Modern feminism is rooted in this idea that women should be doing things, specific things that feminists decided they should be doing (having specific jobs, voting for certain political parties, eschewing families, championing the right causes), and if they aren't doing those things then they must be brain-washed idiots or evil self-haters. I reject this.
I am by no means a feminist; but this sounds like patronizing, paternalistic bullshit. News flash: woman have brains and they do what they want. They don't want to code. Deal with it.
Don't give them what they ask for. Give them what they need.
Following this, I am 99% sure that a spreadsheet is sufficient for their actual need. Don't waste time, money, and resources on pie-in-the-sky vaporware. Just get it done.
There is nothing saying you have to be involved in the bickering. I own an iPhone, and I don't give two shits about Samsung vs. iPhone. You don't have to join a suicide cult to get religion.
The best IT guy I've ever known was an Air Force guy in Saudi Arabia who managed our UNIX servers from a tent on a desert base. I'm embarrassed to admit he could also code circles around me, and often fixed bugs in my code while I slept.
I started.NET development about 12 years ago and stopped following C++ for that time; previous to that I coded purely in C, both professionally and in my off-time. At that time, I got the impression that C was faster and less prone to quirky, inscrutable API's than C, so I was in agreement with Linus on the decision to remain pure-C.
How is C++ doing these days with respect to compiler optimization and complexity of available API's?
For hypochondriacs (or the modern variant, "webochondriac", that spends hours on end diagnosing themselves on WebMD) this is the worst. possible. thing.
It might be that they are intimidated by my stylish wardrobe furnished by TJ Max.
And we'd still be wearing neon polyester shirts under our cool-ass denim jackets.

Also, polylactic acid will kill your child just as surely as a bloodthirsty jew.
A vacuous tautology, then.
FWIW, he didn't invent the LED. He invented the red-visible LED. Scientists at Texas Instruments invented the infrared LED first.
No. They are both cetaceans, though.
"Hey buddy. Hey pal. You wanna come swim in my tank? Come jump on over, my tasty friend. We have lots of fish to fill your delicious belly."

I would prefer a car analogy.
What is engineering but applied math and physics?
Speaking as a non-libertarian, I don't think you know what a libertarian is.

For every anecdote, there's a counter-anecdote.
Coincidentally, I have Cueball's haircut.
Bullshit. I can still see the pixels. I have an eye for these things that most people don't.
Oh yeah? Then explain why the first bible is in King's English, why don'tcha?
"Mooooom! Barclay is stuck in the RoomAlive again!"
Gah, I need to stop clicking through "preview". Sorry about that.

Thanks, AC. Then it makes good sense that they have a stockpile, I assume for making vaccine.
But haven't we eradicated polio? Of what use, then, is cultivating concentrated polio?
