Indeed, however they did get considerable help from others in designing fairly and producing fairly "simple" stuff. Throwing stuff into space; yeah, they can kinda do. Making sure a nuke explodes over Washington and not somewhere in China? Not so much...

Nope. Putting bits back together after a violent explosion is hard. Some parts of the jigsaw will have simply burned away, others will never be found. This is a first step in finding "what"...by finding "where". Once you've got where, then what, off we go to "why"...

I've tried a Tesla; indeed a great car. But I'll be sticking with my CL55 AMG that I bought second-hand for less than $10000 - it drives like new. It's just a better car in every way*, and I don't have to suffer from "range anxiety".
*Use the max performance in a Tesla and the range just evaporates...OK it does in the Mercedes too, but finding a gas station is easy, and filling the tank is fast.
You're right to point that out, but even before the recent coup attempt many reasonable commentators were concerned about Erdogan's "authoritarian" ways, including his attempts to increase the power of the presidency. He is currently ruling by decree; not very democratic...
As the innovative, entrepreneurial founders will soon leave in the face of crushing politics and bureaucracy, while what could have been a helpful cross-platform tool (for those with zero clue about privacy) will be crippled to "work" only with MS products...
Well, I've gotten older...still welcome progress though. Progress as in positive change. Not bullshit change for change's sake. Seen from a neutral standpoint (as a BSD neckbeard I've no dog in this fight) I maybe see the point of Systemd for non-tech "desktop" users. But for servers?
Well, if you "got the point" of TR, you are one of a select few:) (I was at IBM when it launched and we knew then that it would not fly). Ethernet ultimately killed-off TR, AppleTalk and sundry others.
Kinda like the IBM PS/2 and OS/2; in theory (and also in reality in many cases) far superior, but too expensive, too complex, too late, too "propitiatory/closed"
But still, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Larry Asshole then took the IBM ball and ran with it....
Dota 2 is a free-to-play multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) video game developed and published by Valve Corporation for Microsoft Windows, OS X, and Linux. The game is the stand-alone sequel to Defense of the Ancients (DotA), which was a mod for Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and its expansion pack, The Frozen Throne. Dota 2 is played in matches between two teams that consist of five players, who each occupy their own base on the map. Each player controls a powerful character, known as a "hero", that feature unique abilities and different styles of play. During a match, a player collects experience points, gold, and items for their hero in order to fight heroes of the opposing team, while attempting to push through their defenses. A team wins by being the first to destroy a large structure located in the opposing team's base, called the "Ancient".
In many parts of the world, and especially in India, gold is indeed widely used as an "ultimate" store of value. Go to Dubai and you'll see the immegrant workers buying "genuine guaranteed" ingots to take back home
You're right, she should go, having added no value. But I'm sure she negotiated a sweet deal with stakeholders as part of the overall package. (BTW, this is not an anti-fem rant; plenty of good female and bad male bosses out there, and while I'm here let me extend a hearty "fuck you" to all the SJWs trying to ruin/.) Back on topic, quite what she means by "It's important to me to see Yahoo into its next chapter..." one can only speculate. Selling the remaining minority interests they have? That'll be done by the bankers, my dear, they don't need you. Talking of banks, she's crying all the way to one: Salary $117 million over 5 years; $36.6 million for first six months. Net worth US$500 million

Not so much...
OK it looks great, but that's a lot of dough for something the average Joe will probably smash within a week.
Or get shot out of the sky...
Indeed; I still hate debugging C code written by someone else, tho'.
Is there a language where it's easier to make hard-to-find bugs?
Yes, except Kosovo is not a state...

This.
Very happy with my latest generic Chinese phone, which has nice features like dual sim and minimal bloatware, (that is easy to desactivate)
This is why I don't use password keepers, store my stuff in browsers, use Opera or Evernote to sync, Google drive...
Sooner or later they will ALL be breached; many already have been.

So, like, beer and hookers at the launch?
As many have posted here, his lack of objectivity is annoying and unhelpful.
Thanks.
Yup, Mosaic.
For along while, MS IE had credits to Mosaic on the splash screen....which seemed to take a long time to go away even with an overclocked 386DX

Well....maybe
Take a look at this for a great "from the first principles" discussion on comms in nuc environments.

What's the deal? This stopped being "news" after the first two.
All the stories are alike:
1. Driver engages "autopilot"
2. Driver takes hands off wheel / stops paying attention to the road.
3. Driver crashes; blames "autopilot" instead of own stupidity.
