I like to think I'm important enough to have a dedicated international spy agent, who watches me poop through my phone camera with that pegasus spyware.Let me know if you are a spy agent who has watched me poop, Cheers!It's so comical to think about, I would enjoy having a beer with my spy agent watching me poop via my phone.I wonder how much money has been spent dedicated to the poop patrol.
By the way, the nazis were successful because they used censorship. If you want to support censorship, beware that this is what enabled the nazis.
Don't you think it's selfish to shame your friends if they decide they don't want to be part of a predatory social media company?
They are pocketing millions of dollars, but stomp their foot on the community. They are only hiring 5 more people, despite getting millions and millions of dollars. The people behind this project are not good well intentioned people. The language itself is great, due to the thankless work of many contributors who never got paid. The people behind the language are selfish and they intentionally harmed some Julia language projects, such as Grassmann.jl by banning valuable contributors who had good intentions and spent thousands of hours of their time contributing to the community.
I just quit using Julia language and am switching to Wolfram language.
Well, I still might use Julia personally in the future, but my days of contributing to the community are over.
The julia community is thankless, and the people at Julia computing are mean spirited and they think it's acceptable to harm people having good intentions (like me), having contributed thousands of hours of free time to help people on their forum and releasing my own packages used by thousands of people.
Julia Computing just raised a bunch of money, but they are just pocketing it for themselves while they stomp their foot on people they perceive as unworthy.
Yea, it's a good language, but the people behind it are very selfish and harmful to the free software community.

yes, the number of students has to go down, very few people want to take these 400 person classes, these classes are only taken by people because some random department needs funding, so they require people to take classes they don't need.
I've been saying this for years, but academia is filled with stupid administrators who are incapable of evolving the state of teaching / learning because their salary depends on having administrative bloat.
That's pretty much my stance, the universities are obsolete garbage. I did give them another shot and took as many math classes as possible, but they screwed up and drove me away.
I now do all my math research independent, as the universities are unable to facilitate my math research activity.

The CCP can't build jet engines, while the Germans invented jet aircraft ... so no, I don't believe your claim is correct.

Isn't there a "not interested" button on YouTube? That might fix your issue.
Killing people to achieve a technology is unacceptable and unethical ... maybe in nazi germany you could pull that off, but I think you'd eventually be charged with crimes against humanity.
Unfortunately, musk wants to present himself as if he is some kind of Tony Stark character like in the iron man movie. He also says the he doesn't care about college degrees, but I bet that all the people at SpaceX have the necessary degrees and are not drop outs, so that's probably also not really true about him either. The Tesla car company was also not founded by him but by someone else who actually engineered a car. I will give him some credit for SpaceX though, I think the company is doing well, but I doubt he is directly involved in engineering.
Well, I have to disagree. I don't believe your story has anything to do with you being a woman in that situation. There are plenty of male people who also don't have a network and who get taken advantage of and have their ideas stolen without credit. This happens all the time on a daily basis and has absolutely nothing to do with gender. It's a real problem, but in my impression it seems to be a quite standard problem with humanity and not gender.
Facebook is stupid, but in your case, you can't really blame facebook for your choice in friends and your friend's choices.
Good comment, but I don't necessarily think that I completely lack communication skills. Perhaps I am too skilled at communicating, and people just don't like what I'm communicating to them. Of course, that is also context dependent, as nobody can be an expert communicator in every possible context.
Maybe that flawed logic / grammer you point out is itself a symptom of what the article is discussing (failure of education).
