Databases are very critical to web applications and generally any application that handles a lot of data. I've used SQL and document databases and just learned both on my own. SQL is kinda a weird concept to wrap your head around at first but the more you work with it the easier it gets. Our school had a Databases class that I didn't take but a friend took it and he switched classes. I remember others saying it was an "easy A" class. My friend said it was a joke so he didn't want to take it.
There's important concepts to know about databases (especially SQL) though. Two scripts can do the same thing but the way you write them can drastically change their efficiency. Indexes are also a pretty big deal. I'm fucking terrible at that stuff and I've tried to learn it a couple times only to forget it almost immediately. I would probably recommend just reading a book on the subject at some point in your studies. I think a course may be a waste of time.
Looks like I'll be moving on to using PGP as Australia's Government continues it's shitty moves towards setting up firewalls and implementing metadata harvesting.
If you have the time and coding is the only geekery you're into, go for it otherwise it's not worth it. Especially if you have significant travel time to get to competitions (usually on weekends). It helps you flex problem solving muscles or it shows you that other people just know perfect solutions off by heart.
Would it be better to start a grocery delivery company that delivers anything you could buy at a grocery store, or it only delivers fresh goods like meat, poultry, seafood, and produce?

Assuming you don't live in range of Amazon Fresh, Amazon already delivers all the shelf-stable items in the grocery store. If you can find a location where there isn't competition from Fresh Direct, Peapod, etc. and deliver just the perishables, it could be successful among those who already buy everything else from Amazon.

Granted I haven't done the market research yet but I'm within 30 minutes drive of two Amazon distribution centers, so probably the ultimate endgoal is to be bought out by Amazon. I'm trying to target the people who don't have access to fresh food and thus have to rely on shelf stable and frozen foods to get by in the first place. I know for a fact there isn't Fresh Direct or Peapod in my city, though, so I guess I have done a little preliminary market research.
Edit: And yeah Amazon Fresh is out on the West Coast while Fresh Direct and Peapod are on the East Coast.
I'm going to visit a friend in Chicago this winter, but I've never had winter before. What clothes should one be wearing to stay warm? Coat, pants, warm undies, etc. Assume I know nothing about winter clothes, and you'll be right.

You know those PAX scarfs? This is where you can use them, also get a good pair of gloves and a hat for your head in addition to the aforementioned items.

I know I should get a coat, but what kind? When I think coat, I think rain coat, and that probably won't cut it. What makes a good winter coat, pants, etc.?
But first Congress has to have the power to make the law in the first place. Take, for example, No Child Left Behind. There's nothing in the Constitution that allows for Congress to make laws about education. How was it legal?

It's legal because the states don't have to accept the federal education funds, but if they do...
