Worked at IBM back in 2010. It was the second most valuable company in the world at that time. I left and now the rank has slipped to 86. Sorry.

I have a Masters in Computer Science and Engineering. Most jobs in my country requires either a Bachelors or a PhD so it is more of a stepping stone for a PhD which I have no interest in pursuing. My current job is the only one that requires my highest degree. My previous jobs all require a lower qualification. In fact, most of the things I learned in my 2 years of acquiring the degree are not that useful in all the jobs I've had so far. Was it worth it? Well, I got the degree from a prestigious institute and that seems to matter more to interviewers than the degree itself. Maybe the real degree is the friends we find along the way \s

Oh that's very nice. I remember that. You might like the BeOS icons too (which Haiku still has)

Django is not boring


Django is mature, stable, and battle tested without using flashy new tech. Django IS boring, but that's another one of its features.

(personal opinion, not an official Django statement)


Django 1.0 was released in 2008! If old is boring, then Django is.


What is the name of this technique where some ranking based on year (or any other criteria) is displayed. Is there any javascript or c# etc library for this where the Year could be user controlled?
