<0> cause I am concerned about balance .. familly, work etc .. not money so much
<1> I would be more concerned about being great at what you do - then you can control things better
<0> I agree with that
<1> if you're a good programmer and want to work on games, we are actively hiring a bunch of people ;)
<1> (if you want to move to the seattle area)
<1> (bunch of game studios here, plus microsoft)
<2> And when they find out nobody wants to buy the PS3, they'll be actively firing a bunch, too
<1> lol
<0> but let says I learn C++ and I am good at it .. it won't be lost ?? I mean I can switch to another fields at worse ? like business dev etc ?
<1> for the most part, programming is programming
<1> if you're talented, you can adapt
<0> I know that
<1> then don't worry
<1> get on monster.com
<0> but xaml and the future of .net sure look like different then C++ ..
<1> and throw your resume out there
<1> get interviews, etc
<1> then you'll get a feel for some companies and what's expected
<1> actually the future of .net and the future of c++ don't look that different
<1> if you want to do games, you probably won't be using .net, unless you're on an xbox-only title, at least for now
<1> if you want to do .net and games, you can do tools
<0> yeah I know that
<0> but tools isn't the cool part like developping 3d engines and render stuff
<1> have you been on any interviews yet?
<0> improving core things .. things like that
<1> lots of tools are to the tune of bringing art ***ets to the renderer
<0> rdragon no, I have started learning C++ in 94-95 but I have done others things since then and now I want to give it another shoot
<3> rdragon: is your employer looking for people that have low level hardware knowledge, but are interested in programming?
<0> I got books
<1> Asmodee` we're looking for programmers, in all disciplines
<4> Kepler: try AC++
<1> low level hardware knowledge is good, especially in terms of concurrency and multiprocessor programming
<1> I can probably get you a phone interview, if you have a decent resume
<0> javaq I got that book yesterday
<3> my degree is in computer engineering... for example, we had to design a 16 bit CPU at the silicon level for one of my cl***es
<3> i want to work either where the hardware meets the software, or where the software meets the hardware
<1> that's doable, though the guys doing that are our more senior guys
<3> id ont have a decent resume.. my only work experience since university is this part time USB peripheral development
<3> ive been doing that for almost a year now
<1> *shrug* it's hard to say
<1> at least, hard for me to say
<1> if you want a phone interview, send me your resume
<1> (and if you want to move to redmond)
<3> well im willing to move to redmond... i should really redo my resume. i think it could use a complete redesign
<1> k, redo it and send
<0> Asmodee do you agree with the media hype, that say most of the best cs engineer in the world work at ms ?
<0> I am not sure about that if you ask me
<5> at the silicon level, that's impractical.
<5> i can do it at the logical level..
<5> i doubt i'll need to know how to make a nand gate out of silicon though.
<1> doesn't MS have 30,000 employees?
<1> good chance that a lot of the best work there
<2> pfft
<1> fttp
<3> Kepler: i havent a clue
<2> tfpt
<1> tftp
<3> NineVolt: well we did MIPS in VHDL and then we did VLSI level 16bit cpu
<3> the MIPS was 32bit
<3> VLSI where you actually cross ndiffusion and pdiffusion layers with poly silicon to form transistors and usch
<1> adk
<1> afk!
<3> i mean we didnt actually fabricate a chip, but our design files could have been used to generate an ASIC
<5> vhdl isn't exactly silicon-level.
<3> the 32bit MIPS was in VHDL, the 16 bit CPU was not in VHDL, it was at this level http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/be/CMOS_NAND_Layout.png
<3> VLSI layout
<5> i know nothing of VLSI, and the only MIPS i know is millions of instructions per second :P
<3> MIPS is a CPU architecture like SPARC or PowerPC
<3> i mean MIPS is of course Millions of inst. per second, but it's also a cpu arch
<3> we did MIPS R3000 without FPU
<5> indeed.
<5> i guess my school really does **** :P
<3> but did you see that pic from wikipedia? that's how you actually layout stuff at the silicon level
<5> yea, i never messed with that.
<3> be glad, it's an amazing pain in the ***
<5> thinking about taking vlsi as an elective.
<3> at that level you have to worry about gate capacitance and resistance and the wider you make your transistors the lower the resistance, but higher the capacaitance and all sorts of junk like that
<5> nice.
<3> well if you're a saddomasicist, yeah, it's wonderful
<5> i want to know all sorts of stuff :P
<3> the worst part was we werent using an industry type software like mentor graphics, we were using some crap open source program from berkeley called "magic"
<5> berkeley > *
<3> the semester AFTER i graduated they got a license for mentor graphics
<5> that better not be where you're at
<3> brekeley is good, but this software is junk
<5> or i'll murder you for your spot
<3> I went to Penn State Uni
<5> weak.
<5> i'm at njit, not far :P
<1> heh
<5> njit < *
<3> if you want to muck with VLSI level stuff go download magic, there's windows and linux available, we used linux
<3> there's other POSIX versions as well
<3> http://bwrc.eecs.berkeley.edu/Cl***es/IcBook/magic/index.html
<5> maybe if i'm sober one day :P
<3> actually i guess that's not a link to the actual magic site, just the docs
<3> http://bwrc.eecs.berkeley.edu/Cl***es/IcBook/tools.html
<3> we used SPICE and IRSIM for simulations, which is also available there
<3> it's a total pain in the *** and none of it is integrated together like you would expect
<5> yea i've used spice and quartus..
<3> not to mention that designing an XOR gate to operate > 1ghz using CMOS logic at 250nm is just annoying in general
<5> bla, naptime
<5> drunken stupor ends.
<1> http://www.noidea128.org/sourcefiles/16350~
<1> "generic event manager"
<1> lets you queue up a bunch of events of any type, register listeners that take one argument (the event type), and the events get dispatched to the listeners in the order they were queued
<1> and it's all typesafe, to boot
<1> so if you find a use for it, congrats

<1> what's this
<1> french music?
<2> I like the Brussels mp3 better
<2> http://ibargallo.free.fr/Brussels2006/0106%20Red%20Dirt%20Girl,%20Brussels%20260506.mp3
<1> yawn
<1> what's up?
<6> wow my god
<6> I orderd a server from dell yesterday, they said shipping in 2 weeks
<6> it shipped last night
<6> lol
<6> I went to go see if it had a status update it said 'in transit'
<6> I was like 'wtf'
<6> they can't have much of a testing procedure if they can build/test/box/ship a box in 1 day
<7> Maybe it was already built
<7> Or maybe it's in transit from where they build to where they test :D
<6> nah
<6> there is a checklist
<6> all of the steps are checked
<6> hehe
<6> i'm sure they had it pretty close to built
<6> I was just uber suprised
<6> 2 week ship date to a same day turn around
<6> can't complain tho :)
<6> ashe
<6> you remember the registry key where the resource limit in 2000/XP/2003 is located?
<7> What kind of resource?
<6> Gdi objects etc
<6> there is a registry key that sets the ammount of heap space thats allocated to the desktop and each session
<6> it defaults to something like 2048,2048,512
<7> What if you search for those values?
<6> thats not right
<6> heh
<7> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
<7> Manager\SubSystems\Windows
<7> ??
<7> Fun, I don't have a Windows in that path
<7> There's a Memory Management though
<7> With session pool size and such
<6> where?
<7> In Session Manager
