Correct. Women are equals, there's no reason for them not to be. But until people stop encouraging such a divide, I don't see anything changing.

It would mean more or less an exit to Nintendo's hardware business. Plus, they're sitting on piles of money, so they're not exactly in a hurry.

I'll admit I side with the poster a bit, and I'd definitely agree with the former. The problem is that "women in tech" presentation don't try to fix the root-cause of the issue by giving "men in tech" any

Pretty much. The truth is, unless your company serves Internet security careerists or people impassioned about Internet privacy, your customers do not care. The company I work for has absolutely no intent of dropping Microsoft products in l

From your article: We have something over a million servers in our datacenter infrastructure They do not have a million data centers, they have a combined million servers in their datacenters.

Allow the voter access to an installer/reinstaller which you can check the md5 of? I'm not a security expert, how effective could that be in providing this kind of verification?

Playing the devil's advocate: Shareholders want reasoning behind such large changes. It's really nothing more than describing where MSoft has been and what its strengths are We will do this by leveraging our strengths. We have po

Coming in late here, but DotA's difficulty coupled with its focus on spectating any game, including professional tournaments, provides an amazing viewer experience. It's really one of, if not the best in my opinion, game to watch

If there was ever a time to say it, it's now: video games.

Not quite, but I get what you're saying for sure. I think jacquesm said it well in his reply to me that you're more testing the "contracts between two pieces of code right at the interface", and it shouldn't be any

I'd imagine this is similar to "internal" in C#. If so, that still doesn't equate to being private, as other objects can see them within the package/assembly. To the outside world this is fine, of course, however it

This is one thing that has irked me a little bit as I've gotten more involved with TDD and unit testing in general: the logic in many of my unit tests is near duplicate logic that is implemented within my application. My thought is tha

Most learning curves I've seen actually imply the reverse, with time on the y-axis and knowledge on the x-axis. In that case, a learning curve is a sort of visual hill with a steepness indicating difficulty of progression.

It's very embarrassing that this is the kind of news reporting that accumulates wide viewership in America. Rather than learning anything, we'd prefer to just be wowed with an explosion. I'm really hoping that Al Jazeera&#x27

I think you're right, this article is concerned with determining how much ice has melted since the last glacial maximum, not how much more will melt.

As someone who just purchased a car at a dealer: it really is. I'm majorly hoping that Tesla paves the way to change that. Once prices come down to the ~$30k range and a larger percentage of consumers have the option of buying through

'Jarring' is different from 'subtle'. Jarring implies that the transition between states is abrupt and confusing, nothing about how obvious of a transition it is. In fact, in order to not be jarring, a transition shoul

A very poorly written article. Unfortunate because until now I have enjoyed a lot of The Atlantic's content. Dude, not even the President of the United States can get away with that kind of thing. Not to mention it was written to be

I believe he may have been implying that the cause is somehow linked to an outside agency, which in the case of Bitcoin discussions usually implies a government body somewhere.

I was actually surprised reading that statement given Rails' maturity. When the large AD vulnerability was announced and many people were caught in the open for a while I had assumed there were a large number of people running version

Prime example of why storing papers behind paywalls is a bad idea. I can't read anything linked. The authors then invoke Faraday's law H r E= i! 0 and conclude that the integral on the left side of Eq.(2) is identical to the fir
