CS culture is American male nerd culture. It's the culture of 20th century sci-fi, Dungeons and Dragons, video games, popular science, memorising digits of pi, tech gadgets, of course computers and coding.
Intrestingly most of my CS profs were unfamiliar with that culture. Maybe because they weren't Americans.
The European Parliament and the European Commission have much less power than the American federal government. We don't have the equivalent of FBI, CIA or NSA. We don't have a common army, or a federal income tax.
In my university (not in US) textbooks counted a lot for promotion, so basically every prof wrote their own, even if a satisfactory one already existed.
In reality only financial savings and income are taxed, and the final percentage applied is variously disguised as "capital gains tax", or other quibbles.
Real-estate is already taxed in most places in America. Most European countries also tax cars based on their engine's size.
Woman chess players can compete in all the tournaments where men can play, but the best woman chess player isn't on the same level as the best male chess player, therefore they can earn more money in woman only tournaments.
"... At last all the nuns meowed together every day at a certain time for several hours together." The meowing went on until neighbors complained and soldiers were called, threatening to whip the nuns until they stopped meowing.
If they think that wireless technology came after wired technology, they are very much mistaken. Perhaps they should focus on actually learning first. [...] For those as stupid as they are: over-the-air television came before cable. radio came before itunes.
Maybe you should focus learning first. The first news broadcast was wired, not wireless. It started operation 20 years before the invention of radio.
There's also Rawbots, a robot building game where you can design your own robot, program it, and battle against other robots in arenas that you can design yourself. Multiplayer isn't done yet, but they're working on it. The robot building/programming and level editing features already work and are quite fun.

Or go with Centos, which is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and has free as in beer binaries.

This is how it was generated.

Negative, both are the same thing. And it's called deflation.
By "stack" I meant the underlying Javascript, DOM, SVG animation parts of HTML.
It burns, but usually doesn't explode unlike gasoline.
You can also view this as an attack on Silverlight. At least with HTML a bigger part of the stack is open.
On the other hand it's much better at translating idioms or expressions where the component words have a lot of different meanings.
It pretty much sounds like a dumbed down Wordnet.

Though the list key doesn't work either; they don't have the same effect as right click with the mouse.
Doesn't work in Google Chrome.
PowerShell is definitely a step in this direction.
Except it's multitasking, and can handle more than 640kB of memory without arcane magic.

That's some good anime material right there.

There's no point to steal fiberglass either as it's very hard to recycle.
The government also pressured Exxon to use chemical dispersant that likely caused more harm that the oil itself.
Do you have a source for that?
None of them go and live in the wilderness, off the land, eschewing all modern technology
Except the Unabomber. But I don't think this weakens your argument.
I would argue that OSS software falls under the "advancement of science" clause.

I'd like to watch him try that with LISP. Though it might work perfectly with COBOL.
