  1. Don't pin this shit on anyone but the perpetrators of the gang mentality/thug culture.

    The music industry is a big problem.

  2. If you want white people to solve black-on-black violence while the blacks do nothing to help themselves, don't be surprised when the solution that white people come up with displeases the black people.

    How about smiling, being respectful and saying "thank you" to black people? That's the fastest way I can defuse any situation with a black person on the street, as most black people are afraid of crazy white folks.

  3. What are YOU doing to change that?

    As a white male, I can get a rent-a-white-man job to represent black males in society. Pays quite well.

  8. A few years back, I was in a car wreck. Therefore, my house tried to kill me.

    That's what you get for driving forward when you meant to drive out of the garage in reverse. Being drunk and beating your spouse doesn't help either. :P

  9. Linux is an operating system kernel, not a command line program such as cmd.exe or bash (or command.com).

    I commonly use the command line on Linux via SSH or serial console. If the Linux box has a GUI available, I'll have several terminal windows open and nothing else.

    There very much is a command line version of the Visual Studio compiler, which is what the IDE invokes.

    When I went to community college to learn computer programming after the dot com bust, we had to learn all flavors of Java because the CIS department couldn't afford to renew the Microsoft site license. Apparently, no could learn how to program C++ without Visual Studio. Local employers demanded that students be well versed in Visual Studio. The dean wanted to teach C++ from the Linux command line, but told by the powers to be that he could not without Visual Studio. When the site license got renewed, none of the lab computers were powerful enough to run Visual Studio .NET. After that got fixed, no instructor ever used the command line with Visual Studio.

  11. it's the compiler, idiot, nothing to do with the IDE

    IDE stands for Integrated Development Environment. That includes the compiler.

    it still happens if you run the compiler from the command line

    I wasn't aware that VS2015 C++ was available for Linux.

    One of the most inspirational teachers I had, up through college.

    I had an English teacher in college who invited students to come to class on a Saturday morning for extra help. I showed up with three or four others. She put up a sentence and asked why the grammar was correct. I took a risk and told her it felt right, as I didn't know how to explain it otherwise. Grammar Nazis always punished me for not knowing the rules of grammar. She went with my feeling and built upon it. When the semester was over, I knew my grammar rules.

    You're lucky, twice.

    Luck has nothing to do with it. I grew up in a multicultural environment where I can get along with everyone. I've never been denied or lost a job because of my race. The only time I suffered discrimination was when I worked at Cisco, where 95% of my coworkers were Indians, and, because of that, they only had vegan pizzas at company events. Pizza is not pizza unless it has some kind of meat on it.

    They didn't attend the interview, they didn't even read through their whole resume which if they did would have made them aware that she wasn't getting the job anyway, but in their eyes she was perfect for the role.

    Not everyone is capable of completing college.

    I was the first person in my family to go to college. My parents did everything but kick me out of the house to prevent me from going to college, especially since I never went to high school. To them, I was a failure. I spent my first year collecting bottles and cans around campus to pay for books and classes. During my second year, I got a job at the college bookstore that I stayed at for three years. My parents didn't accept the fact that I was a "success" until I graduated from community college.

    Those people will just just out a year later even worse off financially and mentally then they would have had they not been lied to.

    If this was a for-profit school, I would agree. I would never discourage anyone from trying to better themselves. Sometimes mistakes are made, money gets squandered and time is lost. That's the nature of life.

    (Note that that one provision is something no one remembers or cares about today.)

    Like that Supreme Court ruling in the 1950's that determined that Social Security was a government program, can be cancelled at any time by Congress, and the government can keep the money without refunding it?

    Yeah, no one cares about that ruling today. Especially by the folks who "paid into the system," expect to get every dime back and then some.

    I never listen to people like you. I was out of work for two years (2009-10), underemployed for six months (working 20 hours per month), and filed for Chapter Seven bankruptcy. For over two years, hiring managers told me I was overqualified for minimum wage jobs and recruiters told me I was uneamployable for anything else. I never listened to them. It took me five years to dig my way out of that hole.
