Keeping in mind I only brought this up because the OP seemed to imply it was a completely useless degree with which I disagree. My point is and has been that there are a number of skills gained from studying say Russian literature that are

You keep back treading in your own argument. You can't argue that CS isn't vocational training and then say: >I don't think an adventure game degree would make you very marketable If the goal of further education is to gai

I think that is a pretty jaded statement. What if instead of being able to get a CS degree, degrees in engineering were required to be spun around a topic. So that you left college with a degree in "Mid Nineties Adventure Games".

People always want to give literature students a hard time. But do you know where they end up by the numbers? One answer, law school... they love to read old incomprehensible stuff and are obsessed with research. I'm in software develo

whats the difference? 20% of Americans lease their cars from manufacturers right now, when you lease something by its nature you don't own it. Another 60% make use of financing when they buy, in which case the bank owns your car. If yo

To be fair your statement is more inline with my first point, for as much as someone shows how clean Angular http services are there will always be someone who like the simplicity or paradigm of the more seasoned pillar platforms

so http requests are also similarly directly handled in Angular without the need for jquery.

But seriously not to answer a question with a question, though I am going to... but maybe the better question is "why do frameworks like Backbone need to use jQuery?" Base angular is incredibly compact and I have yet to really run

The poster is speaking to pg being off the mark about uber because uber has been ignoring and flouting existing laws. Where as Tesla is victim of a new interpretation of the law.

Fair, but in science there is no such thing as innocent until proven guilty or vice versus. The burden of proof lies with anyone trying to make a hypothesis and the author of the article is hypothesizing and claiming results without method

This is a frustrating article the author presents numerous case studies but hasn't put together any long term and wide ranging data to address the disease. The only thing he seems to be saying concretely is that few patients that he sa

What is interesting is though the state has an incredibly fast evolving legal ecosystem, it has obviously not maintained the same technological policies.

The original article definitely had a feel of non-truth-yness that was widely discussed in the comments. As a show me the numbers nerd it is nice to see a supporting study that supports some of the priors discussed.

I understand the argument that this article is trying to make. But I feel like ultimately it is a semantic argument around the use of the word science in a job title that has little to do with what people actually in those roles accomplish.

Agreed, sometimes a post can just be good enough that all it takes is a few words to show your respect. Any commentary to the nuances of the project feels like arguing about whether or not Monet did a good job picking a paint store. This is
