Trump simply because he's the only guy who's enough of an asshole to gently pull the Saudi king's ear close to him and whisper "I have penthouses for sale in the new Dubai Trump tower, and it's going to be YUGE. Do I write you down for two units?"
You really need to read up on C++ core. It deprecates several constructs and adds several safety mechanisms (owner, not_null) some of which are superior to Java in terms of potential errors.
Actually C# had already a freer license by the early 2000s. I distinctly remember pointing this out and people dismissing my concerns with Java since back then Sun was one of the good guys.
C++ is too low-level to replace Java and C#.
Modern, core C++ is about as high level as Java and without the JVM overhead. Read up on it. The C++ core as proposed by Bjarne has a good chance of becoming the Java replacement.
Sanders and Trump are the only ones actually listening to the American public.
Trump isn't listening to the public, he's pandering to the public.
I don't agree with Sanders' policies but at least he's self consistent.
Trump is just a snake oil salesman, depending on the good will of the American people. The same nice folks who voted for Bush Jr because he seemed like one of them, only to turn into one of the worst presidents in recent memory, blowing a trillion dollars in an unnecessary war (from the "fiscally responsible" party no less). Ditto with Trump, he's the likeable fellow who sells you a lemon at the used car lot.
Three? Try 15... I remember reading thirty years ago how fabs would fail once we reached dust size particles/visible light circuit size. For the first problem we got the humans outside the fab, for the second we moved to x-ray frequencies.
This whole "I think I should pay more, make me do it" crap is stupid.
It is. Fortunately that is now what they are saying. They are not asking for an opportunity to individually pay ore taxes. They are asking fr a collective arrangement in which all rich people pay more taxes.
This is not hard t comprehend. We organize a party and everybody chips in for a keg of beer, but once again we ran out of beer halfway through the party, so someone suggests: how about if we all chip in more money and we buy two kegs of beer?
And then some idiot (namely you) interjects and says "well you can always pay more if you want", ignoring the obvious fact that the proposal only works if everyone chips in.
Most people miss this. They say something like "how would I benefit since I *know* I would never take the bus", missing the fact that _other_ people taking the bus means less cars on the road, and hence your drive will be faster too.
You really have to stop making excuses for the bad behavior of a party. I usually vote Democrat, but if they put forth an incompetent candidate I won't vote for him/her. You on the other hand would say "well the other party also has incompetent candidates at times".
This is exactly how we ended up in this mess. People started voting on the basis of political lines, instead of the actual facts, wherever they might lead you to.
A while back we did a site visit to a bank mainframe room. They had one backup holdover of every mainframe model they had ever bought going back to day one, just in case they needed to rerun some old piece of software. You felt like you were traveling back in time as you went down the backup row.
Anyone who thinks Hillary isn't, at the very least, going to be indicted is delusional. Let me tell you about how seriously the government takes Top Secret information.
You could have said the exact same thing about Whitewater. All the noises were there that some indictment would come and in the end it never did. Same with Benghazi, when the hearings finally came in front of a republican panel nothing was found. How many times can they play this trick on you "look there's something there!" "where? where?" "oh never mind" before you catch up to it.
I'm sorry but you are wrong. She has been chased nonstop for 20 years by republicans and she has never been found guilty. If you investigate someone by 20 years and you cannot prove anything maybe there just isn't anything there.
Had you said she sometimes uses shady practices I might have agreed (which politician and/or millionaire doesn't?), but this "she's guilty because I say so" is just empty.
Thanks guys. One of the reasons Slashdot is faltering is because it didn't listen to the complaints from its users. Linking to better sources and unicode support are two well known ones. Thanks for working on those
May I suggest a third one? Edit post button.
I'm aware there is room for abuse to such functionality (mostly spamming by replacing original highly ranked content), but this can easily be obviated with simple rules such as: 20min window from first posting to make a change, only small diffs allowed.
It only cares what your value is. It is the ONLY true colorblind system in the world.
In theory yes, in practice people do the hiring and bring conscious and subconscious biases to the table. Moneyball is a (racially-neutral) example of biases being brought into the hiring process---sometimes inadvertently.

carry a weapon so that you can defend yourself or your loved ones if the need arises,
You are aware that you are many times more likely to accidentally shoot a member of your family than ever use a gun for defense, are you not?
So long as we are clear on that, be my guest, who am I to judge?
- Platform independent binaries?
Java doesn't have them either.
- Garbage collection?
Yup, if you stick to C++ core and use the owner facility you get better garbage collection than Java.
- Parser unfriendly (to say the least) grammar.
Oh puleeeze. No developer cares about this. You are grasping for straws.
C++ has pointers. Bzzt, Disqualified

C# is too MS-tied with a similar legal-greed risk

So you mean to say there is not one republican prosecutor in the United States who would take her on, like Ken Starr did to her husband? Wow.
What she did there was ignore 600 requests for extra security
The requests never reached her desk. Once again the accusation and the actual facts never quite align. What else is news?

Again where are the charges? Twenty years and counting and none are ever coming. I'm afraid time has come and gone to put up or shut up.
No mobster stood a 20 year focused investigation.
No, she is a criminal. She should be in prison
I'm sorry but you are wrong. She has been chased nonstop for 20 years by republicans and she has never been found guilty. If you investigate someone by 20 years and you cannot prove anything maybe there just isn't anything there.
Had you said she sometimes uses shady practices I might have agreed (which politician and/or millionaire doesn't?), but this "she's guilty because I say so" is just empty.
It's been 23 years since they were founded. That's far from expecting immediate results.
Boston Dynamics, producing quality robot videos since 1992.
Kiva Systems (now Amazon Robotics) on the other hand producing less flash but actual robots one can use.
Mayer hasn't quite shone with her performance, but do you think anyone else would have done any better?
Yahoo might well be beyond repair.
Duh! If I'm going to contradict someone I make sure to double check my figures, which I did, using statistics from the EIA.
Just because you are used to making things up without sources doesn't mean everyone else does too.
Easy: actual generation varies according to demand, and demand is highest in the summer.

With nuclear capacity factors close to 90%
Erh no. They reach 90% in the summer but throughout the year they tend to run at 60-70% capacity.
