You absolutely must modify this before employment or you will run into problems later down the line if you want to sell your own software. As you can see there is a clause that states the company has no rights to anything you developed before employment. At the minimum, you should write out a description of what you are working on and have developed on your own time and include that in the contract. Make an addendum that clearly states that you aren't giving up rights to what you have already started, and what you plan on continuing to work on in your own time. It is important to get that approved up front.

They'll own it.
In fact, they'll own everything that you create, whether its related to their business or not. Every comment you make on CP, they own. Every grocery list you write, they own. Every picture you take of your grandkids, they own.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

I just had a dream where I could turn into an hawk and of a town overrun by hungry demons!...
Was it a potent prophetic sign?
|

Yes. And I'm still waiting to have the dream where the hawk realizes that the hungry demons own everything that comes out of it.. whether they want it or not.

I have seen this before but it is worth seeing from time to time just as a reminder.
My upvote.

Yes. No need to be hooded like that.
Perhaps, they want to remain anonymous, and keep all the focus on Dave.

A shy gentleman was preparing to board a plane when he heard that the Pope was on the same flight.
"This is exciting," thought the gentleman. I've always been a big fan of the Pope. Perhaps I'll be able to see him in person.
Imagine his surprise when the Pope sat down in the seat next to him for the flight.
Still, the gentleman was too shy to speak to the Pontiff. Shortly after take-off, the Pope began a crossword puzzle.
This is fantastic, thought the gentleman. I'm really good at crosswords.
Perhaps, if the Pope gets stuck, he'll ask me for assistance.
Almost immediately, the Pope turned to the gentleman and said,
"Excuse me, but do you know a four letter word referring to a woman that ends in 'U-N-T'?"
Only one word leapt to mind.. My goodness, thought the gentleman, I can't tell the Pope that.There must be another.
The gentleman thought for quite a while, then it hit him. Turning to the pope, the gentleman said, "I think you're looking for the word 'AUNT'."
"Of course," said the Pope. "Do you have an eraser?"
I'll get my coat.

My first thought was Aunt.
Of which word did you think?

"Another of Fortran's breakthroughs was the GOTO statement, which was a uniquely simple and understandable means of structuring and modularizing programs."
From the May/June'94 IEEE Institute, an article about John Backus receiving the Draper Prize for having developed Fortran.

I'm guessing they were referring to the computed GOTO - which allowed a sort-of implementation of the switch/case type statement
Used to use that a lot back in the day for menu handling!

Interestingly enough the GOTO statement got very bad press through the 80's and 90's and it has now made a comeback.
I occasionally make use of the return statement nowadays to avoid horribly nested code that is difficult to read.
Also the break statement is another example.
It just appears that the 'G' word has bad press.

I'd like to capture/stream live video from one pc and see it on another.
Anyone know of an app that can do this?
Thanks
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

VLC might do. It can both stream and show video from a stream, amongst a zillion other things.
