Trump administration has a very hostile rhetoric against ANY immigrants. For illegals, they are criminals, and the legal ones are stealing the Americans their jobs! That is what I read from his campaign. Of cause, for legals, he might not t

Yes. Right naming hints right abstraction, vice versa. If you cannot find a good name, large chance is that you probably have some confusion as of how to structure your program. So yes, it is hard, and rightfully so.

Well you can not have it both ways. Since there now anti-immigrant administration at hand, this is still not too bad.

She is very careful but smart about her article. Title reads "Reflecting On One Very, Very Strange Year At Uber", doesn't seem very accusatory to me, however this only makes the what the article presents even more absurd.

OK, Uber is off the list for my next company. This toxic masculinity, whose dick is bigger contest is no good for stable person like me. Good luck with your alpha male culture, Uber :) Edit: Triggered Uber employee just sent his downvote. P

This is terrifying. I am speechless now. One thing comes to my mind is to avoid those encounters as possible, maybe those states as whole. Just sad.

Anything can be described as X2Y, if it is a function, even AlphaGo, from a high level is just image2(x,y). NN is universal function approximator, X2Y is just what it is.

But the truth is a bachelor degree is not a very difficult option, for 40% of US population, it is very PRACTICAL. Having a degree definitely helps me get a lot more interview opportunities than my friends who come out of a coding bootcamp.
