    Yes. However waking up is not guaranteed.

    So everyone should be rich is your answer? How generous of you... [/sarcasm]

    You can also not fly if you can't afford it. Where exactly did you get idea that you are entitled to as much leg room as you want for as little money as you are willing to pay? Do you also have habit of going into five start hotels and demanding their best room for price of flea-infested motel?

    There is a point where the pursuit of money has to end

    Of course, let's turn airlines into charities or nationalize them. For greater glory of proletariat!

    and causing needless discomfort to paying customers is right about at that point.

    You are getting the exact service you are paying for. Waving around your cheapest ticket around while demanding special treatment for being a PAYING CUSTOMER won't work very well.

    Either you are extremely unlucky or I am lucky. I have been flying twice a month on average for past 4 years (mostly short trips in EU, several longer to South-east Asia and Canada), but my baggage has never been lost.

    I always wondered why they call it business class when no business I have ever been involved with has ever paid for a business class ticket.

    It is class for businessmen (owners, board members, C-level executives), not for lowly peons making business trips.

    TL;DR
    Stop complaining and buy business class if economy is too hard on your delicate knees.

  12. Re:The idea of variant (var) on Ask Slashdot: What Are the Strangest Features of Various Programming Languages? · · Score: 1

    First of all you are confusing strong typing and static typing. The word you are looking for is static typing. Some languages which are strongly typed are not statically typed.

    Secondly, the var keyword is still statically typed. It simply infers types based on the code. It is quite helpful and I wouldn't mind if java had it. For example, suppose you want a dictionary with a key of type string and a value of an IEnumerable of Tuples of strings and ints. This: var dictionary = new Dictionary>>();

    is much more readable than this: Dictionary>> dictionary = new Dictionary>>();

    Check lombok library. It adds implicit typing ('val a=new HashMap();') and lots of other syntactic sugar like auto-setters/getters, autogenerated constructors, extension methods and more.

    Well, I am sorry for whatever bumfuckistan you live in. However for most of us speed was going up like crazy in last 10 years. Currently I have 50Mbit/s and that's only because 100Mbit/s would make no sense with wifi. 10 years ago ... I think I had 1Mbit/s.

    Ok, sorry - obviously suggesting that your are angry is utter nonsense just like you say. I mean starting your comment with "Holy shit, you're fucking garbage." is sure sign of calm and collected person. So what do you do when you are angry? Scream incoherently and throw chairs?

    Funny how you don't seem to mind that every other comment on this page lumps everyone who disagrees under label of 'misogynist'.

    Dude, "we" is first person plural. And it's reasonable to make inferences about other non-morons.

    Yes, however you should not try it since your psychotic rants on this page put your firmly in 'morons' camp. Or at least 'people with Tourette syndrome and serious anger management issues' camp.

    How about we ... don't? Women are supposedly about half of gamers now, so it's not like they are some small oppressed minority. Stop your white-knighting and let them take care of themselves for once.

    Where this notion that women can't do anything until there is some 'outreach' project comes from? If feminists spent more time actually *doing* something useful instead of endless whining, game developers would be already much more diversified.

    I doubt it. According to feminists, any male-dominated groups are inherently misogynist and have to be destroyed or forcibly 'feminized'. Of course women-only communities are just fine and example of woman empowerment.
