The calls to JavaScript functions that are ID-based would certainly not work. But there are many ways to access them that wouldn't.
In regard to the selector type, does Homer have more than one left eye? More than likely not, but that's why I suggested using all class selectors as an option. Using all class selectors would enable you to produce (a) as many Homers as you'd like and (b) as many left eyes, right eyes, mouths, etc as you'd like.
From what I see in the CSS files, you already prefixed (edit: by prefixed, I mean child selectors) everything with the character's name, which is where my confusion comes from. Either everything should use class selectors, or characters should use a class selector and the constituent body parts should be ID selectors.
I use them all, but predominately Windows for my actual coding and then I deploy to a Debian development server that mimics my production settings with debugging enabled. I don't enjoy the OS X GUI and always find it clunky. Cost of Apple products also dissuades me significantly. I can more than afford their products, but I can't justify it because I can build what I feel is a better machine for significantly less. Linux is great, but no Photoshop and I always find myself tinkering with it (though this isn't a bad thing, just not time efficient).
Ultimately, I find I'm more productive in a Windows environment, and that's what counts for me.
Pretty sure I'll continue to put SSH on a non-standard port. I already monitor my systems and its their logs heavily, and this cuts down on 99% of SSH-related spam. Any attack that's serious, the port will not matter.
It's clearly intended as a joke. It's a slideshow shown to people with technological backgrounds. Most people in computer-based work have seen poorly selected stock photos like these to depict hackers/terrorists/whatever.
1. I learned in the 4th grade. I built my elementary school's static website and was allowed to use the computer lab instead of attending class, as my parents had already taught me the majority of stuff through ~6th/7th grade level. It was a "gifted" classroom, and most of the students were there with me. After I built the website, I had my parents buy me a book on C, which happened to be K&R. I can't say I understood exactly what I was doing at that age (I doubt anyone ages 8-11 really has that mental connection), but I knew how to make command line programs.
2. See 1, more or less. I'd say I -really- started to learn when I built my own website in high school that started bringing in money and still does today. It was a full web application to start and I just kept rebuilding it from scratch as I learned new stuff (object-oriented programming, design patterns, etc).
3. I wouldn't really call myself a professional. I went into bioengineering and medicine, but I still program every day because it runs our current world and will for the foreseeable future. I market myself as a software engineer, but I only accept jobs I find interesting or that pay 6-7 figure salaries.
I doubt you could come up with anything since you can only learn from other people, apparently. "Learning styles" is just another way of pronouncing "lazy".
You likely don't know how to read textbooks correctly. It's a legitimate problem in school systems around the world - most kids are taught from an early age to do exactly what the teacher says and that's how you learn. Thus, they never learn anything on their own.
What else is classroom education if you're not sharing experience? You can study on your own, so putting stuff on the board from a book doesn't count. You can do practice problems on your own, so going through examples from a book doesn't count. What else is left? The only thing to be gained from a classroom is experience that's unique to classmates and the instructor.
Khan Academy isn't good and never will be. It fills the gap for new college students who didn't pay attention in class and never learned how to read a textbook. True classroom education comes from sharing experience, not regurgitating material and doing practice problems.
Everything is based on stored bits. It's how those bits are interpreted that matters. No banker should care that they store bits instead of physical cash. It simply doesn't matter. I've only ever seen inept programmers think that everyone should know the underlying technology, which I guess you could say is hypocritical, as I doubt many of them truly understand what's happening in the lower levels of programming, physics, or math. Abstraction - it's important.
It's 5PM on a Wednesday. You need to do the laundry because you have a client meeting tomorrow, but you decide to use Prim. They have an average return time of one day, so you end up going to the client meeting naked, since they didn't get your clothes back in time.
I'm sure it'll make money since it's exploiting the lazy. The folding is a nice touch, but it's essentially useless since it puts unwanted creases and wrinkles in clothes. They aren't following tag instructions, either. Based on this, here are the steps that are actually useful:
1. Separate white clothing from non-white clothing.
2. Place white clothing in washer and add soap.
3. Place white clothing in dryer.
4. Place non-white clothing in washer.
5. Remove white clothing from dryer.
6. Place non-white clothing in dryer.
7. Remove non-white clothing from dryer.
That's all they're doing for people besides giving them a little soap. It's about 5 minutes of work, so around $300/hour if they're efficient, assuming one bag per customer. This is a scam YC if I've ever seen it.
I know what the academic experience is like for the majority of students, it was me my first year of college. I realized that almost all teachers are dogshit after that and only attended class when it was required, studying on my own. Most people don't come to that realization until it's too late, though.
