2/12 Most people in the industry are content at the fact that they are
1)in a prestigious corporation 2)pays well 3) good benefits.
How PATHETIC.
\_ pathetic attempt @@ flame bait (though I guess that means I
fell for it)
\_ beats working for a lowly company that pays terribly with no
benefits.
\_ You're right. We should strike for daily blow jobs.
\_ If they hire outside people, yes. I wouldn't want a blowjob
from anyone that works at my company.
\_ I'll join the bait eaters: Uhm, gee, I think you just posted 3 of
the 4 reasons for working anywhere. You had some other reason one
might work in industry that you think isn't pathetic? Or you'd
only have respect if _everyone_ went on to get PhDs? Then CS would
be a purely academic field and no one would own anything with a
chip in it because chips wouldn't exist outside a lab. And who
pays all these super geniuses to do pure research forever? Sigh...
Feeling bad that your cop-out friends all drive expensive cars and
can afford to eat better than rice every other night while you're
kissing your Prof's fat pot sticker filled ass everyday? Bitter
yet? And how about those of us in industry making those big bucks
who never even took a CS class? hehe...
\_ True, but people who usually go into a high tech job for the
big bucks usually ends up producing worthless junk, copying
other people's ideas, suing other people because they can't
come up with their own ideas, making faulty products, or
going along with the fad whatever it may be that day. People
who don't take academic seriously are usually the uncreative
types. Plus, if it weren't for the PhDs like Dave Patterson,
Ken Thompson, John Hennessy, and so forth we wouldn't have
things like RISC chips, chips that pipeline, superscalar and
vector processors, time shared multithreaded multiprocessing
operating systems, and so on. So if you think the academic
world is so bad why don't you just skip college, go straight
into your 'computer programming' company and tell your
employer how much you hate PhDs and universities that do
research in electrical engineering and computer science. |
