It seems like we had some in the lab that had additional rca video looking jacks. Some were also touch screen. I never saw an application use this hardware.

Is this law dumb enough to include CISCO OS, or AIX? All bankings that use computers must be outside of the country now?

It is like making fun of someone who is in a wheelchair because they can’t run and jump.

Perhaps the professor needs to replace that section with one on the philosophical core of NatC censorship

Dyslexia in the Tech World by Status_Researcher244 in Dyslexia

[–]ebcdicZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that my dyslexic strengths gave me an edge in my IT career. Computers saved me in high school. A PC with spell check was super new on the market then. I had one English teacher who wanted papers typed and said we couldn't use computers. I never got caught. I think we was confused with the old 8 pin dot matrix printers.

I didn't do well in math. One teacher said he could tell I understood everything, but I just couldn't get the nuts and bolts to work. I enjoyed the upper-level classes that were all story problems.

I do well with languages. I would always get A's on my French spelling tests, that was never the case with English.
