I didn't say it is not racist, and I didn't say it is not a problem. Public universities, especially, must use objective criteria. Students need to be able to control their own destiny through hard work. That's a basic princi

Not true. Take University of Washington for example. They ask for a "diversity essay". They define diversity as "diverse in cultural backgrounds, experiences, values and viewpoints." [1] [1] https://admit.wash

I don't think that's the case. Name a university where they ask for diversity essays in order to reduce the percentage of whites. The reverse is often true. For example, many universities use it to control asian population.

This is all it takes: dotnet publish -c Release Then in Dockerfile add this: COPY bin/Release/net5.0/publish . Is that hard?

Right. I have Visual Studio installed. I don't need a container to build the application, I only need it for deployment.

Does it support docker running on MacOS M1, or Raspberry Pi? I need both of those. What about the dozens of features supported by Dockerfile? If you need even one of those features (for example, VOLUME), then you're back to writing Doc

Australia takes in twice as many immigrants per year, compared to the US, as a percentage of their population. Canada almost 4 times as many. Singapore, New Zealand and Hong Kong too take in more immigrants than the US.

Whether React's implementation is functional or not has no relevance to the question of whether applications written using React are functional.
