Exam's used in American English, plenty. It tends to connote something a bit more serious or formal than a test, but I don't think you'd get much of a difference in reaction just using the two interchangeably, in most context

The average "technology professional" in the US made about $104,566 in 2021. Certainly not bad, but not "save half your money" good, if you have... like, a life, and a family. Maybe if you're single and don't d

Hooks are half of an object/class system (implemented on top of a language that already had a whole one—arguably, two, from a DX perspective, though they're one under-the-hood) with non-standard and hard-to-read declaration synt

Yes, of course, they benefit hugely from the ability to select students. They're also less answerable to parents or the public than public schools, in many way, which can free them up to ignore stupid demands from parents (they selec

If it were happening a bunch, there might be a good case to be made for changing permission-granting UI. Maybe not kernel-level, but OS-level, at least. In fact, lots of distros now warn when a user attempts certain sudo actions, for simila

I've seen $15k up to ~$50k /yr (non-boarding—I've seen boarding as high as $70k) The ~$15k ones tend to be Catholic or otherwise religious, and quality varies from "worse than the local public schools, actually" up

I dunno... when you're building a hierarchical tree of nameable components and several, ahem, instances of each nameable component might exist, and these need to respond to signals , that seems like a case when it's non-cra

Human output may merit some benefit-of-the-doubt if we don't initially understand it. Someone took time out of their life to create it, and presumably were attempting to convey some actual meaning. AI (at present) doesn't know wha

Japan, Singapore, and Italy all appear to be a worse off than the US (a lot worse off, in the case of Japan), as far as government-debt-to-GDP ratio. They already lack the benefit the US gets from its "petro-dollar system". Are
