"Once CHE approves a degree all Kenyan employers are bound to accept them" This statement is incomplete. To say that 'employers are bound to accept them' implies that it is illegal to employ someone from a programme that has not been approved by CHE. This would only be the case if you are hiring in the public sector (public service, civil service, parastatals etc.). As a private employer, you are free to employ anyone you please though it is in your interest to employ someone from a credible institution. CHE is trying to make the job easier for you but by no means constrains your freedom of choice. CHE is merely a guide but has no liability for your hiring choices nor would you (as an employer) have any obligation or responsibility to CHE for your hiring decisions. -- Regards, Paul K.

How do employers view online degrees?
by Paul Korir 11 May '15

Jayden, It might be the case that employers disdain online degree programmes. But software engineering as a discipline easily lends itself to demonstration. Besides, good employers are more interested in what you can do rather than how or where you got your degree and ultimately this is what counts. If I were in your position I would therefore put more emphasis on making what I learn demonstrable by having a living Github profile with work I have done. So whether or not employers look down on an online degree no one will question your real skill if you have substantial software output. -- Regards, Paul K.

If the link is below 10mbps you can try flood ICMP traffic on both sides of the link. Do a continuous ping with byte of above 2000k with 0 timeout and monitor the WAN interfaces in your NPM engine,you will obtain download/upload bandwidth graph.

Martin, Just to clarify: is this a set top box plus an Internet device? Or is it an Internet device through which one would stream local TV? Thanks for all the updates. ^_^ PK On 8 May 2015 at 12:36, <skunkworks-request(a)lists.my.co.ke> wrote: > Send skunkworks mailing list submissions to > skunkworks(a)lists.my.co.ke > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > skunkworks-request(a)lists.my.co.ke > > You can reach the person managing the list at > skunkworks-owner(a)lists.my.co.ke > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of skunkworks digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
