Thoughts of the day 02-06-2007 by EXreaction on Sat Jun 02, 2007 12:50 am
1:26 CST
The biggest mistakes made in life are made during the times when your under pressure. It is hard as hell sometimes, but you just need to take a step back, calm down, and then continue. This is another thing I must work on in my life. Sometimes I just have so much pressure to do something I feel like I could explode, and then of course things keep getting worse because I try so hard not to screw up (because I concentrate on the little part I am working on and don't look ahead).

--- end of rant and onto other things in my life ATM ---

So I gave my boss my 2 week notice, and I feel kinda bad, especially for the guys at work. Once I am gone they will have 3 people that can work at night and it will turn into hell for a while until the find someone else. But I need to move on and do something with my life. Even with as long as I have been there I wonder why I allowed myself to continue staying around here this long. I must move on with my life and career. It will be difficult, but I believe it could be a lot of fun as well.

The place I have been looking at most recently is the Boston area. There seems to be somewhat of a demand for PHP developers in that area, so I am sure I could get a decent job. Also, MIT is in the same area, so I could look at going to MIT. I'd love to learn more about electronics and get into robotics, because right now, most of low level hardware is far beyond my knowledge. I think I'd have a lot of fun with most of the people that go to school there. But then of course there is the hefty cost of going to school there, $30,000 to $36,000 a year...but if I could go there, have a lot of fun, learn new things, and have a fun part time job I wouldn't worry about the cost at all.

I am just afraid that I am going to have to move to some place first, then go job hunting, because it does not look like I am going to get any job offers where I am at now.

But now it's time to go to bed and forget about all my troubles by...

Microsoft gives Yahoo deadline on offer by pete77 on Sat Apr 05, 2008 7:43 pm
Microsoft gives Yahoo deadline on offer Sat Apr 5, 3:08 PM ET



Microsoft Corp. sent a letter to the Yahoo Board of Directors Saturday setting a three-week deadline for moving forward on its more than $40 billion buyout offer.

The letter signed by Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said Microsoft will take its case directly to Yahoo shareholders and work to elect a new slate of directors, if the board doesn't respond by the deadline by April 26.

The bid to buy Yahoo was made in January and announced Feb. 1.

At the time, Microsoft offered $44.6 billion, or 62 percent above Yahoo's market value. The deal is currently valued at about $41 billion, based on Friday's closing share prices.

Yahoo's board formally rejected Microsoft Corp.'s bid, saying it undervalues the company.

The Silicon Valley company has since explored alliances with Google Inc., News Corp.'s MySpace.com and Time Warner Inc.'s AOL, but no alternative to Microsoft's offer has surfaced.

Ballmer acknowledged these alternative negotiations in the letter and questioned why the company is not negotiating with Microsoft.

"This is despite the fact that our proposal is the only alternative put forward that offers your shareholders full and fair value for their shares," Ballmer wrote in the letter. "During these two months of inactivity, the Internet has continued to march on, while the public equity markets and overall economic conditions have weakened considerably."

Ballmer said the Microsoft offer has grown stronger as the time has passed.

"We believe that the majority of your shareholders share this assessment," he wrote.

Yahoo and Microsoft both lost less than 1 percent of their share of U.S. Web searches in February, the most recent month for which data are available, according to the research group comScore. During that month, Yahoo grabbed 21.6 percent of searches, more than Microsoft's 9.6 percent. Google Inc.'s share rose less than 1 point to 59.2 percent.

In the intervening...
