Very, very, very well said, sir. Our doom is exactly this destructive habit of "grow at all costs" when it is impossible to grow indefinitely. Thing that any child perceives, but CEOs are apparently completely unable to understand.
I would like to agree with you. But as a Brazilian I am sorry to inform you that it is merely another case of our judges who think they are gods and wanting to show who is the boss (but without the necessary competence to do so). If the case involved a "mere ordinary mortal" like me, they would not do anything about
I totally agree. By the comments above I suspect that the problem is actually the lack of quality developers, if you only have "script kiddies" then makes sense to keep the production environment away from them.
But what happens when is the admin of the production environment that does not know what he's doing? And when the developer knows what he is doing but can not do anything because his hands are tied (without access to production)?
Right, but as a practical example I've worked in a power plant where the operating system used is an OS/2.
And why they still use the OS/2 today? Because it does the job, is not connected to any unsecured network that could be used to 0-day attacks (nobody's is stupid to plugging something like that on the internet) and runs happily on an equivalent to a 486 (using backup at hardware level, three separate machines operating as one like a "raid1"). It sits quietly in a corner doing his job and does it very well, there is no reason to replace it by a windows7 or a Unix "simply because it is obsolete."
I also did this with my netbook. But remember that outside the U.S. and Europe an SSD is still seen as a "luxury item" and charged as such. I for example have to pay three times more for the exact same SSD you buy in the U.S..
I believe there is not much point in trying to make the exhaust "stealth" (against radar waves) when she is a HUGE source of infrared radiation. And as far as I know there is no way to hiding the heat of an exhaust turbine of who is looking at it from a distance. So it would make more sense to have an exhaust that works better as such than one that sacrifice performance to be "stealth".
Well, Postwar japaneses have a lesson to give here. Start copying, understand how it works and then try to improve. Since the jet of the photos is similar to the F-35 (or maybe F-22? Both?) but have two turbines (then is not just a copy), I suspect that the Chinese are entering the part of trying to improve.
Good luck trying to get a 1 terabyte SSD. But you raise an interesting question: Can an SSD dive in insulating oil without causing long-term damage to it?
Well, a pirate is a stupid, lazy and and cowardly thing. They go after easy prey, if the alleged victim sends a.50 message they run away before you can say "hi".
I thought the same thing. It's much easier to notice errors in your code and how the whole thing works when using a machine that is slow or purposely slow.
The problem is that the stock market should be used to companies achieve resources and investors, paying dividends in return. But the current system has become a casino. Try to try to become an investor in a place full of sociopaths who buy a stock to sell it in the next millisecond, where prices change faster than you can blink.

That for now. The next step of RIAAs: Declare that any audovisual content is now owned by them.

I thought the same thing as you. And I think it shows how much the "businessmen" are hopelessly fucked today.

Humm... Time to nuke eastern Texas from orbit.
If it is not broke, do not fix it. If your system (which can be huge and cost millions) is working perfectly well on XP, why update?
Remember that there are advantages in having two engines instead of one, not just the fact of whether it is cheaper than making a single large one.

I wonder what year you were born to write such nonsense.

These are the ones who are too stupid to run. And in this case what you should do is eliminate them without questions.
Well, a pirate is a stupid, lazy and and cowardly thing. They go after easy prey, if the alleged victim sends a .50 message they run away before you can say "hi".
Exact. In international waters no country have official police power, so if pirates appear you're alone. Be ready to this.

To understand why what they do today is considered gambling, it is necessary to recall the original purpose of the idea of a stock market.
Thanks, the best answer to the question I saw today.

Modpoints: When appear a worthy comment you already spent them.
I think your answer is the best I've seen for the issue.
I give up. Understand what you want.
You are just "yet another dumb guy" for me, the mark is just to remember myself to do not consider what you say.
