Rapture

Alright, I got two links here I want to share that sort of provide some insight into our future occupations. This dirty little secrets link, which aren't really that dirty, mostly little, is still kind of interesting to think about. I think one of its best points is that tech degrees don't really give you the experience you need in a job. They help get you into the job but there are so many languages and systems out there that you'll almost undoubtedly have to start from scratch when you get onto a job site. However, a degree and the training it involves will give you the mindset and logical skills you need to adapt in a new job situation. A couple of these secrets are more like habits of IT pros, and since we're all heading in that direction, we can decide to abandon said bad habits if we wish. Still useful.

These "tech disasters" range in severity. The article's written in a British perspective, but a lot of these seem to happen in America. Frankly I'm not surprised. Anyways, the majority here don't seem to be human error persay; obviously the software bugs were caused by human error but software bugs occur regularly. I'd call it more fate that transposed these small flaws into full-blown disasters.
