We know what godzilla was about because the creators have told us so. Also, it's rather obvious given the context and the environment in which godzilla was created.
Me too. High five!
> My goal is 5-8 more classes for a second degree in math (major).
But why? Wouldn't it make more sense to go for a master in computer science? Are you going to use it for work. Otherwise, aren't you going to "lose it" anyways? Also, is your job paying for the degree or are you paying out of pocket?
What? This comment makes no sense. Also, it isn't condescension. I'm educating you. You probably thought your professors and your dean were condescending to you. Right? Everyone who knows more than you, I suspect most people, are condescending to you? Got a chip on your shoulder?
> I won't deign to respond to anything else you say
Who cares? Then don't.
> but you should understand how encompassing software engineering is
Does it sound like I don't. I know what CS is and I know what software engineering is. I know enough not to use those terms interchangeably.
All you've shown is that you don't what what computer science is and you don't know what software engineering is. Instead of playing the victim, have some humility and take this opportunity to learn. Something you should have done when you were in college.
Also, you sound like a "jobless english/journalism major who turned to being a 'software developer' for a job". I can't think of any self respecting "hacker" or a developer who can't learn web development ( at least to a moderate level ) on their own. It's an easy tell to actual developers and hackers.
It's called computer science, not web development for a reason.
> I ask sincerely just because when I pushed for change in curriculum, I basically was shown the door that led to me dropping out and (thankfully) landing a gig at a startup that opened up another (better) door for me.
Okay. Good for you. But what's your point? Are you saying that universities should be a "jobs program" rather than an institution for higher learning?
> I ask sincerely just because when I pushed for change in curriculum
"I am not a CS degree holder. But I did attempt a masters in software engineering". So you don't know what computer science is and yet you feel qualified enough to recommend a curriculum change?
Are you going to denounce your mechanics professor for not incorporating "changing tires" into his curriculum? It's unbelievable that your comment is the top voted comment here. The quality of comments on "hacker" news...
That clearly that hasn't worked has it? Also, are you arguing against term limits?
Having to get elected is reason not to enforce financial discipline because people don't vote for those who promise financial discipline. People vote for those who promise more stuff.
What a naive comment.
Not true. America was successful regardless of immigration. For example, for much of the 20th century, the US banned immigration from most of the world. Look up the history of US immigration bans. It's quite enlightening
> It is due to America being a nation of immigrants that we can do this.
America is not and never has been a nation of immigrants. At no time in US history has immigrants represented anywhere close to the majority of the US population. America was always a nation of native born americans. Not immigrants.
The standard talking points we've heard many times from those wishing to push their narrative as "truth".
> and AI is well-placed to address that.
So censorship and propaganda on steroids.
Isn't this a good thing? Otherwise, what incentive is there for financial discipline?
> The problem with the USA "empire" is that for a trading empire to work you need a plan, and stick to it.
Have stuck with it for over 75 years. Not too shabby. Also why is empire in quotes?
> China has been quietly debt trapping a whole bunch of nations that have strategic things they need.
I know the US and Europe has for centuries. Which ones has china "debt trapped"? Or are we sticking to the propaganda that china helping develop other nations is "debt trapping".
> Something neither the president or congress have the ability to do.
Neither the president nor congress sets the "plan" for the US. Do you really think trump gets to decide geopolitics? Do you really think congress decides the direction of the nation? Or do you think they listen to the elites who fund and control them? One has to be extraordinarly naive to think that a superpower with nukes is run by the masses.
The president and congress sells the plan decided by the powerful to the masses. It's why they exist. They don't plan or decide anything. Most of their time is spent raising money for elections. When do you think trump or congress has the time to develop any expertise in anything.
