| IllegalAlien 10/06/19 3:49:49 PM #7 | Depends. If you want to be a software engineer, you will probably have a lot of trouble. If you want to be a web developer you might have less issues if you have some personal sites or general experience. If you want to go into IT (which is paid less than programming positions) it might give you a decent shot but you would want to get some professional certifications as well. --- "Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience." |

| IllegalAlien 10/05/19 2:33:42 PM #21 | People here cry about taxes, when they make < 100k a year (hell, probably < 50k a year to be more representative), and praise the conservative ethos that's in reality suppressing their wages and engendering more and more inequality. You call AOC a communist when you're firmly of the social class she is trying to represent.

IllegalAlien posted...it's a big deal yeah the checks and balances seems to be pretty broken, but at the same time evidently Fox news didn't even report on this story until Trump tweeted then they reported that he denied the accusations... what I'm getting at is that a large segment of voters literally are not shown real news as it's breaking.
