Locamama, Can you actually fail a personality test? wow, that is a great one! Of course if your applying for certain jobs, I could understand it, but I would also want to know up front what was being considered on a personality test and why it *might* disqualify me and if so, then perhaps I would not have wanted that job anyhow. Of course isn't the interview itself sort of a test to determine if your personality fits in with who y

I know there are not a lot of Game Devs on here and most are probably from Stardock, but what do you use for Software Requirements Development? My company, Link , which I am newly (4 months ago) switched over to work as a Software Engineer doesn't quite have an explicit method by which Software Requirements are done. Yes, we do th

So the underhanded Bank of America just decided to jack me around and up my interest rate to 24.99% from something like 14% and I was a pretty good customer for a year.

Saft, which is a French company will be supplying Lion Batteries to BAE Systems, which is one the biggest Miliatry Contractors out there to the US.

Well, I wish I got the pay that went with being a rock star! It is one of the reasons I joined Cobasys back in 2001 (at the time Ovonic Battery Company). It was to work with new technology and be part of something that can help humanity as a whole. I could also at the time, honestly say I was one of probably less than 1000 people in the world working on t

With the debate for Governor of Michigan last night, this morning's news article highlighting a new Hybrid Energy Development center in Troy, MI will really help Granholm out. As one of the few American owned, operated and manufactured in the good ole US of A, Cobasys stands out as an achievement in Michigan. I joined the Ovonic Battery Company, when there

This comment from an email list I am on intrigued me: I would highly recommend "Broadsword and Singlestick" to anyone with an interest in the gentlemanly arts of self defence as they were practiced during the late Victorian era.

When I say a Screencast, vlogging, vidcast, I am refering to the use of a RSS feed to produce a podcast using video. I have been bouncing around a LOT lately about doing some sort of Screencast of some sort related to my daily job functions. As such, this Linux Blog has a bit about video recording on Ubuntu and there are comments on the variety of wa

Well, not only do they waste time and tax payer dollars writing legislation that sucks, but then we have to pay again. The state of Illinois passed a law related to video games and when it is declared unconstitutional, the tax payers (State of Illinois) then has to pay for the legal fees associated with combatting this stupid unconstitutional law.
