The one thing that could replace BitTorrent as the major filesharing protocol would be a protocol that is more anonymous and harder to track, in case people would get more privacy-conscious in the future (yeah, right). Even then it would probably be something evolved from BitTorrent, like OneSwarm.
But to be fair, small trackerless torrents can take disproportionally long to download since it takes a fixed amount of time to get peers from the DHT.

You seem to be living in the wrong country, or using the wrong ISPs. I've lived in different cities in Sweden for the past decade, and I've never had any problem getting maximum download speeds on a decently seeded torrent, whether that has been a lowly 200KB/s or 1MB/s.
USB doesn't have a "one device per port" rule. You could plug in an evil USB stick, it could behave just like an ordinary storage device, and then, in the middle of the night (if the computer is still on) it could start up another device, say a "keyboard" which is preprogrammed to send you to a webpage with a known exploit or to run a program in a previously hidden directory that connects to an SSH server and gives whoever is listening at the other side shell access to your computer. This could also be hidden in an USB mouse, or a USB webcam, or absolutely anything USB.
I think I'm getting some ideas for a DIY project...
No, the advantage (in memory management) is that you can know exactly when a resource is freed. This is true both if you are calling delete explicitly and if you are using smart pointers or other automatic memory management tools.
...if someone were to dig out the API keys from all closed-source clients, they would get banned too? I seriously doubt that any of them use any sort of obfuscation.
As many others have said, move to a country that does its general education in high school. For extra bonus points, move to a country with free university-level education.
Salvia officinalis, garden sage, is a common garden plant and is nice with pork.
Salvia divinorum, which is the species that has the hallucinogenic alkaloids, is neither. If anything, it's rumoured to be very difficult to grow.
I don't see how it could be completely resistant to manipulation. Anyone who can afford to buy lots and lots of bitcoins (e.g. a government) could set up a bank and issue loans at an interest rate that they can modify to change different properties of the economy.
GCC, which is probably the most used C++ compiler, supports the new for-syntax since 4.6, deleted member functions since 4.4, and explicit virtual overrides in the 4.7 development series.
If you feel it is ok to dump out customer information because you're teaching corporations and governments that they aren't very secure, why aren't you divulging who you are so that this is done on the up and up level.
I doubt that something will actually happen, but I really hope they manage to pull off some really spectacular stunts. I've long since passed the point where I thought that anyone in government or in the private sector could do anything actually useful, now I'm just hoping for some entertainment.
This problem has nothing to do with the Bitcoin network, only the client. Anyone can write a new client that stores the wallet in a safer way and it will not require "rebooting" the Bitcoin system itself.
First of all 25,000 pages is one HELL of a pdf file any way you cut it. It would be impractical for email. They'd have to upload it somewhere it could be downloaded (for free where their bandwidth gets tied up.) And it this cash strapped economy, NO ONE in government is giving anything away.
Or they could burn it to a CD-R and make anyone who wanted a copy pay for a blank disc and postage. Less work for everyone.
It's pretty obvious that they are just doing it out of spite. Which would be sort of funny if it wasn't a state government.

If you are doing manual memory management in C++ you are either doing it wrong, or doing some hardcore low-level stuff.
I don't think any training is required for web development.

It could also be because the average person doesn't use his computer to actually do anything that requires a keyboard.
Punishment without trial. Lovely.
On the contrary, dandelion leaves make a decent substitute for rucola and pickled dandelion buds can be eaten as giant capers.

If your collection type has .begin() and .end() you can do
for (auto& v : collection) { ... }
...and 'v' will be a reference to the value_type of the collection that refers to the element currently being iterated over. It's basically short for
for (auto i = collection.begin(); i != collection.end(); ++i) { auto& v = *i; ...
}
You can of course also use it without the &, but then you make a local copy of every element.

I think 4chan has a board for exactly that.
Because then they would be stopped?

They usually don't need a reason.

Why would anyone expect average programmers to write well performing code in any language?
You can transfer tiny fractions of a bitcoin, so the number of bitcoins in existance isn't that important for liquidity. It's not like a stock.
