Of course, but you completely missed the points. People need to experience things before they know if they will like them, and almost everyone, save those with developmental disabilities, can achieve a certain minimum level if given the opportunity. Like most people can read and do basic arithmetic, I'm certain most people could learn the basics of coding. It might even help them think logically about other problems.
He did seem to have that ability, but it was as nothing to his greatest strength: the Reality Distortion Field. If you read accounts of the early Apple days even back then much of his success was due to simply convincing people that everything his company produced was great, even when it wasn't.
All of these complaints about children needing to have an existing aptitude or interest in CS and logic confuse children for adults.
An interest in CS and logical thinking are not things children are born with, like blue eyes or blond hair. They are things that are learned and discovered during their childhoods. One of the reasons we "force" children to do activities at school that they have no previously shown any interest in is so that they can experience them and learn about them.
While a small number may experience programming outside of school, most probably won't. Doesn't meant they are not interested, just means they don't know if they will be interested yet. Also, even if they don't enjoy it at first, they may come to in time. Children grow up fast, they change fast, and often they need to have a basic understanding of something before they can really start to enjoy it. I hated reading books when I was 5, but loved reading then at age 10.
The idea that some people are just born programmers and some are not is ridiculous. Most of us learn to read and do basic maths, and we don't assume that the majority of people are just are not cut out for reading or asthmatic.
I couldn't find stats for the US, for some reason the government doesn't seem to publish this particular data in an easily digestible form, but compare with the EU: http://shrinkthatfootprint.com...
About 1/3rd of electrical energy is consumed by homes.
Even with lasers you have to be careful though. A place I worked bought an Oki one years ago, and it only lasted about 2000 sheets before needing an expensive part. The manufacturer explained that it was because were it was used to print invoiced it had printed 2000 individual pages, instead of say 500 documents of 4 pages each. That apparently stressed this part out a lot and caused it to fail rather quickly.
The other issue is turning the printer off as soon as the last page comes out. You need to wait for it to settle down and cool properly, otherwise the fuser can get screwed up and you end up with streaks on your print outs.
The sequel was okay though. It was actually fairly faithful to the source material, e.g. with the Litch behaving exactly as one should the moment things went wrong for the bad guy, and the failed teleport spell (er... spoiler alert).
My favourite D&D movie of all time is Hawk the Slayer. I swear it must have been based on a roleplay session.
"Some women" = straw man argument.
How world you keep salt secret with git?
The salt isn't supposed to be secret. That's now how it works to increase difficulty of reversing a hash.
I'm thinking that your analysis may be flawed if you don't grasp the basics.
So on the one hand we have the anti-environmentalists screaming that we can't live on renewables alone, and on the other we have people criticising Gates for agreeing and not giving up on making the necessary evil of fossil fuels less evil.
How did you read "shouldn't" and in your mind understand "should stop"? If I say "people shouldn't steal" do you understand that yo mean "you should stop stealing"?
Your rage has literally made you blind, unable to comprehend what I wrote.
You, sir, are an idiot. Creating conflict where there is none, the very thing you accuse others of.
It's pretty easy to find a reasonable temperature that everyone is happy with. Human beings can be comfortable in a fair range of temperatures around 18-25 C, simply by dressing appropriately. This really isn't a bid issue and most offices don't have a problem with it. Yet somehow you have to try to turn it into a gender conflict.
Straw man argument. You are arguing that attempts to prevent harassment should be resisted because some imaginary foe of the MRA might try to abuse it.
How do I know you are an MRA? You question my manhood. I'm not afraid of having my manhood challenged though. I don't define myself by ridiculous, toxic notions of what a man is. I'm not constantly worried about doing or saying something that might seem less than alpha male.
