There are some people who really are awful to women, and they're often (but not always) really awful to work with in other ways too. Finding ways to get them to either improve or get out is tricky because they exist in the same career ladders as people who want a decent place to work.
The only way that matters is ability. People with it are "awful" to people without because they have to pick up the slack while the people without it play social politics to maintain their career.
No, women make up a very tiny percentage of programmers - an even smaller a percentage of programmers capable of contributing meaningful code (which the open source community is particularly big on.)
These people who routinely advocate for mass surveillance of the rest of us are outraged at being surveilled themselves? The arrogance and/or cognitive dissonance required must be astronomical.
One of the many reasons to vote for Trump. Sometimes you just have to roll the dice because all knowns are more terrible than the worst that can come of random chance.
Because we live in a society filled with propaganda telling people that anyone who takes such actions is a bad person and not worth listening to - the majority of people either believe that or believe that the majority of people believe that so the net effect is nill.
Every major cloud provider has been compromised, most not in several years but it has happened and chances are it will again. They cover it up as best they can.
Why do they expect information to be conserved in the first place? Information loss is common and you don't even need black holes. A simple example is matter-antimatter collision which turns into two photons, so you lose information about the identify of the original particles.
My first liquid cooled computer was also the first computer I built. I had to take it apart and fix leaks at least once a month - it was higher maintenance than a Japanese sports car.
Musk drives engineers at Tesla and Space X like slave laborers, but is still bound by labor regulations. On Mars there would be no such laws and allowing decreased communication would ensure recruitment stays high.
Also, when he gets raped in jail he'll probably get AIDs.
Since he will also be poor from having all his wealth taken away he won't be able to afford the AIDs treatment he hiked the price on.
Mars will just be Musk's private slave labor camp with no oversight and every system controlled by himself. Just look at how the runs Tesla and SpaceX on the ground - they're engineer meat-grinders people only go to for the sake of getting those names on their resume.
Also, it's a volcanic mountain. The big island is absolutely covered in barren volcanic land, there is nothing whatsoever special about that particular mound of rock aside from the scientific value. If they oppose what the scientists are willing to pay it is literally worthless.
This. They hate foreigners and despise being allowed to be a state. If a location is the best on Earth to increase the body of knowledge for all of Humanity send the fuckers daisy cutters if you have to but build the telescope.
Programming education should try to find people who have the aptitude to be good programmers and quickly weed out those who never will.
That's easy enough: Are you in a programming class? You will never be a good programmer. Did you start programming without a class? Congratulations, you are a programmer.

That's not what colleges are for. They are a place for people to socialize and build business connections for some, for others they are a scam to sucker them out of a lifetime worth of wages through student loans. They stopped being places of higher education the exact same time they started letting everyone in: there aren't as many smart people as are in college, not even close.

Are you expecting an SJW to clear up their strawomen?
No seriously, fuck them all until they die of anal bleeding.
STEM is the last place that has people who are intelligent. Keep the retards that are into political correctness out of it.
The author just happens to be a moron, like most people so virulently opposed to politicians.

Idiots hate people with Asperger's, this is a known fact. You are an idiot.
I think we should make the election like an SAT multiple choice test. There should be an choice "none of the above" . . . no Clinton, no Trump.
They would just take advantage of that to make Obama a king that never gets moved out of office.

No information is lost in that scenario.
Where smart people actually have a marginally better chance at success than elsewhere. Who'd have thought evolution is real..
But why male models?

The FAA instituted a policy that all private drones have to be registered by February 2016.

So get off their fucking mountain
Eat a dick. They don't have rights to the best location on Earth to build a telescope, all of Humanity does.
