Not anymore, the US Supreme Court struck down the 1992 law prohibiting sports betting at a federal level [1]
Now, it’s up to each state to decide if and how they want to legalize it. New Jersey is actually the reason this went to the Supreme Court, and you can now take wagers within NJ if you have a physical operation in Atlantic City [2]
Taylor Swift is by far the most influential person in the music industry right now. Ignoring her when trying to launch a new music service in this competitive market would have disastrous results, even for Apple
Game Maker is the best way to go at that age. I used it when I was younger and the drag and drop functionality was great. As I grew older and started learning to code, the editor let me easily start writing scripts and such to give me more control over the gameplay
That might be a core problem right there. There's no developer influence in product meetings? While on the business end there might be a need for a feature, business people are not going to understanding what complexities are involved in a particular feature. What you might think takes a day could take 3 weeks. On the other hand, you may be passing over useful features you think are complex but only take a day. If you trust your developers with as much as you say you do, they should have a voice in your meetings. That may be a way to retain this lead developers interest
I was involved with theater when I was younger, and would always read the script 50-60 times outside of rehersal. Halfway through a 4 month production, I would not only know my lines, but they would come to me naturally, leading me to interact as if I was that character.
The book I've probably read the most is One of the Eragon books.... last count I was at 24 read through. I really love that book. You do notice something different every time
2009, I was a freshman comp sci major at a startup trying to get experience. I wrote some SQL and VB.NET code for a proof of concept web service. Turned out someone sold it and some major companies are using it today....
I also wonder what the percentage of graduates they have after the four years. I'm sure a lot of people see the draw of a fun career and money, but don't know how difficult the degree is.
I've been wondering about this for a while. For my thesis project in college, my class created a web app for a school for the blind and visually impaired. We were greenhorns when it came to creating a production ready system, but we were able to meet the standards for usability by implementing them while the project was going, not as an after thought.
I wish I had thought of this when I was trying to develop a WoW Addon. I was building an advanced party gui and wanted to communicate the whereabouts of each user, but was stmyed about how to send information between each instance
I don't think that's weird. We have an open office setup where I work and everyone bounces ideas off each other in the open room environment, and comments on conversations that they have valuable input on. We also have empty offices all around that anyone can go sit in to do work when they want. I find myself doing about 80% in the open office and 20% in the private one
This article really hits the nail on the head. my first job out of college I was working for a big firm where I was bored. I kept getting told I was an exceptional engineer and was on a fast track for becoming a senior engineer. I was barely twenty two. I moved to a new job six months later where I was constantly challenged and learning new things and I couldn't have been happier.
This is a bug specific to android devices that is caused when the camera is used. Skype accesses the camera often so it can cause the bug to appear more, it's not Skype itself causing the issue
If they want to make a donation to the city with a stipulation that it goes towards a new officer being hired that's fine. It becomes unsettling if they begin being able to dictate what that public official is supposed to do
Try and find something she's interested in. I was this way all throughout high school because nothing ever interested. When I got to college and started studying CS though, I was extremely interested and always wanted to know how things worked, I still knew most of the answers without trying, but I would dig in to see why the answer worked. This saved me my Junior year when we started getting into complex concept that I couldn't just "figure out".
Having something of interest (to the person) to study will almost always lead to better study habits.
