i have yet to understand StarLink business model . is it not much more expensive than that which we receive from terrestrial sources . as i have read it explained it is intended for those who presently do not have internet access . it is my assumption those w/o such access are of low economic means so good luck Elon . 10,000 satellites amazing . is this as crazy as colonizing Mars . thanx for suggesting the video i found it enlightening

It is meant for people who do not have access to high speed Internet, can you say dial-up? Many of those people have the means.

For example, all the shipping (from container vessels to yachts) and all air traffic starve for fast reliable internet. Some of them are now paying hundreds of thousands of dollars annually for a slow connection.

My son has an associate in Graphic arts and been through a coding boot camp. Now he wants to complete a four year degree, so what IT degree is best for some one who wants to do front end development?

S Desrosiers wrote: what IT degree is best It rather depends on what he wants to do, what courses are available, and what skills are likely to be in demand in four years. And the last one is impossible to guess at. However, for front end he would need a minimum of HTML, CSS and Javascript. I would expect a good understanding of some of the web frameworks (ASP.NET, PHP etc.) and one mainstream language in addition.

He's already over-qualified.
I so wish my brother had completed his graphic arts degree (back in the mid-80s); he could have made a killing and retired by now.

if we are talking 4 year degrees here, then I think Computer Science is all there really is. I am sure I am wrong here.

It is extremely rare that a company wants someone to do do just front end web dev, with zero basic skills in anything else, like SQL, etc.. I have never seen this; doesn't mean it does not exist.
With that said, you don't need college education to be a front end web dev.

The sad thing is, the young people that I know unanimously say how useless a degree in CS is for real world work.
|

Um, it is useless. My CS degree got me in the door, and that is all. Learned everything on the job and self taught. I have been learning ever since.
All a company needs is passionate noobs that want to learn and listen well. The rest is magick. No CS degree needed.

All true - also true for most other “engineering” degrees.

Computer Science - should cover, compilers and languages, OS, data structures, some device driver stuff, I am sure it has changed quite a bit since I got mine especially the dot.net stuff. At 4 year level not too much specialization.

Any compsci class that studies design and philosophy and patterns and low level concepts. Even in JavaScript, you'd be surprised how many devs don't know that multiplication is faster than division or what a super class is.

For those who work in companies that have large dev teams, has your organization considered using MS DevBox[^]?

I think there is a bit of an anti-Microsoft attitude in upper management at this time.
"They" seem to think that either "free" (e.g. open-source) or "whatever costs the most" must be the best product -- surely a mid-priced option should be avoided on principle.
