It sounds less like they're being discouraged from using Python, and more like they're being encouraged to think critically about what sorts of projects Python would excel at. Put another way, they're being encouraged to use the right tool

Yeah, we're wrestling with the best way to handle this right now. On one hand, retweeting and repeating tweets is a perfectly acceptable -- and standard -- way of "voting" via Twitter, and we want to respect and appreciate that. On the othe

A serious question: What's the difference between an "unpaid internship" and a CEO of a successful company (e.g. Steve Jobs) who gets paid $1/year? Is there not a way to get around this law by simply putting the intern on a $1/summer salary
