I like to think that everyone thinks that the grass is greener on the other side. In my case, I have never been 'average' or 'normal', and I always envied the Sarahs and Johns of the world. Then I realized that often &#x

I'm confused. Is PowerShell 'recognized' as a shell? I thought only unix and unix-like shells would be covered. I wonder what the technical definition of a shell is though. (genuinely curious, not trying to be snarky)

I think the issue is an issue of education. When I see the 'green' colour followed by the word 'secure' when visiting a website using chrome, I know that this does not mean immediately that I have to trust the site. I pr

I think that you should add: "Listen to your parents when you have to make minor life decisions". Way too many people either try too hard to please their parents, or ignore their advice entirely. With time, you learn to not swing

You are not necessarily wrong, but I think it is important to try to understand what the comment meant. Perhaps some specific event in her life justifies her position. In literally terms, certain authors are simply better than others. But t

“Real courage is when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.” That is one of my favorite quotes of all times, specifically taking into account the setting of the book.

Oh, at least Canada is explicitly named. For many businesses, "north america = USA". I haven't really tried 8tracks but most streaming media have a very limited J-pop selection and no South American genres (cumbia, waynos, et

Don't. I'm seriously thinking about moving to Toronto right now. I have a Soft. Eng. degree from McGill and I can't find any business in this city that will pay me minimum wage.

I also do not speak English at home, nor do most of my peers and I found the opposite to be true: it is easier to do math problems and find spelling mistakes for those of us who do not have English as a mother tongue. I'm pretty sure I

I think that language is part of what makes us human. At the very least, the small imperfections in our communication end up as awesome parts of our culture. I would be more interested in an universal real-time translator. It is 2016, it is

I think that the internet, by its own nature, self-segregates people. I might not have data to back this up, but it is apparent that people go online to ratify their own views, rather than to listen to others. I have also left reddit, mostl

This is wrong. Factually. Speak with any bank at all, paying your credit card debt will never, ever hurt your credit score. At least here in Canada. source: I know plenty of people that pay their credit card every month, with 800+ scores.
