一線LS定係”二線”IS？

You need to quote a Kickstarter project to prove coding does not need screen time?   What serious coding doesn't need screen time?

I can predict serious programming learning requires more screen time in the future, until there is something to replace LCD screens.  

I wonder why do Silicon Valley CEOs limit their kids access to computers and screen time.

I am sure that good technical talents is one of the ...

even in the US, many many Indian are coming to the US through H1B to work in the tech industries, getting paid less than local US people.

In terms of success factors, no body really tell me what do they think is the most important success factors of Microsoft, Uber, DJI, Oracle, SAP? Do somebody here think they were successful because they hired some good programmers?

If you want to expand the meaning if programmers to mean computer scientists or "tech talents" like what you just mentioned, then it is another story.

That was precisely what I was thinking of.   Not that screens are fundamentally bad.

現在公認最成功的IT人是馬雲，馬化騰等. 背景都是LS沒有出國留學過.

有錢者。如果你的1T界成功準則只是錢，就可能正確。

DBS和SPCC lB average 只比GSlS高少少，但GSIS 係全人類考lB。重有，DBS和SPCC係全港收最好的學生，IS 個學生pool ，可以選的學生細好多。

香港學生是考試專家，並不是秘密。

一定有人要ls，有人要神校。

呢個就係我唔鐘意今時今日「神校」的地方...

G記係極度自由的，唔使校服可見一班。佢地規則少，但執行認真。

我覺得大部份神校也是此情况。 由選科開始，只有尖子才有資格選，差的學生就求其畀一科你讀。跟着， 就是好 ...

選科的限制問題，不只神校，我知一普通直資，也諸多限制。照計直資資源好，無需要咁多限制。我看在其他官津也常見。

我十懷疑是另一種方法吸引學生勤力D。唔勤力成績差科都無得選。

間間學校也想高分，但是乎學校有否放學生利益在最前。

雖然好多lS比全人類考lB，亦都唔係無例外。

你唔好話行入LS踩場
有些家長在IS圈子也直接踩邊間學校多大陸人
....但其實本身自己學校圈子裏也有大陸人

If someone judge another person by virtue of their birthplace it is textbook discrimination.

Just curious, many IS explicitly state that they only take

No, an organization or government may "choose" to serve certain section of people.  That is a choice, not discrimination.

Someone choose to marry an old man, that is a choice, not discriminating young people.

A private Christian School chooses to serve 80% Christian, that is a choice.

someone rejects a woman for a job because of her gender only, it is discrimination.

xxxxxx

Another example, if I issue an advertisement saying a hire men only for a particular job, that is discrimination. if instead I did not specify a gender in my job advertisement, I interviewed 10 men and women and eventually choose to hire a men, that is NOT discrimination against women.

of course there are less clear cut cases but the broad principle is this.

Coming back to mainland Chinese in schools.   Choosing a school with almost no mainland Chinese is a choice.

Saying you chose a school without mainland Chinese because you think they are all corrupt is discriminatory.

主要係學校如何收生，是ESF's non-selective vs GSIS's highly selective.   我看不應比較的原因在此。

香港在這方面又係幾滯後。當然仍有一兩科，如法律，去英國比美國好。

工程科學當然美國資源好，但文科如法律，歷史，政治，人文科，藝術，音樂，純科學研究，英國甚至歐洲也很好。

Agree esf non selective 收咁多人IB成績也不錯呀

所以兩間學校宗旨不同，不宜直接比較。
