It may sound naive, but the way to stop a lot of this is through social and foreign policy. Treating the symptoms will always play second fiddle to tackling the cause. I have a … Re: Islamic State, encryption and the Western response 9 Years Ago by Warrens80 They won't do anything, they will click away at a empty monitor, raid a few empty warehouses and then say they can't do anything more because they don't have enough funds. @ diafol- I have the same sinking feeling and strongly believe that that what's going on. The more fear that they create of terrorist attacks the more funds they will be able to… Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by |-|x Let me preface this by saying; who wouldn't want to work at Google? Though its been a while since I was an undergrad, I find it interesting that so few had inspiration to travel or work abroad. This was always a goal for me, and part of what influenced my career choice. Technology is one of the most portable careers, and in high demand most places… Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by devil jin Hi man...i am a IT graduate also in the Philippines..yeah your right i think most of the IT people here in our country has a desire to work in Google...Is it Possible?haha and Thanks SPAM DELETED Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by Sky Diploma I remember the time 3 years ago where in I was facing the option of choosing what is a secure skill set (Accounting) in India or doing a degree in Computer Science (Undergraduate). With the recession coming in and some IT companies going into Severe losses. It took a while for me to figure it out. But at the end I have decided to go in and follow… Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by abigel02 hello...i think most of the IT students wants to be experts in IT sector...and they try to achieve it by updating ourself with enhanced knowledge in this field... Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by sphe_g I agree with Sky Diploma on the Geographic Diversity part. South Africa does have an IT industry, but the allure of working abroad is strong. It's also great to see what's out there, particularly IT business hubs such as Silicon Valley. No doubt, I wanna be able to use my experiences to give back to my country one day, possibly starting a business… Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by PrimeOutsourcin IT graduates are getting in demand. We need fresh grads to keep in touch with the new trends in technology. Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by shilpa02 They want a good and competable job.. Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by Mepooooo Off,almost every answer is ''I want to work for Google''. Re: What do IT students really want? 11 Years Ago by Seten The percentage is not really a factor of how good the IT is. IT has only one disadvantage. After some time in the field, the person cannot stay ahead with the new technology. Sadly the way how fast the IT change, the only option for me(30 year old) is to get into IT leadership position, to lead young generation of active IT people in some company. … Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by Learner010 does 'homosexual activity' still prohibited in UK ? i think being a gay isn't a crime . That's my personal opinion. Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by happygeek No, homosexual activity is not still prohibited by law in the UK... Was that really a serious question, by the way? Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by Learner010 > Was that really a serious question i read about homosexual relationship and found that still there are some countries which are against of it. that's why i asked for UK. you can read articles about homosexuality in india. just google it. Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by happygeek Sadly true, there are still countries where sexuality can be a crime. I just assumed most people realised that the UK was no longer on that list of shame... Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by ddanbe It was probably due to his conviction he finally killed himself. I sometimes wonder with what mathematical marvels he would have come up with, if he could have lived longer. I read "The annotated Turing" by Charles Petzold, telling some history and explaining his famous paper on computability. With some explanations by Petzold this paper … Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by happygeek Agreed, I was pondering just what he may have achieved if he had lived a full life. Computing may not have been different, but I suspect we may have got where we are a lot quicker. Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by AtLeastI'mTryin While I think gays are missing out (tho' the other option is always a challenge), their personal choices are theirs alone. I admire this man for what he did professionally (nice Wikipedia link). Shame on England for taking so long to correct the grave injustice they were responsible for. Thanks for sharing!!! Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by humorousone It's a pity we don't hold this guy as a national treasure. He's one of the fundamental creators of modern computing, and yet we can't even seem to properly fund the museum that was created in memorial of him. Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by iamthwee Interesting article. Anyone who loves programming will appreciate this guy's work and the term 'turing complete' comes from this guy. Reading about how those Enigma machines used to work to roll out/crack codes was fascinating. In regards, to his sexuality... Yeah, pretty much in everyday life we don't pay much attention or concern to such … Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by Reverend Jim If you get the chance, a very detailed an interesting book by Jack Copeland is "Colossus: The Secrets Of Bletchley Park's Code-Breaking Computers" Re: Alan Turing, father of computer science, finally gets royal pardon 10 Years Ago by rory.starkweather.7 Turing was a great man, and who knows what he would have accomplished with more time. That said, even today people who don't have the politically correct sexual orientation are considered security risks. The problem is that there is still a stigma attached to homosexuality. This makes homosexuals more vulnerable to various kinds of blackmail. …
