However, she has a life. She's into about 50 things and simply doesn't have the time to obsess about tech and computers like a lot of geeky dweeb white men do, so she'll never be "the ultimate nerd".
None of my coworkers are ultimate nerds, probably because they have kids and keeping up with the kids is a challenge. Most of us have 20+ years of IT experience and paid our dues a long time ago.
In some STEM fields being an absolute dweeb with no life pays off and makes you more valuable to your employer than people that have actual stuff going on in their life.
It's very easy to get the young and the stupid to put in long hours. I did that as a video game tester for six years. Once I got into IT support, my employment contracts prohibited me from working overtime. Of course, I got paid more than a tester and made more in 40 hours than I did in 60+ hours as a tester..
Or you have a staff of Secret Service officers attempting to secure your safety.
At $1M to $3M per round. If Trump plays a game every five days for a year, the estimated cost (~$120M) will exceed the cost for eight years of Obama's golf games (~$90M).
I've also never worked with any known ex-cons in tech [...]
I recently found out that I previously worked with a confessed murderer who was arrested and charged with the crime that he committed as a teenager but was thrown out of court for lack of evidence.
[...] and are often discriminated against by asking questions like "Have you ever been convicted of a felony?" on applications.
I've always thought that the murderer I worked with got fired for being a douche bag. A coworker found an article on the Internet and forwarded the article to management. HR investigated the matter and fired the guy because he lied on the felony checkbox question. It was worded as: "Have you ever been arrested and/or charged with a felony?"
In the 20+ years of my technical career, I don't think ever worked with a black woman. White women, yes. Asian women, yes. Hispanic women, yes. But never black women.
I don't think President Trump has golfed that much, yet...
I found a different article (see below) that described the situation more precisely. Obama golfed every nine days in eight years. Trump golfed every five days for the first two months. Trump's golfing is twice the rate of Obama's golfing.
Look at that - free-market forces doing good for the environment
What free market? Fracking was made possible by the tax subsidies that the industry. Take away the tax subsidy and see what the free market does. For example, milk would be $10 per gallon without tax subsidies.
Fracking is probably the most environmentally beneficial advancement of the last 50 years[...]
Never mind the earthquakes in places that never had earthquakes and poisoned waste water filtering back into the water table.
Bannon appointed himself to the NSC by having Trump signed off on an executive order that he didn't read and didn't find out about until it got mentioned in the media. Your tax dollars at work.
On a related note, Trump had played twice as much golf in two months than Obama did in eight years.
That Obama didn't personally order a wiretap on Trump, as Trump has repeatedly alleged to distract from the fact that his advisers are in bed with the Russians. They got recorded as a matter of routine in the intelligence community.
Or the part where you seem to have a serious race and agism problem?
As white male I can't criticize other white males? That's like the black community criticizing Obama for talking about black males not being good fathers to their children. As younger person (47-years-old), it's not my place to tell my elders that they're wrong.
They have to find some way to distract from the fact that Susan Rice has likely committed multiple felonies and mass constitutional violations.
I overhead some old white guys gloating about that on the bus yesterday. However, Susan Rice have done nothing wrong. Whenever someone calls the Russian Embassy, every conversation gets recorded by the intelligence community. Too many Trump advisers are talking to the Russians.
Trade policies are garbage, Trumpcare was a joke and a drain on the working class, environmental policy...what environmental policy?
FTFY — Obama is no longer president.
Sure he helped the poor with free stuff but he also sent millions of working Americans in to poverty.
I'm still waiting to get my free iPhone from the government. The funny thing is Republicans talk about this all the time but no one can tell where I can sign up.
The election result proves it.
Winning 46% of the vote doesn't make for a mandate.
Majority of state legislatures, and governorships, majority in congress, presidency, and soon to be judical branches.I think not.
Not for long. Democrats dropped the ball and will correct their mistakes. The tide will change.
The republican party is just getting started.
If they can negotiate among themselves on a common agenda. The "repeal and replace" health bill failed because the Republicans spent seven years on "repeal" without giving any thoughts to "replace." As the recent health bill fiasco had shown, they don't have their shit together. Tax reform will be the same story.
His point was that the government need not be the primary driver in this change.
Who else is going to pay for this change? Industry will not if they can get away with doing business as usual. For example, the civilian electrical grid is vulnerable to EMP attacks. A well-known problem that no one industry wants to fix much less pay for.
If solar/wind are viable, then private industry, driven by concerned environmentalists, are absolutely free to go out and change the way we generate power.
Has the oil industry given up their tax subsidies?
Our electric companies aren't owned and run by the government.
No, but they're regulated by the government. If the government says, "coal bad, natural gas good," as it has been for decades, the industry will move towards liquid gas generators. One of the reason why coal is dying as an industry, and will continue to do so not matter what the Trump Administration does, is that natural gas is inexpensive and natural gas plants are replacing coal plants.
As a moderate conservative, I can reassure you that the Republican Party is already extinct. Just like the political dinosaurs before them, it'll take a while for the memo to circulate.
We live in a society where we are expected to provide for ourselves, exception being libtards, millennials, and Hitlery voters.
The same self-sufficient people who don't know that Social Society and Medicare are government programs that Republicans would love to eliminate and may get a chance to do so under Trump.
[...] and start working on environmentally friendly alternatives to fuel and coal.
Wind and solar? Oh, wait. That was a priority under Obama. Coal mining jobs are a priority for the Trump Administration, looking backward and not forward.
We can't walk 40 miles to work every day.
I and 40 other people take the express bus to travel 50+ miles per day.
In other news... The Sun will expand into a red giant, burning the inner planets to a crisp, and Jupiter will become the new Mercury in four billion years. That's also when the Andromeda galaxy will start merging with Milky Way galaxy. Fun times on a galactic scale!
For the commercial versions, it's easier to run the command-and-control software over the network instead of having dedicated control wires running to a centralized office. These devices are kept on a separate VLAN. Last month I received a Nessus scan report that shows the garage door openers on the general VLAN. Someone didn't properly configured the switch for those garage door openers.

I thought the TPU was for hard drive encryption. Or is it doing double duty?
It doesn't matter - he got his fake news posted and up modded. All he cared about.
It's not fake news and I don't care about being modded.

Either that or you've got one leg and no cart.
Or a bruised ego to sooth.

OK. So when you state something, and are proven to be wrong, rather than admitting your error you come back with a "what I meant to say was..."
I stand corrected. Thank you.

Tell me more about Social Society, please.
A 1950's Supreme Court decision ruled that Social Security is a government program, Congress can cancel the program at any time, and keep the money.
the democrats would need to move more center and not this extreme leftism to do that.
The Democrats have been right of center under Clinton and Obama. With Trump in office, I expect the Democrats to go left of center.

I predict that by 2100 we'll have a nuclear winter that will solve the global warming crisis.
That would solve the population problem as nuclear winter will present a different set of problems.
