Connecting with other professionals in various ways is all there is to building a network and anyone can do it. They just have to do it.

Learn C and C++. Find a cheap micro pc board, pick one of the embedded linux distros that run on it, and make something with it.

Repeat until you get bored, exhausted, or a job. :)

Quality of work, communication challenges in time zones, language barriers, and setting a company culture are huge barriers to entry for workers remote from India.

Minimum required wages of at least the prevailing wage and limited access for W2's are major ones for bringing them here. Even doubling the W2's wouldn't cover replacing all jobs.

The extremely vast majority of web app developers don't need 99% of what CSS can offer. But it's neat to know it's there.

Yep., recommendation engines would have to be very carefully tuned, or you risk becoming liable. Recommending only curated content would be a way to protect yourself, but that costs money that companies don't have to pay today. It would be doable.

    The text presents a logical inconsistency. Here's a breakdown of the issues:

    Sequence of Events: Joe drives Sue to the university and then returns home. This part is clear.
    Inconsistency: The text states that after Joe drove home, he drank tea with Sue in the kitchen. However, Sue should be at the university if Joe drove her there, not at home.
    To correct this, consider one of the following revisions:

    Sue returns home: If Sue returns home with Joe:

    "Joe drove Sue to the university. Afterwards, he drove back home with her, and they drank tea together in the kitchen."
    Joe drinks tea alone: If Sue stays at the university:

    "Joe drove Sue to the university. Afterwards, he drove home again and drank tea alone in the kitchen."
    Either option removes the inconsistency and clarifies the sequence of events.
