Is shader programming going to exist in a world of Cuda and openCL? Honest question, I'm more from the number crunching side of image processing than games/scene generation - so does GLSL offer anything you can't do in…
After someone was stabbed and kille don a Greyhound in canada there was a call for airport style screening of passengers. Given that most greyhound stops in Canada are REALLY in the middle of nowhere this looked like it…
Sound of a large number of corporates banning Android phones. So if CarrierIQ claim you have agreed to this - then any consequences of it's use must be your fault. If you are a doctor (subject to HIPAA) could you lose…
Since it's a thermal printer they aren't going to make very much selling ink. Although - since HP make more and more profit by selling smaller and smaller ink cartridges - I suppose they could make an infinite profit on…
Yes but it's VIII better
ARM is a company, they have shareholders, the shareholders are really-really happy when ARM get money. Making the compiler free doesn't affect the licensees like Samsung, and the people that develop on ARM (iPhone or…
Coding - the new maths! Students are dropping IT in schools - good. Not taking IT at college probably also good. IT in schools has (and always will be) crap. The problem is that nobody has any idea what to teach. When…

Invest in roads - presumably for cars powered by oil to drive on? Now that's a long term vision of the future!
Unless you gave the immigrants with STEM PhDs greencards. It just seems odd that a Yankee going to Texas is welcome but a foreigner taking the same job, paying the same US tax - but who was raised and educated at some…
In every other country there is a central government who have a department of immigration who accept applications from outsiders and judge them on their experience, qualifications, education etc. You should try having a…

Yes - especially for the big name firms in the US
And it's even worse than that - 20/30 years ago most of those none law/medicine degrees would have got somebody a VP type job. Now a non-professional degree gets you an entry level secretary job. If you compare the…
