I really want to self-teach myself computer programming over the summer. I am looking at Amazon books and all of the reviews say "I noticed my 10 year old son playing around with scripts and I bought this book for him." And I was like "…" Now my dreams are kind of crushed because maybe computer programming is just a natural talent?
Thank you!
No, thats not true. There’s never an age to start something!
I know i can google them… but i would really appreciate if some one could just give me a jist…
windows presentation foundation
WPF is the latest in desktop app development in .Net. It features markup based layout much like asp.net. The markup language is XAML. It provides a new way to develop desktop applications keeping UI and logic separate.
windows communication services
WCF is used to communicate between different applications with stuff like services. It is much like web services, but is much more robust and configuration enabled. WCF web services can be configured to act like asmx webservices, or use json or something else. Anything that represents a service can benefit from WCF, such as web services, windows services etc.
I have a degree in Geography. I took an intro GIS class in college and enjoyed it. We used the ArcGis software package from ESRI in the class. I am now thinking of getting a Masters or a Certificate in GIS but I noticed that many colleges require computer programming classes. I am only a geographer and have no experience with programming so I am worried. Also virtually every job posting that I have seen requires programming experience. Any advice?
Hi Roger,
I’m doing Masters in GIS with a bachelors in computer science engineering. Actually when I was about to take GIS, I worried for not being a geographer 
. To work with GIS, you just need to know the basic use of computers.Arcgis is very user friendly most of the time. I do agree that job posting requires programming knowledge. You might need programming knowledge if you want to be in developing side, like gis software developer or gis database manager or publishing maps over internet. With your degree in geo,you would probably use GIS as a tool in geography.So do not worry!! You ll be fine. It again depends on the school you pick for Masters , which may ask you to take few programming courses.
Good Luck
Is computer programming Visual Basic in Excel considered computer programming Visual Basic? Or can a person be considered a Visual Basic Programmer with only programming Visual Basic in Microsoft Excel.
VBA (vb for excel) is considered really more scripting rather than full on programming, its very simple and while you can do some cool things (within excel) you’re not dealing with about 90% of the things full on software development deals with.
Lets say you have $5000 coming in per month, how much is a safe amount to spend on a mortgage, while still saving some for car payments, other loans, insurance, groceries, emergencies, etc? My dad said a 1/4 of your net income is a good idea per month to spend on your home payments…agree? disagree?
Your father is exactly correct! Listen to him! The people on here that recommend, 33% as a mortgage payment are also the ones who have contributed to the mortgage crisis in this country today! 33% of your net income is too much. It doesn’t leave you any buffer. If you are looking for the best home mortgage rates or want to reduce your mortgage loan payments, check out this site

What are the pros or cons to each. I’ve only used front page and I’ve been told that dreamweaver is better just wondering. Thanks!
FrontPage is proprietary software that adds a bunch of unnecessary and non-validated code. Dreamweaver doesn’t add code, you do the code yourself. It’s also better at cross-browser testing since you can add browsers into it. You would do just as well with Coda (Mac) or Notepad ++.
What are those net traps you see in the movies in jungles? When people walk on them, the net will just shoot up and they are trapped. What are they called, and if anyone knows, how do you make them?
Please forgive eddie… the atmosphere of his home planet doesn’t support life.
I currently have a website, but i now have created an newer version. I’m trying to upload my new site to replace the old site, but every time I try to upload it, the old site is still there. I’m using dreamweaver CS3 and need this site up asap. Please could someone help me, feel free to ask me any questions.
Your site will be stored on a web server with the hosting provider you can access it either by FTP or by another means the provider has given you. You need to login to the FTP site and delete the old site then upload the new site that way. New files will not replace old files on FTP servers they just get renamed to something like Index(!).html etc. You need to delete the old one first then uplaod the new one.
!! Always Backup your files before you delete them !!
I am in the Navy and will be shipping off to boot camp soon. After that, it’s off to Navy Nuclear Power School. I would like to take some computer programming classes during my off time if possible. I’ve always loved PC gaming but could never actually understand the scripting in gaming mods let alone actually create my own mods. Also, on a more serious note, much of what I will use later in my career will be very computer heavy, so I would like to have a good understanding of computer languages.
When I was in the Navy, there were plenty of schools available and correspondence courses. Check them out first after you join up. You also might be able to qualify for a Pell Grant and take courses from a university like Ohio U.

The last one I saw was, I think for ‘96 where after the taxes gained were figured in, the net loss was 20 billion a year.
Not really sure..
Take into consideration- the level of work that these people do, most of them would not make enough money to require payment of taxes. Quite the contrary, I believe.
If they were filing tax returns on their earnings, they would likely qualify for the Earned Income Credit. This would mean they’d COST the Federal Government money, instead of increasing tax revenues.
