Let's face it: How much new code have you really written over the course of your career? Most of the code I've worked with is legacy and it's not going away.
C and its slightly less unattractive cousin C++ are here to stay. Companies have too much money invested in their working code base to just wipe it away and start over with some new wiz-bangy language.
I'm still trying to picture a boat the size of a skateboard with a 1.5" propellor going up and down 20 foot waves. How can it go in a straight line under conditions like that?
I was wondering why a Kort Nozzle & Propeller were selected for propulsion. A wave propulstion system would be potentially more reliable for the long haul.
At my work the PCs are locked down in Windows to prevent them from working. Also, they're explicitly forbidden in the IT policy. Use them and get fired.
The distinction is legalistic-sounding to me. If your company policy is to not install unapproved software on your computer the fact it doesn't use an installer doesn't matter. You're still "installing" an unapproved executable on your computer. Even if it's a java.jar file.
You have no reasonable expectation of privacy in a public place anyway. I can't speak for Canada, but in the US case law is already being made that establishes that recording in public places is not an invasion of privacy. This includes photography, videography and audio.
It applies not only to the public but to government agencies as well.

Someone already beat me to these but s/he was an anonymous coward so s/he doesn't count.
I listed phasers first cuz they're cooler.

First they took away the Reset button my my PC. Now this. When will it every end?
Actually the screens would get fouled pretty quickly too.

Just cough up the extra bucks and get a BeagleBone.

Not to be confused with fish pie, which sounds nasty (or Norwegian)
Only non-programmers use the term "software programs".
I applaud your ferreting out the 0.1% of television that's actually not drivel.
That's what television is.
Linux users are always offered Motel 6
Who's smug? Mac or PC users?
Well we're still allowed to bring in smart phones and personal notebook PCs. We just can't connect them to the network.

If OP's company doesn't allow unapproved programs on their computers, they definitely won't allow USB sticks.

Only the police and military should have more than 2 channels.

Didn't think so. Best forgotten anyway.
I thought the Hawaiian royal family owned all the land and you only rented the land from them and paid a yearly land rent.

Took the words right out of my mouth. "Duh"
College tuition is a page right out of Econ 101: Supply and Demand. Too many (cheap) dollars chasing relatively few goods (schools) = inflation.
I'd probably suck at that test too.
C'mon proofreaders, get with it.
