It's never too late to start programming. To get a job though you need to show you can get things done. Even if you're going for junior roles, you'll benefit from being able to include links to some finished projects on your CV. For most basic entry level it is far far far better to have something that was finished, and works, but isn't perfect rather than nothing at all.

Don't put too much trust in so called "certificates" from these schools. A company will, again, be more interested to see what you can do than what pieces of paper you've earned. Having said that some courses are good (some are not). Only sink money into it if you have scrutinised the reviews and seen good words about them on here or Reddit or other popular program discussion places. Don't go off their own testimonials.

If you were willing to be relaxed on salary (if the alternative is indeed homelessness) then you ought to be able to get your toe in the door somewhere. After that don't feel too loyal, do what you need to, but study and build study and build in your own time and keep yourself out there open to job #2.

"Sergei... Are we the bad guys?"

"I don't even know anymore, Ivan"

Turning in a circle while turning off the transponder would seem to be a sensible thing if you suddenly realise people could be viewing your projected route..

Assuming he was elsewhere on CCTV at the time of the shooting (work, university, cafe) he should be ok.

I wasn't aware, thanks

The US should have humane worker rights.

A bunch of comments on here and Reddit about how police will do everything they can to make sure he's seen as a threat during arrest and kill him? I don't think that's the case, but if this guy has nothing to do with it and felt the same it would be much safer to just walk into a police station and get ruled out of the investigation. Better that than risk a cop spotting him one day and thinking himself a hero.

I didn't mean it makes sense as in I agree. I meant, 'oh, a lot of this is going on and it fits in'

We should know within a day because if flirty Starbucks guy isn't him then that person will almost certainly come forward to get removed from investigation.

He's shown a high degree of planning so far. Bringing a decoy bag and being casual in front of CCTV in not-his-clothes seems on the money at the moment. As soon as I heard he made a beeline for central park I bet he has a change of outfit and strolled out looking totally different. Sure enough they've found a bag in the park they think was his. He's 2 to 3 steps ahead of them..

Or he's terminal himself and pissed off

Octoparse has a free tier and a Google scholar template. No idea about other sources. Ultimately Google scholar / research gate etc don't provide their own RSS feeds so any solution you use is going to involve someone tweaking a scraping template over time to keep up with changes to the source websites. = Cost.

I used to just use email notifications instead and had a filter for these in my inbox which had the same effect as an RSS feed...

More women dying in childbirth = more men sat around in the dust with nothing but guns and Islam. What an existence..

Don't extort people using their health?

Ah well that makes sense then

I get it, but also can you imagine a foreign country banning Amazon because "it means the US can see what you're up to and it gets to choose what deals to push at you" etc?

I mean.. Facebook for god's sake..

Being protectionist makes sense sometimes but it screws you over when other countries start banning your apps in favour of home grown alternatives..

I might be the only person on the planet who enjoyed watching all 9 films (with Rogue One being add-on favourite)

I don't know how bad it's considered to be, I've seen people complain about Sum of All Fears. But I seem to be able to watch it on repeat..

They are extremely boring with little to no real threat and tedious fights where you know who's going to win anyway

Character development? Probably the only actual thing that dies
