My great mentor taught me that every time someone might have a blank face at what you say, look at it as an opportunity for learning. Most people love it when you get excited and say "yeah, memset is this awesome way of getting data ready t

I love this Éduouard recording of 'Gamme de la Voix'. You can really hear the singer go out of key on the 'mi' and 'sol', it's that precise. Seeing music visualized for the first time must have been as wondrous as seeing a Michelin map.

They do this in Central America and I've always found it comforting, except when it's been a long flight and I can't find my ticket.

Seems like a good business opportunity for someone to open a software-selling business in all 50 states, take .5% of sales plus add necessary tax depending on buyer address and deal with the sales tax. I really hope it doesn't come to this.

There are very few women who wouldn't like a nanny or part-time help if it were affordable. We used to live with our extended families and children need a lot of attention. Evolution of our fantastic childhood development went hand-in-hand

That's a really good comment you make, and in the exact spirit to the article. She's right - you do have to just decide not to 'play the game'. We, as a society, can make a difference here by hiring parents with young children or ready to h

She's speaking theoretically. But it's the cold fact for women: have kids before you're 40 and disrupt your career (if you're going for an intensive career where goals must be met) or don't have (your own) kids. I'm a woman and whatever way

The question at hand is addressing loneliness: creating a computerized gaming method for the elderly may be a nice thing to do, but Tuesday Night Bingo creates a community event that can be looked forward to. So to add to your comment, I ca

I spent a lot of time with the elderly as a kid due to my community structure. Somewhere into becoming a teenager your interests change and playing checkers isn't interesting anymore but I still consider those who are alive as good friends

Looking at the dresses (girl here), it's kind of awkward to see the compressed width on the next image to come up. If you can adjust the transform to make it look more natural then it would be more fun to use. Happy to look at never-ending

This is also true for women - in my life many of my friends who are over 40 are getting their PhDs and doing incredible research. Also see composers and painters: so much of our great works in history are done by older people. Perhaps becau
