Considering the attitude demonstrated thus far, corporations will be stuck with ie6 until 2050? ie10 has already been announced, so when is the corporate sluggishness decide to upgrade?
The security one is sort of funny. I read some CISSP book that covers what the CISSP person ought to know for the exam. Not sure why anyone would need this book (or cert) considering you would already have to have 5 years experience on the job to even be considered.
I was rather shocked at the derisive attitude demonstrated towards programmers in the book. The author went out of her way to call programmers all sorts of silly names. If the book teaches nothing beyond common sense, it does show the attitude in the corporate world towards its employees.
Programming in a nutshell according to this book: Program in Java, use Applets, and if the programmer messes up, program it yourself (regardless to the fact you don't know what you are doing).
