I'd say, from your example, that the people of that village behaved in an exemplary way: they had a herd of pigs destroyed by some vagrant who chased them into the water, and yet they didn't come out and kill the bastard, they politely asked him to leave. The only deluded person in your example is Jesus (and probably the two 'possessed' men - drunks, probably).
Pads are a gimmick in search of a serious application. If your class plays angry birds instead of taking notes, then it's because the game was made for touch-screens, while typing (real, productive typing, I mean, like the one you would use when taking notes) isn't.
It's a fluff piece about something the author overheard and assumed was trendy, but there is a real problem with BYOD (only then in the inverted sense of the article): people don't mind to be separated from their workstations when they leave work, and they willingly let them be administrated by someone else. But they will scream bloody murder when they are separated from their smartphones or pads, and they will certainly not allow anyone else to administer them.
Which has led to, for example, soldiers bringing their iPhones on missions, and running where-are-your-buddies software on them, and using that instead of their own blue-force-tracking systems. Obviously, armies are none too content with this, and try to forbid this (won't work), propose alternatives (badly supported/supportable - Apple, Google and Samsung just aren't very big on allowing you try pry into their systems and implement crypto on them, and they bring out new versions every half year), or they just bury their heads in the sand (which is what really happens).
I'm not willing to pony up 300 swiss Francs, so can anybody tell me, basically, how it is different ? Is it just the stuff that has creeped through in the last few years by means of gcc, or is it totally new ?
It's probably that the website with pictures of his dog backed by mysql is blazing fast and doesn't need this, and that therefore he thinks that *nobody* will need this.
Because the physical storage of private keys (for when I reformat me drive, switch computers, do whatever that obligates the new installation of the private key) is troublesome, that's why. Also: because we're at RSA-4096 now, for reasonable security (that is, for my job at least), and that's just *damn long*. O, and thirdly, because good, simple, elliptic curve implementations (in *C*, not C++, thank you very much) are left wanting at the moment.
They're being 'juvenile' because they're playing for their own crowd. Iran's leaders are sitting on a time-bomb of youngsters that don't like 'em very much either. By inventing plots they try to keep 'em still.
Somewhere around the same time that Java entered the market, everyone suddenly became a consultant or a manager. I'm not saying there is a causal relationship, or even a correlation. I'm saying it was a sign of the times: no more people to actually get their hands dirty. The mindset around Java suffered from this: seven hundred different 'frameworks', but no-one to actually implement - say - a PDF-generating library. Because that's menial work. We're building the future - we don't do that kind of stuff.
And so, ironically, the language that was supposed to stop people from re-inventing the wheel, made everybody re-invent the wrench.
At this moment, I cannot install fedora core 16 without it wiping my entire disk, because 'it does not recognize my partitions'. It wants to live on one big partition of type 'GPT' (Guid based partitioning), and damn everyone else !
Yeah, and girls that wear short skirts are clearly asking for it. What you're proposing is the wrong way around: the rule is the rule; these labs don't exist for the pleasure of working there. And nerds clearly still don't have a clue of how they are perceived by the rest of society. Here's a hint: you don't improve your own image by resorting to dangerous and childish behavior. It will only make the ones in charge come down on you harder.

The guy may not have been a pleasure to work with, but if this is not a sign of sloppiness and arrogance (and severe lack of human compassion and discipline), then I don't know what is.

Well for starters, don't use Clavulanic acid on cows. And punish, and then I mean *severely* punish, vets who try to cheat on this.
"And the United States, which if you believe the media is the most racist and intolerant nation in the world, has a black President."
Is that so? Maybe he's white. How can you tell?

as long as we're having discussions like these.

And that's why we trust the CIA.
You had registers? Luxury! We had one one-bit register and we had to remember its state.

People - dissident or otherwise - should not for their safety rely on technology that can be listened to.

Is that the so-called 'birthday attack' ?

It had to do with the personality of the respective 'owners'.
