I am convinced that my 14-year-old daughter could be an excellent programmer. She has the right mind for it, she hates dressing up, she's a bit of a loner, all good traits for a programmer. But she really hasn't shown any interest. In fact, right now it looks like "missionary to Japan" is her most likely outcome. And that's fine with me. It's her life. Why should I care? I just want her to do what makes her happy.
Actually, it's a pretty good proof of anti-competitive practices. And there is a law against that. As Aereo found, the law is not always as cut and dried as you think. In fact, today the law can effectively be boiled down to a single point: "Don't make a person in power angry at you."
At many companies I have worked at "female tech" (as a majority) is usually a Project Manager. "Male tech" is a developer. These do not have the same salary.
Amazon most likely can't find techs of any talent in Seattle without making the prices outrageous. After all, Microsoft is already there scooping a lot of them up. Since women are highly underrepresented in a field where there are not enough people to go around anyway, this is going to skew the results. I'm sure a talented female programmer would be paid the same and Amazon would love to have her. She's just not there. Even her male counterpart is barely there, at least based on the hiring that I have done.
The biggest QT project I'm aware of is the official Bitcoin wallet. Having heard about it for a long time (since it fit on a floppy) that's a pretty quiet track record.
All along I thought this was a nice little anecdote. Now you're telling me it's nothing but a Christian copout for doing the right thing?
How about Jesus saying, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." It's the same thing. If you think something should be a certain way, then it's up to you to follow your conscience. Not say, "Oh well, it can't be helped, might as well profit from these slaves."
He stole documents that were supposed to be public domain that the government had put behind a paywall and made them public. He used MIT's license and free-to-the-public internet to do this.
He got caught because he put his downloader in one of their closets. None of this should have been technically illegal, and even MIT didn't want to prosecute, but the government decided they didn't like him.

Except in areas with lead pipes... Maybe they don't get the Cosby Show in areas with lead pipes...?

Oh, yeah, there are NO programming jobs available...
Just move to California. Every company is looking for 5 programmers.
Hilarious in light of the recent "Barbie is a Computer Engineer" book. Somebody needs to mod this up.
It tells you she's fat and lazy and sits around watching soaps and eating bon bons, doesn't it?
If Americans drive twice as far as Germans every day, it would make sense that twice as many people would die.
They use capacitors to ensure they have enough time to write out the RAM after power down.
Yeah, the convenience store should just let themselves be robbed by her poor little angel...

Maybe he prefers facts to the lies the cops presented in court.
Xbox 720 has such a nice ring to it...
Moral of the story, you shouldn't touch a GM, Ford or Chrysler for all the tea in China...
That's OK. There's 500 other companies where I live that are all looking for 5 more developers. So no big...
The sales drones...
FTFY
The cable companies did exactly this for years (with a single antenna) and paid nobody. So what was your point again?
Yeah, the traditional cable companies only had one antenna for everyone when they got started. What was your point again?

Referrer leakage is exactly why it matters.
Not to mention that cloud databases are far more likely to expose your business to (potentially government-assisted) industrial espionage.
Mono already has a very good version of WinForms. Just compile it in.

Hinduism is a pretty major religion, at least worldwide, and most of it's adherents are vegetarian.
