Yes, the Rich Are Different â Pew Research. Pew Research has released the results of a survey done last month on the differences between the rich and the rest of us.
The survey results didn’t really break any new ground, but did throw some light on who Americans think the rich are and what they’re like. Some highlights: A large number of respondents — 65% — say the income gap between rich and poor has gotten larger in the past 10 years and 57% say that is a “bad thing.” Finally, on the coming elections, 71% of respondents said Mitt Romney’s policies would benefit the wealthy, while just 40% said the policies would benefit the middle class and 31% said his policies would benefit the poor. According to 37% of respondents, President Obama’s policies would benefit the rich, and 50% said his policies would benefit the middle class and 60% said the policies would benefit the poor.

Have you ever read through a chapter in one of those Learn Such and Such in 21 Seconds books and realized that somewhere along the way you had started daydreaming about how you would spend a trillion dollars if you were Bill Gates?
Well, it happens to me all the time. Computer books are boring. In fact, most technical writing out there bites the big one and there's no sign that the situation is going to get any better in the near future. The really unfortunate thing about this predicament is that now, more than any other period in the history of computing, is when we really need good, clear writing out there. Whether the established priesthood of computer science likes it or not, the web has opened the flood gates and computer science is being secularized post haste.
Well, the fact is that most people learning how to make a living on the web are not morons and if given the proper instructions can do just about everything they want to with their web sites, if not more.

This is the perfect place to start! This tutorial series will follow the creation of a simple game in C++ from the very beginning till the end, a micro-version of the overall purpose of this site. C++ is an evolving language standard and a great many tutorials out there are horrifically outdated or just plain bad. Similarly, most tutorials in books or on sites are by their very nature required to be very short and concise. This site fortunately does not have that restriction, so I can babble on and on and on… This series is meant to be a living document, so if you have any questions on specific section, let me know and I will update accordingly!
Finally, I don’t pretend to be an expert on C++ nor SFML, so if you see a mistake or you disagree with something I have said, let me know. Alright, lets get this started.
