[edit] CE

Hi,i am a CE student and i want to know if you like your job, and if CEs have to work under pressure, thanks.Daniel Leite 13:15, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello. Computer Engineering is a challenging but intellectually rewarding discipline. You will have a broad yet detailed knowledge of both computer hardware and software, from how boolean logic is built from silicon, to arithmetic units, to a pipelined processor, to machine code, to assembly code, to how higher-level languages compile into lower level code. However, you may find it equally challenging to find a Computer Engineering job. I was unable to find one in the midwest, and would have been forced to move to California or Texas to find better prospects. Instead I got a job as a programmer. So being a computer engineer has its benefits and downsides. The negative is that you may not find a job in the specific field of computer engineering, but the positive is that employers will find you competent enough to get a job in the range from software to circuit design. Personally, I'm liking programming as a job more than hardware, though I still put computers together as a hobby. I work a 40 hour job with good pay and benefits, in an air conditioned building in downtown Chicago, though your first technical job may not be nearly as nice. If want to talk more feel free to leave another message :) Cnadolski 14:44, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] fr:brunner

Hi. I was looking over Wikipedia:Translation_into_English/French and saw the fr:brunner request which you had undertaken. The last comment says "Completed". If this means that you have completed the project, could you please delete it and close it (by putting a line at the bottom of the page as indicated)? If I misunderstand what you meant, please update the status tag with the current status of the project. I'd appreciate it, since I'm trying to help with the extreme backlog on FR->EN. Many thanks! --Storkk 23:44, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

I meant to say "Completed Christiane Brunner". I've updated the translation page to reflect this. There are a few more articles by the name of "Brunner" to complete.--Cnadolski 14:41, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chicago Meetup

I've updated the Chicago meetup page with a tentative date. Please join the discussion there toward setting a final date and place. Kelly Martin (talk) 16:43, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

I hope the time and place for the Chicago Meetup are convenient. Your reply would be appreciated.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 18:35, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

You are welcome, but please thank Kelly. It was her hard work.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 04:07, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
I forgot to remind you to take a look at WP:CHIASSESS#Current_Top-importance_Candidates and vote if you get a chance.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 15:33, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads-up to vote! I would have never found this on my own.—Cnadolski 17:19, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Cnadolski, I enjoyed the meetup with you as well. On the way back home to Wisconsin, I got to see a side of Chicago I had not seen before. It's an enjoyable place. Since the Blue line is down, the ride was free, and the bus was filled with nice people, too. I was amused to see that the bus driver stopped for a pretty girl in a summer dress, who had flagged down the bus, and then drove right by another woman (of my age), who tried to do the same thing a few stops later. I really enjoyed how we all shared, and how we all learned from each other. Best, Ancheta Wis 04:38, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry we didn't get a chance to talk more at the meetup. I look forward to seeing more of your work on wiki. Hope to see you again, Tom Harrison Talk 20:15, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Newsletter n°1

Bonjour and welcome to the first WikiProject France newsletter!! It should become a monthly special of our project, but until the next issue, here are some points to consider for the month:

  • In an effort to determine the active members from the inactive, all members are asked to simply sign on my special userpage.
  • I have slightly rearranged and updated the Project page, putting all the featured lists in collapsible tables. This unclutteres the page and you only have to see them if you want to. Give your feelings at the talk page.
  • I have made a Wikipedia advert for our project, Image:Qxz-ad108.gif, what do you think? Personally I feel the words need improving ...
  • There are still map problems at Template:French commune - any help at resolving them would be greatly appreciated.
  • What about starting a monthly drive? We currently have no Featured Portals (except for the Basque Portal which really isn't French any way), so how about improving Portal:France??? I don't know what's exactly wrong but the criteria can be seen at Wikipedia:Featured portal criteria.

It doesn't seem like a lot, so I hope we will still have enough problems for nexts months issue. Salut till the next issue, ChrisDHDR (17:13, 10 November 2007 (UTC)).

[edit] WikiProject Newsletter n°2

It's been one high aiming month! The French WikiProject and related pages have been aiming high for Christmas - and have received an equal number of presents in return!

Well, that's this issue. Au revoir et à bientôt till the next time, ChrisDHDR (19:00, 9 December 2007 (UTC)).

[edit] Category:Top-importance Chicago articles

We are going to go through another round of consideration for Category:Top-importance Chicago articles. Last August your votes helped us decide our last round of promotions. Please consider the articles at WT:CHIASSESS and voice your opinion on whether they should be on the ballot near the end of January when we are considering our next round of promotions.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 02:59, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Top Importance Chicago Articles

If you want to help me choose Category:Top-importance Chicago articles, come comment at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Chicago/Assessment#Current_Top-importance_Candidates by June 5th.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 13:42, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your votes. Please note that your 8th place vote seems to be for an article not on the ballot. I would appreciate it if you would change your vote to a current nominee.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 23:49, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
