The build process sounds horrible. I can't believe there is such a difference between build systems in Google and Microsoft.
Re:Why Aren't There More Women Programmers? on Thursday August 22, 2013 @03:03AM (#6255569)
I would say women who study computer science get a huge boost in attractiveness. Every year there are around 100 boys and 2-5 girls in first year of computer science at my university. As a computer science student you don't see many other girls, so after a while the girls can choose whoever they want. To be honest it's really sad, there are girls who realized that they can date two guys at the same time. The guys know about each other.

The county proxy is there to ensure that the staff and students can’t access porn on the school network. It also filters for violence, extremism, swearing, social networks, alcohol, smoking, hacking, gaming and streaming video. Ironically, if you were to perform a Google search for “proxy settings OSX”, the top results would all be blocked because you used the word ‘proxy’ and that is a filtered word.

That was the most interesting part for me. It's crazy that people are ok with it.

I do live in Czech Republic and it's not illegal to download music and movies. However, sharing is illegal, so e.g. torrents are illegal.

That was fun. The challenge is not very hard.
Seznam used to be much better in searching czech terms. There aren't many differences now. Many people have seznam as their homepage because it contains news, e-mail and search.
