He' 5'7" according to Google. Posture tends to suffer with the amount of drugs they must have been taking, so who knows?

What’s the average rent in LA for a room within 10 miles of campus? Average monthly cost for food? Transit?

Now take those numbers, multiply them by 12, and add them to the tuition cost.

Now multiply that by four. Near $80-100k? Definitely.

College debt doesn’t just come from tuition, if you want to make a valid argument representing students in the last 10 years, you need to take into account cost-of-living factors as well.

When you do, $25k isn’t hard to hit at all a year. Take any UC school (average in-state ~$15k) and add just rent (~$800/month if you’re lucky) and you’ll get there. Now factor in food, travel (over breaks), club fees, etc and you’ll see why debt is so high, on average, despite students working part time jobs.

Some of her concerns do make sense, but the using, “a lot of our users stil use python 2.x” as a justification, in 2019, is ridiculous. Those same users had years to adopt/change the code base.

For someone with such strong opinions on personal platforms, he’d do well to fix the scrolling in his site.

Great link/content. Doesn’t work on mobile, unfortunately.

Hey, well, at least my comment also added input to the conversation.

You could have let it be, but instead you derailed things further. All good, I learned something new about ellipsis + periods from someone else’s response.

I am very happy to see this. During my time at Berkeley, Grocery Outlet was easily the cheapest option for groceries and really spread my (very thin) budget. Unfortunately they closed the Berkeley location (it was way down University) in favor of some flashy new apartments.

Are they more numerous, though? I don’t know, but recall that Dems did win the popular vote.

More vocal and likely to act in a coordinated effort? Unfortunately, probably.

Anyone from Azerbaijan here care to chime in on the general viewpoint/feeling in their country about the genocide?

Wikipedia is a community resource, so when I read these things I naturally wonder if it’s a constant tug-of-war between the moderators and the general public posting updates, or are the moderators simply pushing a nationally-held viewpoint?

Genuinely curious.

It certainly does seem that way, especially with python. I wouldn’t be opposed to a fun tutorial in a different language. Also not trying to be pedantic (is anyway) but ... should always have three .’s. (I learned that recently)
