Re:Harvard details suspensions in massive cheating scandal on Sunday February 03, 2013 @06:05AM (#5159331)
I was unable to find which course it was this time. Although I suspect it was something along those lines again.

There was a similar scandal in 2012 - here's my favorite commentary on that:

Tears in my eyes after reading this, seeing the "What it is is beautiful" commercial and remembering. Everything.

I'm also a 'Junior Developer'(around 2yr) and am currently in the phase where I have started to see the faults in the systems my seniors design. There's a module that's driving me nuts, and I'm still pondering on how to tell the senior developer(who wrote it) that it's crap, over engineered and too specific. The module works to an extent, but I can see problems up ahead if the module doesn't get fixed or an alternative is created.

I already knew most of the things described, but it's always nice to refresh your memory:)

In this stage of my career I'm thinking more and more about going somewhere where software engineers get paid what they are worth (And I'm beggining to realize I'm worth something). With "somewhere" I mean another country. Since mine is becoming increasingly unfriendly to live in.

Any suggestions/advice on how to successfully relocate to a job in another country? US or UK come to mind, since there's no language barrier for me there.
