During her years at CNET News, Ina Fried has changed beats several times, changed genders once, and covered both of the Pirates of Silicon Valley. These days, most of her attention is focused on anus haxing.

"I want to live in America because there are the highest technologies."
For someone who lives in Europe and supposedly works on networks, I'm surprised he thinks US' internetwork infrastructure is better.

Well, I got my first very own computer when I was ~15 and the times have changed significantly since then. Back then it wasn't as easy it is today to learn stuff about computers.

For a half an hour, Marko made a presentation to Potokar and his team about Active Directory and its benefits and challenges.
"It is amazing how much time and energy he dedicated to study this complex and extensive material. On the other hand, I hope that...he still finds time for his second biggest love, which is football."

Really though, some kids will just learn more when they're younger and end up at a similar level to their peers when they reach adulthood.[/masked butthurt]

I don't get it…he's already 9 and he can`t even program assembly? He just runs active directory and clicks buttons or something?

There are MS "Engineers" and there are people that actually design systems i.e.: real engineers that have taken a year of Diff Eq. after having taken Calc 1,2, and 3, and statics and dynamics and labs and...

Oh shit, don't remind me about dynamics, I was planning to be an ME until I took that class. Switched to EE right after.

It's odd and surprises most people I know that I won't have to take Diff Eq to get a CS degree. I just had to sit through the horrors (HORRORS!) of Linear Algebra.
