I see this in my step mother. My family isn't very high in social standing, but she has a nursing degree and a long well paying career, better than anyone else in my family. Now that I have a CS degree with similar pay, she pays me res

If you're comfortable, could you describe some of your experiences facing sexism? Did you experience this after you released information that you're a divorced parent?

From what I understand, if you mix women and men in the workplace then competition between employees goes up, for obvious reasons.

A counter-example: I also attended a middle tier state University for CS, and our single term required Ethics in Computing course was all but easy. That said, it certainly didn't capture the attention of students.

Here's an idea for 'slowly popping it': Innovate in trade schools and start convincing high school students to take that path instead of University.

It would take a lot more than that for me to switch from Firefox.

Is that true? I've always seem Chrome but never Chromium.

> standard browser Why would Chromium be the standard browser for Android? I have never had that installed on my phone. Edit: Yes I know Google develops the Chrome products. Down-voting my post without discussion is pretty useless, no?

I would bet you're right. As soon as an option was presented for using computer functions away from the PC (i.e. smartphones), people ditched the keyboard and desk.

You're not entirely wrong here. Companies have no obligation to give the consumer the biggest and best, if they know the consumer will be satisfied with par. For instance, if a business has no/weak competition, then even if the co

I see that on Reddit also. When viewing their site from a phone, a pop-up says "view on our app? [ Reddit Logo ] View on web? [ Chromium logo ]" Silly goose, I'm never leaving Firefox.

Shouldn't that be enough? The authors use more descriptive words to describe the circumstance, which creates better understanding. They could use, say, "humans", but not everyone uses their product and that would be a wasted

I think you're being pedantic. "Consumer" is more descriptive than your other words. Edit: I appreciate your concern about consumerism and the effects of being treated like cattle, I just think more descriptive words create b

I imagine it's only legal up until a certain visibility is crossed. Usually tint is measured as VLT (visible light transfer), and the lower the percentage the more dark the tint. Most states allow tint down to 30/35% VLT, which is

Excuse me? I'm not being racist, the friend of mine in the story was also a Chinese guy. From what I understand, at my University there was a pretty strong culture among Chinese students to share code and homeworks. I even remember my
