The worry is that you have too many developers who don't consider HTML/CSS/JS a proper stack for a "real" engineer and there refuses to learn it.

Maybe they mean it's not BGA?

There's basically nothing you can do besides notify their abuse desk and probably get ignored, because abuse desks pay little attention to one-off complaints like that. If they do get taken down, it'll be by one of the larger security companies who detect the page (for example, if that IP sends spam) and includes it in their feed of bad IP's to aruba.
In theory, anyone can be named "Chen", "Nguyen", or "Mwangi" but try instituting a policy banning those people from an internship program.
Is there any human rights issue that Apple will take a stand on?
$10k would barely get you a business class seat these days for long haul flights.

Why would companies need to change anything? Every engineering job gets hundreds of applicants. Its an employers' market.
Yeah, we believe you. wink wink nudge nudge.
Unless TLS 1.3 includes built-in stenography, it will do nothing for censhorship. Oppressive regions have historically used simple throttling/DoS to make encrypted protocols unusable.

The eggs and milk that aren't the most expensive ones at whole foods? Also, whey powder.

I went to Vegas November last year, albeit just for a weekend of fun, and I didn't experience any of this. I wouldn't have known there was a shooting if it wasn't for the fences around Mandalay Bay that we drove by on our way in.
When you can make $200k straight out of undergrad, yes, it is.
I think so -- Apple didn't remove VPN apps worldwide, only in China (someone correct me if I'm wrong).
Maybe Google is trying to get back into China and wants to show Winnie the Pooh that they are willing to play ball on the whole censorship thing.
Is this a joke?
who's debating that?
So you're claiming studios are $6000 and 1BR's are $9000? You can get a 1000 sqft for < $3000 within a 1 hour commute of SOMA.

Good, I hope this trend of shoving ML into SQL (instead of the other way around) continues. I always thought it was silly that every "data wrangling" system like Pandas and R needed to (poorly) re-invent SQL.
