As a Wisconsinite, I'm not sure I believe that there is a link between alcohol and lower obesity rates.

Re:Cal State L.A. turns the most low-income students into top earners

This is essentially what I was trying to get at. I think people have many misconceptions when it comes to different tiers of education, it might be a topic worth some research.

Seems like an odd thing for them to do. For me it came off as netflix either changing the branding or wanting to show off the font in a creative way.

I think more people that go to Ivies are hard workers then have so much natural ability that it doesn't require much work. Nowadays you have to be doing multiple extra curricular activities and qualifying for summer programs, etc.

Re:Would College Students Retain More If Professors Dialed Back the Pace?

My uni (Wisconsin), in the engineering program, apply some old philosophy of a ratio of time in class to time in lab. It's something like 50/50 or 40/60, I think a lot of students prefer it that way.

My machine org professor plans on teaching it this semester because employers in the area are preferring it. I was surprised by how many people knew it already.

Look at how rust changes when you select age. The younger people are the more they dislike it, and it even goes negative at the lowest bracket (and in total)

Wow I'm surprised by students really putting compensation down on the list of things that are important to them compared to professionals.

Clean Code I think is the best resource on readability. Your code self-documenting while following simple software principles is difficult but ideal.
