Good find, and definitely worth a read! 4 hours is certainly ample time to slip up and make a mistake. The live interviews seem to be a safe bet. It would reflect poorly on them if they routinely skewered their guests.

There's a reason children are held to different standards than adults, legally as well as morally.

It's worth pointing out that The Daily Show has always employed a modest amount of creative editing during their interviews. To my knowledge it's just to accentuate the comedic effect and not to the point of actually manufacturing any porti

Hey there! I'm in much the same boat. I have to admit I'm rather relieved reading your post because at least I'm not the only one who is rapidly developing an inferiority complex here ;) For my part, I'm 28 with a Philosophy degree and cur

a. I disagree, but this is speculation on my part. For instance, I think an issue can gain sufficient public attention without television coverage. In addition, I think a Wikipedia blackout would in fact garner a not-inconsiderable amount

That is cynical to the point of being shortsighted. Even assuming the "news oligarchy" really operates as something resembling a unified entity, and regardless of said unified entity's feelings vis a vis Wikipedia - an outage would make he

I agree. Neutrality is laudable in principle, however is not something that should be embraced at the exclusion of common sense and self preservation. Based on everything I've heard, this is a perfectly appropriate time to take bold action

Sick! The lack of adequate functionality in PyPDF has been a pet peeve of mine for a while! I really look forward to trying this out.

What indicates the cannonball struck the hill at all? The article only mentions it went 'over' the foothills. It presumably could have bounced off, but that doesn't seem to be corroborated. At the end of the day, whatever precautions were

I'm certainly guilty of this. In my case, I suspect I process verbal information a touch slower than I should (which is to say probably above average, but below average when dealing with the fast-talking-fast-acting business crowd).

I think you missed the point. Why do you perceive statement #1 to be factual? If you have no domain expertise, you have no way to evaluate it. _DPS's example sounds -identical- to someone without domain knowledge, and yet is comically ab

Your view could also be interpreted as being biased against US based developers (what you refer to as 'Native') and the racism you perceive them to be exhibiting.

This is plain silly. How do you plan to measure "intelligence and capability"? By this logic, a brilliant-slacker-underachiever should be the most sought after candidate. Who cares about results, after all, when all that matters is someone

This is spot on, and I'm glad someone pointed this out. I'm not a product manager, but can recognize that when working outside of my field of expertise I could probably use some guidance when it comes to building a product for said field.

This sounds like an amazing opportunity. If it were even remotely feasible, I'd consider relocating from DC just for this class.

This 1 line had a greater emotional impact on me than anything I've read or heard since Steve's passing. Thanks.

What specifically is meant by 'unpaid' vs 'paid' work hours? I find it hard to believe that Belgians, for instance, are only paid for 3.8 hours of work per day. What am I missing?

Is the full tutorial available? The presentation slides are great, by the way.
