Well, not before coming across Netflix's Jeeves and Wooster videos. Now I'm not so sure.

Whoa there. You wouldn't steel a car, would you???
Germans are essentially stupid when it comes to totalitarianism in any form. After all, this is the country that hat to start and lose _two_ world wars in order to find out that they are may not be the master-race.
Beim dritten Mal ist ein Charme!
Damn, lots of Stasi victims are still of working age even. You'd hope the Germans had developed more antibodies against this crap.
Given the nice, modular nature of LLVM, I would think even the GCC developers would find it to be a more enjoyable best to work on.
Any idea why most GCC developers don't simply port their front-ends / back-ends of choice to LLVM, and walk away from GCC?
I know there's the licensing issue, which I assume matters to some heavy-duty OSS advocates. But in my experience most programmers who work with OSS aren't super passionate about GPL vs. Berkeley -style licensing.
I did cover bi. I don't know enough about transsexuals to know where they fit into this schema.
If it's a matter of not having students who are sexually attracted to each other, they have a serious logistical problem:
I'm not positive, but I think you'd need something like this:
When they ace it, end up in one of the ultra competitive CS schools (or work environment) and haven't been exposed to whatever it is that causes female students to not do well right now, all in one shot? It would even out eventually, but the first few batches will be in for a rude awakening.
Can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs! Well, actually, if they're female eggs than the federal government will be all over you. But if they're male eggs, screw `em. Because, you know, equality.
Nice explanation, thanks for taking the time.
I got the sense that you were implying that the right side of history == the more moral position. Is that where you were going with that?
I appreciate your comment. I suspect that everyone is to some extent ideologically driven. I think it matters quite a bit what the ideology is, and what ours is, and how strongly each of us clings to it, if we hope to come to agreement on an issue.
Either way, welcome to the wrong side of history.
Could you explain more about when you mean by being on the "wrong side of history"? I find it an interesting concept, but I'm not positive what you mean by it.
Only an idiot would bother trying to persuade someone called DoofusOfDeath of anything. It's clearly a pointless endeavour.
I find your logic compelling. I am now fully persuaded of the OP's assertion. Well done, sir.
Affirmative action in the United States counteracts institutional and systemic discrimination against specific groups (often visible) minorities.
Affirmative action for women is not the same as sexism; it is a corrective for sexism.
You'll need to define those terms carefully before you have any hope of persuading us.
We'll give the NSA expedient access to our encrypted data...
When they'll confess to all possible breaches of our Constitution, and submit to the death penalty for any actual breaches.
Have we got a deal, NSA? Oh, why not? You fucking traitors.
should be required to cease algorithmic trading until they can prove that their trading algorithms are logically equivalent to a particular reference algorithm provided by the FTC!
Coding is NOT Computer Science
I'd like to understand you, but could you please restate that in untyped lambda calculus?
