Seriously, how is this on the front page and why do I get down voted for pointing out that it is less than excellent? If you want to be a better developer, especially as a front-end developer, you need to learn how to write and value good d

At least from what I've heard YCs position on this has been "not our problem". Frankly that has seemingly been their position on many concerns of founders e.g. housing. YC only leaves you 6 weeks or so from acceptance to star

That only works if you go to decent school were people have things to loose. Otherwise someone might very well end up dead or in prison. Adults can't manage violence, don't expect kids to.

Depends on what you mean by "make it". Banks quite often convince people to by into funds they know won't perform. They "make it" in terms of fees, but I don't find it very admirable.

I think people are quite aware of that line of thinking. Most people who live in slightly unpopular areas live there because they couldn't afford other places and now when the area has become more desirable they fear being pushed out.

While a agree with the problems people mention in this subthread there are also, at least in some parts of the world, plenty of women in "life sciences" (biology/chemistry/medicine) and other fields like economics.

The answer is that you're asking the wrong question. China has half the worlds population at its doorstep. Whatever you're seeing isn't relevant nor is a 20 year time frame. China is going to sell infrastructure and consumer
