The waiting times for some countries suck but there's a reason for that.
If the US didn't have a considerable amount of immigrants from those countries then the times would be 8x less.
Same happens with Mexico. There are so many Mexican immigrants in the US already (legal and illegal) that getting a GC it's almost impossible now unless you have a legitimate marriage to a citizen.
I remember the leaks mentioned something about reinforcing the "Trump = Hitler" idea.
This was all manufactured by the DNC and it didn't work. I wouldn't be surprised if they're currently planning ways to disrupt Trumps inauguration or other events during the next 4 years to see if he snaps and they can use that as ammo for the next election.
At the end of the day it's politics and playing dirty is expected but now that one side has been exposed it's hard to brush it off thinking everybody does it.
Same experience as OP here both on number of applicants and number of qualified female applicants.
Take home test results were considerably worse for females too and they had over five days to complete a simple thirty minute exercise.
There might be responsibilities that get in the way but IMO if you can't find a slice of time to work on something that came up then I'll be really careful in considering you for a job.
Shit happens w/o planning and I'd rather have people I can count on.
Everyone knew it wasn't a bomb? Really? AFAIK he was asked what it was and he was uncooperative although we won't ever know since his family refused the public release of the police records.
Anyways, if we're going with hearsay then we should mention the boy's sister was suspended for making a bomb threat so I'd doubt the average teacher would just brush this off as "definitely not a bomb".
Now, seems like in your mind it would've been better for the school to send a SWAT team after him. I'm sure that wouldn't be seen as a negative thing by anyone.
Same here. I've been a MySQL DBA for over 10 years and I've never had data loss or corruption even with power supplies dying and servers shutting down completely.
I've also used PG in quite a few projects and I can't say I find it better or faster at least for my usage. If anything it's more difficult to manage, there are way less decent tools to monitor, profiling is a PIA and those backslash commands just drive me nuts. I hate stuff like "\dt".
