    It's so funny but it's so true. I do feel it takes a similar degree of ad hoc research though, if you have the ability to learn how to program an app with certain degree of complex…

    I just want to mention that Gaddafi brought a lot of development to Libya and his death did nothing for his people. It's easy to say "oh he was a dictator and dictators are bad" bu…

    this would not only explain why less women go into stem, but also why more guys go into it, as it is common for a guy to feel the onus of securing financial safety for his family. …
