Oh yes, there's no such thing as race, because you can't look into DNA and say this man was black. Though you can look at his skeleton and say he was black; ask any anatomopatholog or orthopedics doctor about that. What was abou

So? Why? What pays for the trouble of running constantly before a steam locomotive (rolling release; stop for a week or two and your system breaks apart on the first update)? Because I'm totally unconvinced that "Pacman runs circl

Well, Lamport didn't know that the generals are only allowed not to vote when he was writing the original paper. I read the original publication. Have you?

How did the random recruiters get your phone number? And then, if you want to speak with them at all , why don't you tell them as the very first thing in the phone call to send you an e-mail with the offer? When an idiot recruiter sen

It depends where it is from and what did you learn during getting it. I visited two faculties and one was totally worth the time and effort I spent, and the other was just enough to put the foot in the door of a programmer's profession
