When everyone goes to college, the bachelor's degree becomes the new high school degree. Then you either split between "good" bachelor's and "bad" bachelor's (depending on the institution), or all the degr

"dgit" is not the best of names, since git itself is already distributed, as they note. It would have been more accurate to call it "replicated git", or "rgit". I guess they just wanted to be able to pronounce

What web are you guys even browsing? hardsexwarez-download.ru or something? I haven't used ad blockers in years and the problems you are describing are completely alien to me.

I do wish Lyft and Uber would just tell me to cross the street for a faster pickup. In many cases, I could even walk a couple of blocks, and from the route on the map I even know exactly where to walk. But I cannot, because the driver would

The Wikimedia Foundation should treat its treasure trove of donations as an endowment and use it to guarantee the survival of Wikipedia. If they just invested it, they may never need to do a donation drive again.

You still don't understand the issue. This is not about your technical skills, it is about your integrity. Integrity is considered extremely important in American society. Claiming to have a degree that you do not have is a serious lie

I don't even understand their logic. Why not simply ask the government to ban or restrict the use of old cars without those safety features, after a short transition period? That would boost sales by forcing motorists to upgrade. Emiss
