Even the best efforts to teach employees how to manage their time are likely to be swallowed up by that formidable foe of productivity: the e-mail inbox.
Microprocessor engineers agree multi-core design is the wave of the future, but they differ widely on how to implement them and surmount the many challenges they pose based on a panel at the International Solid State Circuits Conference that gathered senior chip designers from Advanced Micro Devices, IBM, Intel, Renesas, Sun Microsystems and startup Tilera.
For impatient readers who don't mind spoilers, here are selected excerpts from my e-book The Ph.D. Grind, which is the first known detailed account of an entire Ph.D. experience.
"Tl;dr" means "Too long; didn't read"
As a Ph.D student, I searched for advice on succeeding in grad school, and often thought that eventually I would repay the favor when I became a professor. I never got around to doing that, but now decided to give it a shot. So, here goes:
How does a professional writer discuss “The Elements of Style” without nervously looking over his shoulder and seeing Will Strunk and E. B.

These are my opinions on how to give a talk (using presentation software or transparencies) in computer science or mathematics, distilled for my students and for students attending Graphics Lunch. I go to conferences, see the same mistakes repeated by many a speaker, and write my reactions here. You are welcome to disagree with my opinions, as long as you think each issue through for yourself.
Scientists have searched for autism-related mutations in the fraction of the human genome that codes for proteins. The researchers sequenced this region, known as the "exome," in 175 autism patients and their unaffected parents. Their results suggest modest roles for hundreds of genes in the development of autism and pinpoint a few specific genes as genuine risk factors.
