    "Code" by Charles Petzold is a wonderful book about how computers work and it covers pretty much everything but in a way that is accessible to anyone who understand basic algebra.

    Why are you taking a jab at humanity majors. It seems to me your network admin is at fault here.

    Not what I meant. I'm familiar with several dozen languages and I try to get acquainted with at least one topic and programming language outside my comfort zone every six months. I…

    Who are you quoting? Is it me? If it is how did you infer I propose doing the same thing but with more money? In fact I'm advocating the opposite. Currently the move is towards mor…

    Ever hear of the bell curve? It applies to everything from intelligence, height, weight, to whatever else you care to measure. Also I refer you to http://searchlores.org/realicra/b…
