That is what tracking your billable hours means.... Clocking in and out is, however, common for hourly employees.

My grandma loves her new Windows 8 computer. She hasn't called me for help at all since she got it--a vast improvement over her old Mac laptop and XP desktop.

There are a lot more who use their ecosystem than you think. All of their services work very well together, the Music and Video services have anything I could ever want (seriously, more current TV shows than anywhere else I've seen), the em

Good companies should not have a single point of failure. If they do, the only way they'll learn to live without you is if you're not there. Just take a break. Go somewhere that doesn't have cell phone coverage. (Alternatively, just turn it

It's really not that long. TL;DR is for the lazy or people who should be working but aren't.

A pilot probably wouldn't know how all the systems work together. (They probably know what ACARS and ADS-B -do-, but not the implementation details.) You would want an avionics engineer--so someone who works at Honeywell, Rockwell-Collins,

Bombardier also build CRJs, business jets (Globals, Challengers and Learjets), does government work and builds fire-fighting aircraft. Oh, and the C-Series is a brand new a/c entering into the lower end of the Boeing market. That being said

When I was out of the country on vacation recently, I didn't turn on my phone and I didn't bring my computer. I didn't have internet (because I refuse to pay for internet at hotels) either. Writing (by hand) in a journal and just experienci

Or, you know, you can just say something like: - "I'm in the middle of something right now. I'll call you back." - "Hey, I can't talk right now. Try again after 3." - "Hey, I've got a call on the other line that I need to take. Talk to you

Usually. My group isn't IT, so with almost every purchase we ask for customization. (IT gets custom stuff too, but they also buy a lot more off-the-shelf stuff.) We have disqualified vendors for not being able to customize their product fas

Article I of the US Constitution deals with Congress. Section 1 is a introduction and establishes the House and the Seante. Sections 2-6 deal with how to elect congressman and the "floor rules" basically. Section 7 is how a bill becomes a l

It just warns you and says that "same application featurews may not be supported" or something like that. TouchDevelop and some of the Compass apps do this.

Fair enough. My main point is that we spend a lot of time trying to get the autopilot to function right, but it's not an easy problem where you can just throw a bunch of edge case detection code in. There are lots of physical control laws i

It's highly version controlled. Changing software versions on a plane usually means changing a lot of hardware too. After removing the boxes from the a/c, they can be returned to the manufacturer and the new software can be installed. We te

Try writing the code for an autopilot some time. It's hard. We spend a lot of time flight testing just the autopilot. Making something go in a particular direction at a particular altitude at a particular speed is hard enough. Throw in a

Messages are prioritized on the screens in the cockpit in any aircraft I've ever seen. Higher priority messages are near the top and are a different color. There are lots of messages because lots of things can go wrong with an aircraft. The

Yeah, I don't know about the a/c in question; however, the Colgan crash was a result of the pilot fighting the stick pusher and winning. The stick pusher is not easy to override. It seems counter intuitive to nose down when you're falling

The pressure difference between the interior and exterior of the aircraft causes considerable stress on the aluminum. One of the advantages with composite fuselages is their greater durability. This will allow for pressurization to an equiv

I have a 1st gen Zune (black, not brown), and I think it's great. It doesn't have some of the flashy stuff or a touch screen like the newer models have, but it's never crashed on me. It's solid. I've dropped this thing a bunch of times (som

I don't know why everybody keeps trying to digitize books. I know it's cheaper to give someone a download than to make an actual book, but I'm willing to pay more for a print version. Print versions don't strain my eyes as much as computer

I'm not a tax guy, but based off my experience: Assuming he's single: Federal taxes will be around $47.6k. (~28% at $170k, the 33% bracket hits you at $171,550.) State taxes vary widely. Some cities even have income taxes (e.g. NYC). Next y
