Well, wouldn't you be in trouble no matter what they upgraded to, subscription or purchase? I mean, if you're not getting the license of the new version, you're SOL somehow.
Some people juggle geese!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
They will upgrade me with just InDesign, because it is inexpensive (I don't have the whole suite). But I can't imagine they would pay $29 or $39 a month for me to make posters when the other people at my level use word and publisher

Oh, now I understand. I thought you were getting old version castoffs. But you don't have to pay for the whole suite--you can still pay for just one tool. I think the prices flatten out (why bother get Elements if Photoshop rental costs the same?) so it might be pricier than before, but still.

Oh- that is the part I missed- I thought it was a flat fee for all programs.

I love the people who make Start8. It's the first thing I installed on my new Alienware work computer.

How can I make fields mandatory in Excel 2007? I knew how to do it in 2003, but now I can't find that option. I feel like it should be under Data Validation...

Hey. New board.
Does anybody have cable (specifically ESPN3), a DVR with the ability to convert to digital files, the know-how to make that happen, and a willingness to help me out? I'm trying to get a recording of the national MathCounts countdown round (airs at 3:30 EDT on ESPN3 this Friday) to show my Mathcounts team the following week. (Mathcounts is a middle school math competition). I can stream ESPN3 online but I don't have any good way of recording it for the future. I doubt this will be showing up any ahemming sites, so I'm limited on options.
Please let me know if you can help. I'd really appreciate it.

If you are writing the requirements for a function to be called in Javascript, is it complete and specific to say "return me the information in a JSON object" if everyone knows the information is, say, a name, a phone number, and an ID?
I'm used to saying "text field, length variable", "text field, length 12", and an integer. Is JSON so self-describing that front end can parse happily what the back end gives it without some up front agreement about formats and/or naming convention?
I don't want to learn a lot about JSON, but the people I'm asking for a little are being really terse. It's way too little. And I know one party involved will turn around and complain to my boss I didn't give her everything she needed.
Grr. Off to Google.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

No.

You I trust, Scola. But these people are driving me nuts. Everyone (including me) thinks they are sitting on the bridge between technical ans business understanding, but I'm the only one that will get graded on writing it down. WHY CAN'T I PULL IT OUT OF THEIR BRAINS?
I asked "do you have enough information to write the code now?" and she said yes, but the answer has never been yes before. I am suspicious of the apparent interim epiphany.
Okay, onus is on me. Off to larn.
