Yeah right- what does this statistic even mean? If you are around people with measles and you haven't been vaccinated you have nothing to worry about?

My oldest son was quite different from the start.
Finally had him diagnosed in the 3rd grade with HFA and PDD. Psychologist suggested putting him on 5 different drugs (no thanks!). They tested him and he scored a 70 on an IQ test.
We did get special services in school and he was in special ed for most of his classes, mostly for the benefit of smaller classes- however didn't pursue anything outside of the school. I don't think any study has shown therapy to be useful or effective and there is too much profit motive involved.
He has been raised the same way as our 'regular' son with the same expectations for behavior and family contributions. Any 'odd' behavioral issues that I thought would greatly hamper his ability to function in society are discouraged.
He seems to have grown out of a lot of the issues he was having, he is a sophomore now and has been in honors math his second year and in regular classes. No close friends yet but there are a few kids he goofs around at school.
So here is one anecdote about a hands off approach.
I have two uncles who are farmers- both earned agricultural degrees at Cornell and both of them were one of the first business people I knew that incorporated computers in their livelihood. They cows wore radio tags and had automated systems to control how much the cows were fed and tracked milk production in addition to a variety of other things that are a part of farming. This was in the 80's.
It is hard for me to imagine there are many successful farmers left that aren't technologically savvy.
If they are going to do this for CS they may as well do it for music. Musical notation and I suppose math are the only two notation systems that are consistent in any culture. (I don't particularly agree with the premise of the OP)
Make sure you file off the front sight so it doesn't hurt so bad when the bear shoves it up your ass.
That's a terrible policy. There will always be a percentage that takes NO vacation that everyone else will be compared to. Giving generous vacation and forcing employees to take it is much better.
I had two cousins that were home schooled until high school where they graduated 1st and 2nd in their class. My aunt actually was a certified teacher- I think this is important. If you have misgivings about you wife's motivation and she really hasn't shown an interest in education I really think it would be a mistake.
I have 'home schooled' my kids in the summer and found that creating lesson plans and going over their assignments after work was exhausting. It is a huge commitment.
I don't see any cooling towers in the picture- are they hosted remotely or perhaps using some kind of heat sink to the ground?

There is an Android emulator for Z10 if you need other apps.
Worked 10 years contracting for a government agency. I don't think I ever saw a floppy disk- not even once.
Give schiit audio a try if you want a dac without spending a ton of money. I am pleased with mine...
Why does any movie 'need' to be made?
It doesn't seem to have hurt Johnny Depp's career.
The original definition of a felon was person who committed a crime punishable by death. Now it includes things like spitting your gum on the sidewalk and jaywalking. Peeing in a bush next to a bar isn't a felony but will make you a lifetime sex offender if you are caught....
