You've been giving valuable insight in these posts, but that page isn't asking for begging, the message is simply "be a legit student".

Abiding by licenses is a big deal, and as far as the article is concerned VMWare haven't. I'm anti-GPL, anti-RMS, but find it as obnoxious as anyone else when a company not only goes with breaking the GPL, but admits it and disca

I admittedly do that - every now and then typing 'time' into google, knowing it goes beyond being a search engine. I also sometimes put in e.g. 'starbucks' and I don't have to qualify the search any further, google

Thank you. Like me you probably read the article and wondered why blame for the incident instantly bypassed the kid with the phone. (before someone replies, I know that educating the whole media-consuming public is easier said than done.)

Well, in the absence of your followup post, your second line about priors could just be interpreted as 'redefine merit to include being female'. Of course that isn't what you meant about changing priors, and I'll be hone

The first paragraph is her premise. On first read, I uncharitably dismissed it - "yeah, tech companies should be tripping over themselves to achieve diversity so they can take advantage of this.... uh, correlation with.... a hot 35% bo

I naturally read the title's GB as GiB (making only one SI prefix), but I don't hold anything against other people being more precise readers.

*M GB M is well-known in headlines as million. A GB is something people appreciate the size of, TB not as much, and PB is definitely not in most people's vocab.

The money was my analogy to that opportunity. Admittedly it's ambiguous.

I'll admit to learning from your definition of nation just now. Sucks that I went well into adulthood never learning the proper meaning of a basic word. On the bright side, google has just given me the green light to continue using &#x
