He would have better odds putting the dollar on the roulette table and just letting it ride to riches.
It's not that gambling has poor returns, it's that there are much MUCH better bets to be made. Including entertainment value of gambling in the picture makes the lottery an even worse bet. No free drinks, no scantily clad waitresses etc
By my read you never got the most educational language, C.
IMHO the first language doesn't really matter, but the second and third have to be C and assembler, or the student will never be comfortable 'down and dirty' with the silicon.
C should always come before C++. Learning pointers and OO in one bite is too much for most.
I think you are thinking of the R8 engine. Which is Italian.
Granting VW has done some brain dead things on their water cooled cars. The first step in replacing the brake master cylinder on a new 'beetle' is 'remove the front bumper...'
It's like they realized all the old jokes about English cars. At least there are no Lucas electrics.
Midlands kids also speak a dialect, fire plug is a common synonym. They also speak 'standard English', as should everybody. The kid should have lost points for vocabulary.

Talked the talk my ass. They nationalized industries and threatened to nationalize others to get what they wanted.
In the 1930s 'capitalist' was code for 'Jewish bankers'.
I will grant that Fascist nations are hard to tell apart from Corporatist nations, but that doesn't change that they got there from opposite sides.
Our schools do a good job with the top 75% of students. Right through high school.
It's our morons that bring down the average. European and Asian schools are apparently better at forcing the slow ones to learn something.
It's a voluntary tax. If they don't want to pay, they can find a better game to play.

We're all laughing at you, you math genius.
Generally no. The 'split winnings' factor kills it.
He's a comic.
I just hope he remains funny, unlike Bill Maher.
I think he's trying a bingo joke.
Which is unfortunate. The last funny bingo joke was in flying circus "howsy, howsy'.
The people bad at math are being taxed when they try to do math. (see the dude upthread who thinks one lottery ticket is a good idea).
How do we tax people bad a music only when they try to play? Just tax disco, country and rap music acts?
Who did those studies? 90% of statistics are lies.
DC is not just down to overhead. It's broken and they don't even want to fix it. Same as NYC. They just want more money to not fix anything.
Good joke. But gambling and drinking are sins that were added by the anti-fun brigade at a much later date. Catholics are fine with both.
No.
It's the best possible tax. One on people bad at math.
Nazis were socialists. Too bad for your argument.

One of the downsides of making everybody a criminal is there is no longer a reason to attempt to remain legal. You're doomed anyhow so fuck it.
Just don't get caught. It's all any of us have.
At least I usually know when I'm breaking the law and keep my head on a swivel. Most law abiders break the law by accident and will be blindsided.
I had to look up you comment history.
Too bad you aren't consistent.
Idiocracy is happening everywhere. China, USA, Europe, Africa etc. The dumber you are the more kids you have.
99% of which have had to be rescued from their own or neighboring out of control socialist governments in the last 100 years.
Hobos ride the rails.
You are thinking of bums.
You need to examine why you are repulsed by facts.
How much effect does the CP have in vacuum?

And happy giftmas to you. Christians are minority that wants to dictate.
Expected...perhaps.
They should all get used to disappointment.
I don't need an excuse to ignore laws.
