That's surprisingly high! Although I'd assume the total number of people have IDs is greater than the count of those who have bank accounts since there are multiple activities which require IDs (only one being opening a bank accou

Let me rephrase: the majority of people in my society would _agree_ that requiring an ID card to vote is reasonable. That is true based on an observation of the status quo. Voting is also a right in Canada. In the US, being an imprisoned fe

This argument seems like grasping me to. How would one function in society at all without an ID? Opening a bank account, cashing a check, driving a car, visiting a doctor, taking a train or plane, going to court. These are all activities wh

It seems obvious to me that he's referring to the dichotomy of management (top-down) versus engineering (bottom-up). I think most people understand that businesses are indeed businesses. The point is that some development methodologies

Lemme guess, Scrum Master? Although those faux titles may be technically wrong, the use of capital-A Agile usually implies association with Agile the brand (the noun), not "agile as in agility". > That is so catastrophically fa

So WSJ specifically crafted feeds with left and right leaning sources to illustrate what exactly? That political differences exist? I don't think Facebook has much influence over the company you keep in meat space. Your real-life circl

This is bad advice. Theory is vastly more important in computer science and math. Given your logic, one will simply practice their way to linear algebra, machine learning or AI. Good luck with that. There's a giant toolbox of shortcuts
