I feel like two separate point counters for each post would work best. One for well thought out post, and one for disagreement. They wouldn't affect each others score, and only the positive point counter would determine the ranking of the score.

I don't know about that, I think it's an increasingly small minority who have been calling out recent PC submissions and ideas.

I don't know if this falls under fraud. It is a form of encryption, albeit minimal to a ridiculous degree.

Well, I guess it's time for me to identify as a non-jew just long enough to pick up some easy cash!

Seriously, how does this strike anybody as acceptable? For example, imagine if there was a prize in college that was available to everybody but degenerate Germans. People would be upset, and rightly so.

What's the latency?

This will be fun until 4chan/8chan find it.

Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks

I understand the natural segregation in sports, as men are more physically fit in general, but could you explain the trading bias? I'm not saying you're wrong about it, I just want to understand your PoV more. Thanks

He seems to think things through and come to a lot of his conclusions logically. The parent comment illustrates this well. Just as PG is respected for opinions that aren't directly related to VC, people can be knowledgeable about things outside their main field of work.

Also, nobody said Adams was an expert about feminism and the wage gap.

I think this idea is due to the fact that a lot of Asian people are successful, and this runs counter to the narrative that minorities are being actively held down.

Meritocracy is a myth, didn't you hear?

Not really, I've seen a lot of threads about her get deleted. You can go on /r/undelete and see posts deleted.

I'm fairly "right wing" (not the same as your listed views though), and while I have experienced a bit of derision in class while expressing my ideas, it's nothing I can't deal with. I'm an adult, disagreements are part of life.

Some of my professors have been very free market(the economists oddly enough), although the majority are indeed left wing.

I don't really think that it's sophisticated propaganda, but rather a very ivory tower/academic view of the world that makes college a left-leaning place. I'm fine with being taught by biased professors, I just take some of their statements with a grain of salt.

I wasn't a heavy reader of the site, but it always struck me as very fact-oriented and professional. That's too bad to hear.

Yep, I saw a sharp decline in quality and increase in clickbait right around when GamerGate picked up steam. Maybe it was happening before but it's very noticeable now. Too bad.

Edit: Ignore this, sorry for posting the link.

I have so many things I haven't done yet. I have so many people I haven't met yet.

Life is a short and most likely one time thing. We might as well see what we can make of it and who we can impact in a positive way.

Please talk to your friends and family if you start having harmful thoughts.

It's going to be very close to Charleston. Thanks for commenting. I'll be emailing you soon!

I got it all set up, thanks!

Thank you very much for the nuanced reply. My current plan is to go for my BS in CS at RPI or RIT next year if I don't find solid employment with a tech company before then.

Until either of those two things happen, I will be contributing to open source projects and creating my own projects while working other jobs in order to boost both my resume and skill level.

Great reply, thank you for your perspective.

I sent you an email, thanks.

Thanks for the comment. I'm under the impression that once you have your foot in the door so to speak, (a job that you perform well in) that a degree is for the most part a formality. Am I incorrect?

Thanks, that link is an interesting read.

Thanks for the great response! I'll most likely make the code for my site open once I'm finished with it, as I think it will make more sense once I have it all documented and tied together.

As far as finishing my projects goes, I have finished multiple small games. That said, the code is very sloppy since I worked on most of them before any formal training. Here are three games I've made for android using Haxe (for "Turnt" as a proof of concept) and Adobe Air (the other two games) https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Zenkman

Here is also another game I created using Haxe: http://indiegames.com/2013/05/browser_pick_stockholm_adds_to...

Once again, thanks for taking time out of your day to reply.

Aren't article spinning bots similar to stock trading bots in that somebody would only sell the bot if it wasn't working anymore?

Arch. I just started using it a few weeks ago for development purposes and it blows the socks off of every other OS I have ever used in almost every way (besides the initial install).

If you don't mind me asking, how do you go about acquiring clients for the web dev, and what rates do you charge? Thanks!
