    Reckon I'll get into a BA here?

    Learning 5 programming languages is just fucking stupid, unless your languages are things like HTML, CSS and shell scripts. You couldn't get into much more depth than hello world with any of them. Go start out simple with VB.NET, build an application that does something remotely useful and...

    Non-white races: Do you often have to deal with latent racism?

    Why do you have to make this personal? If you have an informed opinion about something I've said, feel free to voice it. Conversely, feel free not to make suggestions that I'm just here to argue in an attempt to demean what I am saying.

    Non-white races: Do you often have to deal with latent racism?

    If someone is racist towards the white Joe Average (who isn't nessecarily racist), do you think that Joe cares that there are a lot of powerful white people or that most models are white? No, they care that someones is there calling them a white dog and abusing them. And guess what, when it...

    Non-white races: Do you often have to deal with latent racism?

    Firstly, he never suggested the racism stems from what happens in the past. That was suggested earlier, by the poster he was addressing (also, redmayne, I wouldn't say there has been genocide for the past 200 years, that's just bullshit): And you're the ignorant one I'm afraid. Aboriginal's...

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    Sorry, but I think you're looking too deeply into the retrenchement issue here. Its a mark of intelligence that people tend to overthink the multiple choice - But I think when they said retrenchment and NOT seeking work just meant that they are going from being employed to not employed. So...

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    look buddy top rank averaging 96% in our school (2nd in state in 07 and 08) says its C and an economics teacher with 15+ years of experience and an undergrad says its C. The correct answer is C. The fact that you maintain that it's A means you're either a troll or an idiot.

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    The answer is A, because if Australians demand foreign assets, they have to sell the $A to purchase the foreign currency with which to buy the assets, thus increasing supply of $A. And la bomba, Q12 is C. I posted the notes from class I took down that showed that. Are you saying that you're...

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    Yeah I would agree here and say it's C. The only way D could be true is if repayments had to be made (but in the foreign currencies) so $A had to be sold and the foreign currency bought. But the amount of depreciation from that would be so small as to be insignificant.

    Section I - Multiple Choice

    Top rank at my school (baulkham hills) reckons C. And in any case, comparing 2 years: Real GDP = Nominal GDP x CPI(prev year)/CPI(same year) Real GDP = 6800 x (130/150) Real GDP = 5833 WHICH IS LOWER THAN 6000. And heres the page from my book where ive got notes on this...

    prescribed text as a related text?

    Even if it were allowed, it would give the marker the impression that you are lazy since you can't be bothered searching for your own related text and given the amount of marker discretion in this subject, you dont want the marker to think negatively of you at all.

    section 2 question

    As well as the clever intertextual reference, he has the visual motif of the sunflower used to simultaneously convey the beauty of the path to belonging and satisfy the stimulus and the idea that the sunflower grew through his acceptance, reinforcing its symbolism of the path to belonging and...
