Degree Requirements Absurd?
Like, many older folks in this business, I started out in the field without a degree in computer science (in fact, I started with only a tech school diploma). I went on to earn a BSCS, but now find myself needing to either earn a masters degree or get out! What I truly find amazing is that most computer work does not require college-level training in computer science. For example, have you ever used simple theory like "Big 'O'" or "DeMorgan's Theorem" in solving a problem only ...

Career Advice for a High School Student down in the South
I am a current high school senior who is graduating early and I would like to ask for advice for somebody that is in the field of EE. I have a 4.0 gpa in high school ,and obviously I love math, computers, and even computer programming. What's even better is the fact that I actually understand Calculus, C++, Java ,and Physics. I despise the idea of going to Georgia Tech only to screw up my gpa. So I have decided to goto a Southern Polytechnic State University. They offer electr...

Cell phone service ?
My two-year contract with Cingular/AT&T finally ran up two weeks ago, and, naturally, my cell phone died today. I'm ready to move to another service. Anybody got T-Mobile? If so, how do you like it, and how is the coverage?I have T-mobile and it suits its purpose for me. The phone was free and I only pay $20 a month for a certain plan. I only really use it for emergencies and only have it turned on during long car rides, an hour or more. I have never been cut off. The signal loca...

Milwaukee School of Engineering Exhibit
Milwaukee School of Engineering Exhibit: See http://www.msoe.edu/library/dr_who/.I gotta say: I went to see this "exhibit." In fact, I made a special trip, driving up from Chicago. The thought was marvelous, but I think low expectations could make the difference between enjoying the display and wanting, or expecting, something more. Essentially, the link above shows everything. There's nothing more to see, and it's a rather unimpressive display. In fact, I walked back and fo...

Software (hardware?) for switchboard operator
We are a medium sized company planning to replace our telephony infrastructure and to use VoIP technology. But we want to keep the workplaces for the switchboard operators as they are today. That means we will not use IVR and ACD firstly and we don't want a huge callcenter solution. We want to have 4 or 5 operators receiving and forwarding calls. We are evaluating the Cisco VoIP solution, but we miss the "switchboard" part. The WebAttendant functionality is not good enough.you may w...

Searching by phone number in address book ?
I use my phone in my home based business. I try to log the calls, but my phone bill shows those I forgot. To include them as a business expense, I'd like to search by phone number in my address book to verify who we called.That works (very quickly) on a one-by-one basis: enter a phone number, get the contact. If you'd rather have your whole address book sorted by phone number so you can just check the list for all of these numbers, you could get my Sort by Field script at the sam...

% of people paying income tax in India
% of people paying income tax in India-It is indeed true that the percentage of people paying income tax in India is miniscule. Less than 1% sounds like its on the mark, although I am not conversant with the most recent statistics. Not only is agriculture off bounds but plenty of...

Aerospace Engineering rankings by Students Review
Everybody either loves or hate college rankings. Some like me can't do with them as a guide for comparing colleges. I went to the http://www.studentsreview.com/ website and feeling bored, happened to stumble upon its SR Rankins facility. I selected 'Program/Education Quality' as the Dynamic Ranking factor and 'Aerospace Engineering' as an Additional Optional Ranking Restriction, without selecting any other variable. Lo and behold! The list below was obtained. To my great joy...

phone number decoding/monitoring ?
Im interested in telephone monitoring equipment, to be used with scanners. Need to try and decode phone numbers, and monitor telephone calls. My current equipment only monitors analogue signals, any suggestions appreciated. This is for legitimate investigation work.At what point do you intend intercepting the calls? Between the 'phone and the handset? From a mobile 'phone mast? The latter isn't possible as the whole thing is multiplexed, digitised and then encrypted. Some a...

Using home equity loan to refinance mortgage
I've sent in the application, so I suppose I'll hear what they have to say. It seems like a great idea because they claim there are no fees. I assume though that the interest rate will be a bit higher. And if I pay off the mortgage I'll probably be responsible for paying my own taxes and insurance; I'm not sure if the home equity would have a escrow or not. I'm wonder what would happen if I missed a payment or two. Could my house be reposed faster under a home equity loan than a conv...
