Agree. I guess they (the school) really fear that this could be a repetitive trend and they want to crush it by throwing the expulsion in for her. It is unfortunate because - like you said - she doesn't seem malicious.

I could tell you the same thing ("re-read my posts") and that you're blatantly wrong. I don't really want to debate back and forth beyond where we've gone since we're just reiterating at this point (I feel like your missing a basic fact and

You're saying I need to apologize. That shows me you're offended. I don't have the quote on me, but it's online. Google more if you care to see it. If you don't want me to speak for you, that's fine. I'm just saying most women in general wo

Thanks for the input and keeping the conversation going. I respect you have your opinion but I want to address some points (just to specify, and you're of course entitled to your opinion either way): I'm not putting her at a higher standard

I agree with what you're saying and also sorry for butting in :P (I was a bit confused). Adria definitely doesn't deserve what is happening to her. I think the reason a lot of people lack sympathy is because her situation is like her being

Thanks for explaining this :). There had to be a good reason as to why Microsoft would approach IE5 this way and I was wondering why.

I'm not trying to demonize her. People harassing her online are inappropriate and should apologize as well (but probably won't because they're anonymous cowards). The men were technically violating the conference's code of conduct and have

I was wondering the same thing the other day. I think she's hiding out and probably not sure about her next move. I don't know her at all but I emailed her to tell her that she has done lots of good and will be forgiven if she explains wher

Oops sorry, I am not talking about prisoner recidivism so perhaps recidivism was not the word for me - I just meant that these crimes are becoming more repetitive as time goes on. As for the second sentence, Canada doesn't have America's gu

I agree with you 100%. Fear shouldn't rule us, but in a gun culture I suppose that's hard to escape and that makes me so sad for those 2 little girls in the picture using their backpacks as a shield. I'm from Canada and so I don't really un

If Jason Collins is reading this: Good for you Jason. It takes serious guts to admit to that in the athletics field. You have helped pave the path and change closed-mindedness and therefore should be proud. :)

It was hard for me to grasp your point from your previous post. Sorry, I just didn't realize the tone of it and I took it as sarcasm (didn't mean to offend you, if I did by chance).

Another option for getting a web color scheme: http://webcolourdata.com/ It shows a color profile for a specific web site you search for. Obviously, taking a web site's entire color scheme wouldn't be wise. I just use it for getting color

Thanks, that makes sense. The shorter the slang the easier for them to slur the words out of their mouths.

Is a bro equal to a drunk idiotic party boy? If so, female nerds don't like them then either :)

I understand the author as a fellow woman in I.T. (programmer). I never fit in with the gossipy fashionista crowd either. I was a total geek in the library. I don't wear the geeky t-shirts though. I like to wear pencil skirts and kick my hi

I can see where you're coming from. Suicide, and death in general, in someone's youth when they've been very productive and successful seems to immortalize them forever in that moment. Some people romanticize that, but it's illusory. Anyway

I don't think he's being idolized because he committed suicide. He's idolized because of who he was and what he accomplished. He still deserves recognition even though he committed suicide and his recognition isn't based on his suicide.

Chris is just awesome. What a good way to get everyone interested and involved in space exploration! There's so many big questions, but the little questions (like this one) are so interesting too.

I want to add too that sexual harassment happens in all industries and it's a separate issue. Most guys in IT are not like that. I have dealt with this problem prior to IT as well. Certain men need to learn how to take a hint ... if some

I essentially agree with you. Here's my input on the "need more women"/"female unfriendly" work environment in IT debate: There's nothing wrong with working with and coding with only men. That's been my only experience so far as a noob who'

Your welcome =) Btw, the standard at my school is to do 5 hours as sign up, then do one hour tutoring sessions (and sometimes the odd two hour session). It's kind of nice so you have a commitment and people will be more likely to show up an

I have not tutored but I can offer you my experience from being tutored. My classmate tutored me in C++ last year. He was part of a peer tutor program at my school. Things I liked: -Flexibility in hours to meet up -Signing up for a

I agree it would have been more tasteful to exclude the commercials prior to the video about the Boston Marathon. I can see how it would be distressing to sit and wait for a commercial to end when you are fearing for the safety of someone y

Making sure a certain % of speakers are women is ridiculous. I'm a woman and a programmer and I'd be offended they just threw a few women on to even it out vs. to make sure the best of the best speakers are there. If some happen to be women

I agree with jhacks. I'm sure you will be successful with a few changes. Good luck and good job asking for constructive criticism (...it's a smart idea people unfortunately often shy away from).

If I were you, I'd get a piece of paper and a pen and write a pro/con columned list. It will help you get your thoughts together. I think the basis of a decision for freelancing vs. the job offer should be about your happiness and which one
