leftyjewshould i get an MS in Comp Sci? I'm always afraid of being pigeon-holed, but I don't think that could happen to me because I try to avoid it. What the hell. I'll find out several things tomorrow.
In the mean time, here's the deal:
1. I got a BA in Int'l Affairs and a minor in comp sci.
2. I really like comp sci and would like to do it professionally with a nonprofit org.
3. I don't have the qualifications/certifications/experience that many nonprofits want of their techies.
4. I kinda want to work for a while.
Any opinions from those of you reading this? Please gimme some advice!

Date: 2003-10-15 01:02 am (UTC)About the Jinmao tower...I was reading on the BBCnews, ironically now the CCP decided it'd be a brilliant idea to hire an int'l jumping team to jump off the tower w/ parachutes. 6 people have died so far. WTF?????
I don't think going back to school right now is the best course of action. Try working for a few years first...Any luck? Give me a call one of these days.
Take care,

the money and experience they pay you to work against the man.
Then later, you can quit and get a job you like without having
to have spent a lot of time worrying more about the price of
cooking oil than doing something constructive. Certainly we
could use more progressive programmers (and hackers ;)
