IIS5.0 exam
I have to say this is the most unjust exam i have ever taken. What pisses me off is when i was marked down because i did not do it the right way. I said “what matters is it works right and there is more than one way of doing it“, the reply i got was “you did not do it correctly and there IS only one way of doing it.“… what the… i was totally stuned at the respond. Tell me how many ways are there to setup a virtual server in IIS5.0?
Another thing was we were required to write down the url to access the virtual websites that we have created from an “external browser“. That is a bit subjective so i asked and clarified that “external browser” meant a browser that is out of the room and out of the LAN. If you did not have access to the DNS servers, would you be able to do that? It was an exam, so probably they knew what they were doing so i tried to figure it out. Eventualy i left that answer blank, cuz i thought it was a trick question and i was SO wrong. The FREAKING ANSWER WAS 192.168.0.72 CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!!!!
the coolest dude of 1945
If you are a web designer, an information technology student, a cyber punk, a philosopher, a business man, a parent, a church goer or a life form that dares to claim intelligence, then you should know Dr. Vannevar Bush. A former Massachusetts Institute of Technology president and Director of the wartime Office of Scientific Research and Development who urged scientists to turn their energies from war in the mid 1940s to the task of making the vast store of human knowledge accessible and useful. Go read the world changing article As We May Think. The following is a short excerpt…
“The applications of science have built man a well-supplied house, and are teaching him to live healthily therein. They have enabled him to throw masses of people against one another with cruel weapons. They may yet allow him truly to encompass the great record and to grow in the wisdom of race experience. He may perish in conflict before he learns to wield that record for his true good. Yet, in the application of science to the needs and desires of man, it would seem to be a singularly unfortunate stage at which to terminate the process, or to lose hope as to the outcome…” ~ excerpt from As We May Think by Vannevar Bush on The Atlantic Online.
deltaworkz web design comp.
dezzo and i got picked as the finalists in deltaworkz web design competition beginner category. We were quite amazed and very flattered. The results are out and as i have expected, neither of us won.
Come to think of it, competitions are kinda fun, cuz you get to know other competitors and also get to see good stuff. Probably they should have a competition to see who has the plainest site, that way i might have a higher chance of winning. LOL…
