I think there is some truth in what you are saying, but if that is true then people without jobs getting SNAP benefits would tend toward buying healthier food. That isn't the general trend I see in the people I've worked with. Mos

Good point. If we feel we need to "fix" the number of women in CS, we also need to "fix" the number of women in nursing, accounting, education, etc.

Having extensively used the public transportation system in a number of US cities, NYC has been by far the best place to try to get around by subway. Is there another US city where you think the subway works much better?

Keep in mind this wasn't an analysis of whether people liked men or women in the lead role. It was basically pointing out that one statement was a little more likely to be more strongly positive than the other. So you think asking what

Well I think some of it has to do with the fact that language is not completely symmetrical (there may be a better word). For example, the following sentences: 1. They went to college. 2. They went to the University of Phoenix. The fact you

It is fairly common for newer versions of OS X to break software that worked on previous versions. If you try to use Photoshop 6 on a modern version of OS X it isn't going to work. I think this makes the chip transition less painful be

This is what I suspect as well. Having been a teen, it seems very likely that a later start time wouldn't help some people who would just stay up later. Now maybe not as many people would do that, but then the issue is more that they j

I'm curious how they determined that the 1% of cases were gender and race-based and not something else. With such a small number, it seems like it would be very easy for the variations to be caused by other factors. It is probably good
