I like this because it reinforces my belief that time moves subjectively slower in the immediate period following significant environmental changes. The first few days of a vacation, for example, pass very slowly in my mind but the longer you remain on vacation the faster the days go by. Same goes for the first few days of college classes, or the days following a relocation to a new area.
I disagree with the original article because the rate of the passage of time seems to correspond more with the amount of new stimuli we experience, which (in most cases) just so happens to become less with age.
I'd definitely be interested in hearing more about your application process, how prepared you felt you were based on coursework, and of course what the job was actually like.
I'd like to return to study computer science some day, and in the meantime I'm just doing the best I can to learn on my own.
That being said, I still don't fully understand; Once I install the new RAM, will I only receive the benefits if I perform a new 64-bit install of Windows 7, or will upgrading just amplify the benefits? (I currently have 3 GB in 1 GB + 2 GB as the default factory configuration.)
Sorry if this question is dense of me, but my field is economics and the more technical aspects of HN are often lost on me
