now it's tougher. A lot of those cracking progs no...

I think most certs can be earned by reading books than taking a class. Of course college diplomas can only be earned by going to college. Doh. I don't think colleges that offer online classes have...

I have a Macromedia certification in ColdFusion, and in May I'll have a bachelors in computer science and two minors: Psychology and Business Computer Information Systems.

In the future I plan...

Whoa, J☼E, you play D2 LoD? Since when? I used to be addicted to that game? How serious do you play it?

Personally, I get my desktops from deviantart.com. Free too.

There are different aspects to consider when asking this question. From a server point of view? From a usability point of view? Price? Difficulty? There is no winner if you simply say "Windows vs...

He really aught to fight this. $10 is an insult. Even $1000 is nothing to that company. He could really give Microsoft bad publicity if he tried. Seeing this as a risk, only then would Microsoft come...
