You "believe" that you can send mail messages from the command line? JFC, have you ever heard of man pages? And where did you get the impression that grep or egrep are obsolete?
Yes, when it comes to these high tech innovation announcements like uber-efficient solar cells, flying cars, hydogen fuel cells, hyper storage batteries, optical computers smaller than a warehouse, whatever... its' always the Lewis Carroll quote that is apropos:
"Jam to-morrow, jam yesterday, but never jam today."
Dude, GUI's are way over-rated for a *lot* of professional grade tasks. As a server, as a firewall, as an embedded system OpenBSD rocks. Learn to use man pages. LOL!!!!
"Alpha children wear grey. They work much harder than we do, because they're so frightfully clever. I'm really awfully glad I'm a Beta, because I don't work so hard. And then we are much better than the Gammas and Deltas. Gammas are stupid. They all wear green, and Delta children wear khaki. Oh no, I don't want to play with Delta children. And Epsilons are still worse. They're too stupid to be able "
Anyone who is a software developer should ALWAYS have admin privileges be an administrator on their desktop development machine and also on any server development machine.
I make this very clear to any prospective employer. If that criterion is not met I simply refuse to work there.
Sysadmins should be strictly shown their proper place below developers in the hierarchy of any shop.

The GoPro Black can record @ 4K resolution!
Actually with the 1080p 30 fps available on the GoPro you can get pretty good high altitude resolution of objects on the ground.
My son just built a quadcopter that has so far gone as high as 400 feet and that is far from its service ceiling. Skeet guns are not the answer.
a 10 gauge!
It's turtles all the way (up in this case.)
How did this spot on comment get moderated down. No wonder Slashdot is dying.

Always 10 years away?

hire more government employees with machine guns. Do we really need carabinieri on every corner?
And its at least 30 years old! This "UX" marketing droid needs to be taken out and shot.
You are forgetting the first rule of bureaucracy:
It is NEVER upper management's fault.
And Brave New world is only starting to come into existence and unfortunately it is probably a best case scenario for the future.

BSD what...4.2? 4.3? Far before FreeBSD.
After starting off as a patch to 386BSD, FreeBSD was based on BSD 4.3-Lite.
Zulus on the one side, English on the other. That's a pretty good example of being "between a rock and a hard place."
Who doesn't like Aldous Huxley? My post should be moderated up to "funny."

As long as it is backwards compatible with the 8008 instruction set I'll be happy!
The moon is a harsh mistress.
Communism!
I thoroughly disagree. I've spent 40 years in software development mostly in eliminating the need for humans *completely* from the task at hand.
How will we see all the snakes???
MySQL has always been weird.
the offset of the first item is zero bytes from the base address.
