What’s the difference between Computer Science and Software Engineering?

Ok so im currently taking college courses and I am under the impression that Computer Science and Computer Software Engineering is pretty much the same thing as a major. I want to decide on the two so if any one can tell me if there is a real difference and what that difference is I would appreciate it.

Is this a paradox in computer programming / software development/ system engineering ? “[Most improvements are

not improvements……because they seriously interfere with the synchronisation of the software development]”
(this could be worded better)

When programming software for websites should you run test cases on the production system?

I believe you can’t guarentee the accuracy of a live system without first running a live test through it. Is this bad practice? Should testing be isolated to the staging environment? How can you guarentee that software that works in the development enviroment works when made live?

Linus Torvalds Sinclair QL software blitter GMOVE 1986 (pre Linux)


On Dec 28th 2009 Linus celebrated his 40th birthday. Congratulations. This video is my birthday present. Way back in the 80s Linus Torvalds made his first conceptional and system programming experiences on the Sinclair QL with its preemptive multitasking operating system QDOS. In 1986 Linus wrote a software blitter “GMOVE” as an extension to the superbasic language of the QL. It was published as a printed listing in the Finnish computer magazine BITTI in November 1986. This vid shows how GMOVE performs on an unmodified standard QL system (68008 CPU @7.5Mhz, 128KB RAM). Linus explored the QL deeply before he decided to buy a 80386 CPU based PC. Read a newsgroup message thread on the QL dated 1992 with contributions of Linus: groups.google.com More Info on GMOVE and download of it can be found here: www.qlvsjaguar.homepage.bluewin.ch

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! On-the-fly encryption (OTFE), also known as Real-time Encryption, is a method used by some encryption programs, for example, disk encryption software. “On-the-fly” refers to the fact that the files are accessible immediately after the key is provided, and the entire volume is typically mounted as if it were a physical drive, making the files just as accessible as any unencrypted ones. To be transparent to the end user, on… More >>

Is there any software that will allow me to program in a programming language like C on a PC?

I took C programming in college and I want to try my hand at it again. Is there any software that will run a C program or programs in other languages? Also, is there any language that has become very popular since the early 1990s that would be even better to learn than C?
