It is simply another tool to help increase communication between teachers and students, I can't dream up of a situation where phones would be required to be used in a classroom. With that in mind it might be worth it to enable a feature tha

Every release of new free classes from Stanford or MIT just makes me giddy and jealous of everyone that goes there. A lot of extra work goes into these classes and I think it says tons about the awesome ideals that these institution holds,

I think there is a point of expected knowledge though, as somethings really won't matter in the long run. It's been a long long time since I've touched C, but if I remember right a big issue with int main() & int main(void) is that if y

I don't think it will be as successful as you think, and my reasoning for that is that it really doesn't have much to do with the movie. Don't get me wrong, it's a cool idea and you should do it for the novelty if you want, but if you reall

Yeah, the FDA, insurance companies, and entirety of health care isn't great, and yeah med school really sucks for the people to go there but you can't just throw that shit out there are very good reasons that these ideas were put into place

For #4 I think he is saying that your end product may be different then what you envisioned it as, and as such you must be willing to let go of certain things and to adapt to what is needed. Of course with that said you also have to underst

I do think that people can have a real passion for programming, have a life, and be able to work in a professional environment. They probably already have a job, or will get one very soon. All the points you listed are totally valid though,
