In the 21st century, you're expected to have a workforce that reflects the gender, racial and ethnic diversity--unless of course you're in the fashion industry, the rap industry, nursing, elementary eduction, or any other field that is heavily slanted in favor of anything but white guys.
In short, you're never supposed to hire white guys (unless they're gay, transgendered, or bisexual).
GENETICALLY ENGINEERED???? That's the boogeyman under the bed!! We must grow organic and all be vegans. If the poor Africans are starving, they just need to go to their local Whole Foods and buy some food.
Well, of course. Maine is still not allowed on the internet. It's unfair, but it's the only way to make sure that Stephen King never has access to a blog.
If students are capable of handling AP math, they should be able to handle AP CS--since the way most CS college programs are run, they're basically the same thing.
Watching one moderate regime after another in the middle east either falling completely, or having to fight a nasty civil war to survive, is pretty convincing evidence that this ain't no minor fluke. Even secular stalwart Turkey is has been swung hard towards becoming an Islamist state in recent years.
But you can keep telling yourself whatever you wish.
Rest assured, the second they perceive Google as a real threat, there will be a bevy of laws passed to obstruct this sort of deal. Just like they've already passed laws in 30 states banning municipal broadband.
If you want Google fiber in your town, you need to convince your city to lay its own dark fiber as much as possible. Google has thus far went to the cities with the most existing dark fiber already in place.
Yes, but unlike the KKK's version of Christianity, radical Islam seems to be spreading today--fast. Forty years ago, or even twenty years ago, I would certainly have accepted that radical Islam was a relatively insignificant and obscure movement within the religion as a whole. Today, with radical numbers, influence, and power growing rapidly every year, I'm not so sure I buy that anymore.
That's because the predominant narrative in the U.S. since the beginning of the Cold War has been that a combination of democracy and capitalism is some sort of cure-all for every country's ills.
They're not. Just ask the people of Iraq if they're better off with democracy today than they were with a autocratic dictator.
I think a much more apt comparison would be to the French Revolution: a popular revolt against the establishment that ended up with lots of public violence, several failed democratic regimes, and ultimately led to the rise of a dictator who put down any further revolts by killing and arresting the protestors.

With wireless data caps are already so low, what do they care?

Well if you need some, just make some more! Jeez, I thought this was a discussion board for smart people.
My cableco not only requires a cablecard, but also a Switched Digital Video adapter as well. And they charge you for each.
In which country are Africans starving?
Sudan, Chad, Nigeria, Zimbabwe...should I go on or were you just being a smartass?

Film at eleven!
That would be because CS is a branch of Math.
Yeah, that's what I just said. You apparently didn't take AP English.
Considering it's Seattle, there's probably a bunch of hipsters somewhere arguing that dial-up has a cleaner, more pure sound than broadband.
If you're thirsty, do you really care if the only organization bringing you water is non-profit or not?

Just like Gary and Mike on WZXR, 103.5, THE BOMBER SQUAD!!
Compared the the telco/cableco industry, Google's lobbyists aren't even a fart in a windstorm.
Here's a map.
No, it has to be available for lease or purchase. FIOS cities and municipal fiber cities like Chattanooga don't count.

Who needs to compete when you have lobbyists?

So what's the point of this being a "Web" language?
The make Chrome even more attractive when Google introduces their new web language?
Translation: Google is about to introduce yet another web language into this Tower of Babel
My favorite is when he goes on location to pretend he's in real danger--with his large security team told to stay off camera, of course.
