Don't get me wrong, a CS degree is definitely worth it's value because it easily open more doors. You're going to be at a disadvantage on paper compared to a new college graduate with a CS degree because certain assumptions won't be able to be made when recruiters and hiring managers look at your resume, and you may not get a second glance due to them using it as a weeding out factor.
Serf.Sorry I couldn't make it, the Evil Fiefdom had me working until 10:59 tonight.Hrmm.... and what role might you play in all this fiefdom?
35 monk a1 nm even though I beat a1 nm (wtf blizzard?)Wow. You just destroyed the English language more than Twitter.
I think it would be really interesting if chat clients could, for example, play the role as both web server and browser. Perhaps web technologies are ill suited to this, but certainly dynamic content that can be efficiently "chatted" with one or more users would be a curious tool. I mean something beyond a white board and video chat ... something that is as extensible as current web technologies.I've definitely thought about things like that. I think that opens up a lot of potentially scary attack surfaces though... security would be a bit of a challenge. I don't think it's out of the question, by any stretch, though.
You're publicly known to be a Microsoft employee on this forum. So why would you openly violate the Battle.net TOS/EULA and potentially make the code open source? Once you're known to be affiliated with a company, then the company expects you to behave yourself.I said nothing about Battle.net 2.0.
I knew someone who worked on reversing the Battle.net 2.0 protocol and Blizzard lawyers knocked on his door (quite literally in person). I think you're risking a lot playing with these bots that violate licenses (potentially even DMCA) now that you have your job at MS and it's not worth risking. Just move on.
