I'd like to know, how did your apprentice ship look like? With a story that goes "Expelled from HS, went to trade, best decision ever" you sound like an outlier to me. Because in my country, vocational schools are mostly terr

Huh, I have never heard about the royalty free licence or opensourcing of parts of clr. Do you have source for that? Like, the .net core was opensourced just last year, and even the .net micro for resource constrained devices was opensource

Nice! I actually had similar routine while at school, but it was 6 hours a day total. 3 hours in the evening, usually just before I went to sleep, might be 19-22, or 21-24 and 3 hours in the morning when I woke up and continued for ~3 hours

I think I would consider myself a middle class, and I think I have two reasonable arguments why I dislike my "taxes buying $THING_OF_VALUE" for poor people. 1. this implies my taxes need to pay for somebody deciding who is poor or

Is this a US specific thing? Why would you need to keep your SSN and bank account number private? Ok, I know US citizens are not automatically given ID cards, so if everybody takes the SSN you give them at face value, I get that. I don&#x27
