You, sir, have not been paying attention. I would provide links but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't follow them anyway and it's not my job to educate you.
I tried swapping back and forth. Found it's much easier to install cygwin on windows and ssh to a linux host when I need something that cygwin doesn't provide. No more rebooting, run linux and windows side by side.
It really does seem like a baby+bath water out the window type thing. the X12 link at the bottom of the article actually was much more interesting to me and seemed like a much more sane architecture roadmap.
A car is kept for convenience of transportation. If you're work commute is all you have a car for and it is short, take a bike or bus or start a van pool and don't bother with owning a car. This is my only issue with EVs right now. It would have to be a secondary car dedicated to driving back and forth to work. I would not be able to take it to my cabin, camping, las vegas, or any of the other thing I would like to do that would push the range to it's very max or beyond. The cost of a dedicated comuter would have to be very low, like under $10k USD. Otherwise I'll get a multipurpose car/truck/suv so I can do something other than drive back and forth to work.
Yea, just like how the word "totalled" evolved to mean a destroyed item. Initially being short hand slang for, "the total damages over value the cost of the item."
Sorry, but the language doesn't get mangled, it evolves. You may not like the direction and may even call it "stupid" but it will either catch on and become the next norm that some pedantic prick can complain about in the future, or it will fall to the wayside.
It doesn't even have to be on the scale of revolutionizing manufacturing and transportation. It could be something as simple as a customer wanting to automate a manual process where someone manually moves some files from a->b->c->d->e which would be quite simple to automate. but it may be much better to have the files stored in a central location and pushed from O->[abcde]
All to often I see people wanting to move a manual process to a computer process that is nearly identical and productivity drops because of it. Users usually complain about how it was so much easier to store it on index cards in a file cabinet. They want a computer solution to the task, but just ask for the task to be moved onto a computer. There is a difference, sometimes a huge one.
...but they can be trusted to say what is most important to them at the time.
No they can't. If you are delivering to customer requests you will always be a follower and never succeed. You need to anticipate what the customers need. As with the I guess made up quote attributed to Henry Ford, "If I listened to my customers I'd have been trying to make faster horses." Whether he said it or not, the statement is true. Customers know what they have and just want it to be faster/better/etc you need to find out what they really need.
They may not be meant to replace PCs but they are at alarming rates. The only reason it scares me is because I like the cheap gaming rigs we can get now. As the pure email/web browser users are no longer purchasing PCs due to their iPADs and Android Tablets doing that better than a PC as they are now.
The exact same thing was said 100 years ago, what happens when it doesn't take 50% of the population to produce food? now it's less than 3% required to provide enough food for everyone. The other 97% have to figure something else out. Programming isn't even a survival required skill. the world could already survive with 0 programmers. As we need less programmers we'll need more of something else. Same thing happend with mechanics in the 50-60s.
Only because the only given choice in the US is "A kick in the nuts or a punch in the face." The idea that we could just have neither is so far in the distant past that the vast majority has forgot it's an option. Remember, "WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING" and the "Obstructionists in Congress are halting progress" rhetoric. "What are you just going to do nothing?"
This could still be used as a weapon. HIV is already practically designed to kill gay men and promiscuous women. They could use this to perfect that combo even more.

That hasn't stopped thousands of other DMCA take-down notices.

I'm pretty sure everyone knows I poop. I hide it more for the sake of others than myself.

Yep, none for me.

This was cut and pasted from today about 30 seconds before the previous post. Not saying the article is wrong just that one of the two is wrong.

It's a copy of data, data doesn't have ownership, it just is. They have a copy of it, if you deleted your copy then you no longer have a copy of it.

Wouldn't it just be called google glass?

I think you forgot to mention the go faster faeries that helped push it. Their invisible so I understand how you'd miss that part.

Yes, I say we need a lot more of doing nothing...
Umm, because "Oil is not a local industry. Prices are international"

Thank you.
