I think the dating ritual depends on the city. I probally shouldn't say this, but I see many single women move to San Francisco, and while if they get housing, they enjoy big-city events, but dating is not one of them here.
San Francisco is not a good place for straight women to date. No one talks about it, because it's not politically correct, but in my observations they come here, and are lonely.
There's just too many single women, and not enough men. I have a very attractive ex-girlfriend, and we had so many conversations about social life, or lack there of. It got to the point, where I took her out and watched what took place. Guys--way below her league wouldn't talk to her unless she aggressively talked to them first.
I know I get hammered because I'm not being politically correct, and yes--there's always the exceptions, but at least in San Francisco it's difficult for sigle women looking for a steady relationship.
I'll point out the politically incorrect thoughts, and save you time:
I shouldn't have stereotyped. I shouldn't have assumed some females are looking for a steady relationship. I shouldn't have mentioned looks/personality when I said "way below her league". I probally left out something that hurt someone deeply--sorry.
I wouldn't worry about the downvotes. Sometimes, I think people express their opinions for the sole purpose of upvotes? That said, you didn't say anything rude, and I would have had no idea that you weren't a native speaker from your post.
I'm not much of a programmer, and don't usually comment on posts regarding on programming languages, but after looking at a lot of languages to learn; I am most intrigued by Lisp. I don't like wordy books. Lisp seems to be the least wordy?
As yes, I know it looks complicated, but there is a simplicity about it too?
And as a novice, I agree that "readability is an artifact of familiarity". Engish is easy because it's the only language I was taught. I had a hell of a time learning to write, and speak it as a kid. I look back, and I think I had a learning disability?
I told a guy at work, "There's no way I could ever learn Chinese." He looked at me, and said, "I think you could learn the language. It's a lot of one syllable words. You're just used(familiarity) of English?
I use JavaScript because I can ask questions on Google, and get an immediate response. I hope more people put up tutorials on Lisp. I would love to see a walk through(step, by every little step) on say the construction of let's say --Hacker News? I've always been intruded by construction of this website. I looked at the source code, but need help--on a lot of levels. I looked at lobster.io, and it's not Hacker News. (I guess it's part "familiarity"?) Actually, what should do is learn Lisp, and then put up a tutorial, but that will probally never happen because I'm just not the guy for the job on a lot of levels.
A lot of people recommend learning the basics of a language before jumping into a complicated application, and that's good advice. I have found, I learn better when someone builds a program, and slowly walks me through the steps. I do take the side notes seriously. When someone recommends learning A before moving on the B; I follow that advice.
"Mark Zuckerburg created FashMash and then Facebook and had some early traction among his house at Harvard before convincing his cofounders to join."
I don't think it went down quite like that? I just can't let
that little dude slip into history as the brilliant, modern day Jobs, or Gates. In my mind, he capitalized on someone else's idea--with the help of a lot of people, and got very lucky. Whenever I(under a pseudonym) use his site, I wonder why there isn't more competition. I sometimes think the very act of stealing someone's idea/site is the reason for Facebook's success? "I better not question that new hire--I'm not sure I even belong here? I was wrong on mobile? Maybe I should just follow their advice?"
Really dude? Had it coming? Spend next Sunday in church.
I think his unemployment might have to do more with his age?
I know to many unemployed programmers over 45 years of age.
Two are literally homeless. Time goes by quick--just when
you think you will always be in demand; you get that Friday
meeting. You just might feel this guys agony in a few years, but you sound like a spolied brat--who's family will
always be there to pay the rent.
