So you know how to code, this alone won't get you anywhere. You also need to know something else useful and specific or someone in India can and will do your job for much less.
Because of this more coding as part of HS education won't get us anywhere other than creating more poorly compensated and/or unemployed coders.
Your experience may differ, but I was ragged on for working on my own car. I don't have to, but I do enjoy it and have few classic cars that always require attention.
Actually, I also was chided by outsiders for having multiple sports cars (I race) and a motorcycle (I ride) for being wasteful.
I know you don't see it my way, but I strongly believe masculinity will be gone in Western culture in a generation or so. Even military going that way. This will have very negative effect on boys. Already feminization of learning spaces leads to girls getting better education and outcomes. Some boys will also rebel and go with the worst stereotypes instead of having positive role models.
You chided someone up thread for using fallacies and now all you can come up is "this is stupid" and "you are making this up"? Clearly, you don't get masculinity, but that doesn't mean that any of this is wrong. Maybe talk to your doctor about low testosterone?
Yes, because anyone disagreeing with SJW idea of how a man must behave must be fucked up. After all, you all like your men barefoot and paying alimony.
Here are some specific examples of natural masculinity expressions that are being attacked in today's society: 1. Rough play and fighting (even is sports) 2. Risk-taking of any kind 3. Hunting (especially with guns) 4. Loyalty to your male friends 5. Tinkering and do-it-yourself culture 6. Self-reliance and individualism
Rape culture is where a rapist like Brock Turner gets a scant 6 months because the the judge says a prison sentence might have a bad impact on him.
Rape hysteria is where a vocal minority perpetuates misinformation about real problem but misrepresents scale, severity, and the likelihood of it happening. By comparison, there were always be murders, but it is hysterical to claim that you are going to get murdered walking down the street at night. Even if you live in high-crime area. Even if on the national scale you could find examples of this happening. Even if murder is awful, and shouldn't ever happen. Still, there is no 'walk at night murder epidemic' no matter how much such thing would play into your social justice views.
This would not be a surprise for anyone paying attention to run-away radical feminism. Expressions of masculinity are stigmatized and sometimes even criminalized, sex was made a lot more dangerous (forget STDs, false rape accusations are more likely and dangerous)... it is just easier and safer to use porn.
Netflix lacks courage to take on networks and finally get rid of regional locking content bundling. Whatever you think about Jobs, he did one big 'public good' when he took on record label industry. The same needs to happen to content networks.
But what really matters is standard of living. Sure, they might make less money, but in the 1980s a cell phone cost thousands and barely worked, compared to what you can get for a few hundred bucks and $30 a month.
Sure, we can buy electronics cheaply, but cost of housing, education, transportation are all significantly up at the same time as wages and unemployment are down.
If you are avoiding inspection, this is because you are trying to hide the evidence of crimethink. Please report to the nearest Ministry of Love reeducation station.
Interesting theory, but can't possibly work this way. Why? Because in order for this trait to benefit organism and its offspring one has to die and stop reproducing. This cuts your reproductive fitness by 100%, so no amount of benefit short of immortality would make up for such drawback.
Perhaps Congress should forgo asking questions of the professional liars ( any intelligence agency ) and ask the tech world instead. I'm quite sure the likes of Cisco, Juniper, Apple, Google and many others would have a much different perspective on the issue at hand.
Yes, they will have different perspective, but this doesn't mean that they are on our side. This perspective is to squeeze out competition by any means possible and to minimize their own liability. They would likely tell us that consumers don't like privacy and would only use cryptography to pirate movies and hide child porn.
The real motivation behind Facebook's push toward video are ads. It is too easy to filter and ignore banner ads from text communication, it is much harder tasks to filter commercials from the video stream.
So here you go, this isn't philosophical debate about the future of communications - it is classical foot-in-the-door technique in a move toward streaming video commercials to Facebook users.

I don't think LinkedIn users are at all interested in any kind of media. LinkedIn is modern equivalent of self-updating Rolodex.
Clippy is back, can't be turned off, and likes watching you shower.
You just motivated someone somewhere to install Windows 10 on a computer in their bedroom.
Most Netflix content has been off the air for years. It's cheaper content.
Most cable content has commercials, up to 20m per hour. You have to also factor cost of your wasted time.

Sorry, my free time is worth more to me than a second job.
When you are unable to afford food, housing, and defaulting on your student loans you quite likely will reconsider this stance.
Most kids today have few if any marketable skills and are in piss poor physical shape and are unable to keep up with a demanding work environment.
Sad but true... the current generation is fucking worthless.
I blame bad genes and flawed parenting for all of this.
maybe if they stopped staring at their phones and catching cartoons instead of working, they would earn more
Absolutely agree, if only they used monochrome CRT tubes to stare at usenet they would have made so much more money.
But what really matters is standard of living. Sure, they might make less money, but in the 1980s a cell phone cost thousands and barely worked, compared to what you can get for a few hundred bucks and $30 a month.

We squandered the fruits of that on peak socialism.
I think you meant to write peak corporate welfare, because at least in US social nets were/are being cut at least since Reagan era, if not earlier.
>>>"upgrade now, schedule a time, or decline the free offer"
Based on past performance, clicking decline the free offer would lead to Win10 update and the bill in the mail.
Quality vs quantity. How powerful is Africa with its starving masses?
They should have Zulu Warrior rushed the rest of civs when they had a chance.

Back in the day we had mostly black and if green showed up we were happy, because that meant that something was working... and we LIKED IT!
>>This approach has never let me down
Up until needless death from curable cancer.

Next step should be to design robots to buy stuff online, otherwise with all jobs automated who is going to buy from Amazon?
