>All I read from it was the claim that racism/sexism does not exist, and a request against affirmative action. I'm actually making the argument that prejudice is alive and well and that that is the whole problem. We should be blind to w

Perhaps a better way to put it is "be consistent in what you do, be inconsistent in where you go." Being consistent in your actions is of paramount importance if you want to master anything. You have to practice day in and day out. Being in

A thousand times this. I used OSX at one job where everyone else was too and was appalled at how bad it is for getting work done. It's pretty and shiny but broken by design in terms of usability. Switching windows is a pain in the ass (diff
