So let me get this straight, the absence of evidence is mere proof of their culpability? Not that you are biased or anything.
They have been accused for 25 years non-stop of the many crimes; and while some sleazy stuff has been found, under extensive examination by a Republican prosecutor (kenneth starr) and a republican head of investigation (FBI) nothing worth prosecuting was ever found.
Perl is proven to be fundamentally broken. Here are two very entertaining videos about how to exploit weird array casting, hashes and so on. I really think every Perl programmer should have seen it.
What do you say about this criticism and the exploited flaws?
LW: "Doctor, it hurts when I do this!"
"Well then, don't do that."
This answer is a cop-out to a clear flaw found in the language. That is, list flattening. There are two basic common errors when implementing your first interpreter. They happen because the natural efficient, elegant, but incorrect solution lead you that way. The errors are, namely, dynamic scoping and list flattening.
Heck even LISP created by giants of computer science had the dynamic scope error which shows you how easy is to fall in that trap. Dynamic scoping comes from searching in the dynamic environment \pi recursively for the declaration of the given value, instead of searching upwards in the lexical symbol table for the current value. A similar naive representation leads to flattened lists. Trust me, been there, done that myself, both errors. If you design your interpreter cleanly, the code pulls you in that direction.
Lisp fixed that error early on. Perl creator Larry Wall solution to "break pedal doesn't work" is "stop using the break pedal" (yay car analogy!). Seriously, that is what you have to say about that noob error?
Presumably the basic tax deduction would go away and taxes would increase more steeply thereafter. In other words, people making over $30K would see no noticeable increase in income. This is a program meant for people at the very bottom of the wage scale, or about 40 million people at $10K each this is $400 billion which is less than social programs.
Not at all, a composition of independent tests that have high false positives is still very useful. Search engines are an example of such. They collate weak signals with high false positives into a single ranking function, and if many of them give high values then the chances that you now have a false positive are rather low.
People who are often surprised about this at first, but if you think about it just for a little while, it makes sense.
This. C++ has undergone four major revisions in the last 20 years and finally a small powerful core is starting to emerge there. Add the issues with Java because of Oracle ownership and the choice for a major compiled programming language is C++.
This is no longer the case. A quality, well built Camry, Civic, BMW or Accord loses about 10% when you drive it off the lot. Some American cars as well as some high end cars on the other hand do lose a lot more of their value on possession sometimes even more than 25%.
In many other countries judges are way more empowered to issue summarily dismissals on the face of a ridiculous trial. In the US the standard for summary dismissals is much too high.
AI has made steady progress over the last twenty years. Nothing has happened that puts it over the threshold of a revolution. New applications will be found, and new software would be developed, just like algorithms and information retrieval were key to Search Engines and Google Maps, but this didn't mean an era of algorithms and IR descended upon us.
The more AI buys into the hype the stronger the backblow will be when it fails to deliver. Read up about the AI winter which happened in exactly the same way in the 1980s.
According to you and the aforementioned late doctor, these people are apparently no longer human and can be disposed of. No matter that many people who are comatose and on life support eventually recover from their injuries/illnesses and resume their lives.
Indeed current practice is to disconnect those people when there are no signs of brain activity. And no, despite what Hollywood tells you not "many people" recover from Vegetative state (VS). Very, very few ever do, and this is often attributed to misdiagnosis of VS.
Sure thing, somewhere between zero and 40 weeks the fetus becomes a person. I'm equally sure that this is not zero neither its 40. Prochoice people for the most part acknowledge the later (there are heavy restrictions for abortions past week 18 in most prochoice countries), pro-life reject the former on dubious religious grounds which apply only to certain JudeoChristian branches (eg in some Jewish traditions life doesn't start until 24hours after birth).
Additionally, whatever number we agree to (eg point of viability) this still doesn't imply no abortion past that since we as a society are quite comfortable sacrificing one life for the benefit of others. And I'm talking here capital punishment, wars, castle doctrine, self-defence, and so on.
Ah the no true Scotsman fallacy. If the indicator is up, then it is not real.
You killed your own argument by your hyperbole. If you had claimed that the recovery is not as strong as it might seem, this is clearly a point for debate. However you went for the "cows fly while playing the violin" which is so blatantly false that is not worth debating.
Go back to the data and have a look at it with a clear cool head (somehow I doubt you are capable on this) and then we can talk.
Kurzweil also predicted that we won't see AIs with full "human-level" language abilities until 2029
I'll reserve the day then because AI-ers in general and Kurzweil in particular have such a stellar track record when it comes to delivering on their promises.
After this, if I still had my company, I wouldn't touch Java with a ten foot pole. I'd be at the whim of whatever Oracle executive failed to meet last quarter figures. Find a true unencumbered language and use that instead.

Yeah, I otherwise always trust CEOs and politicians. Marissa is the only one among them that I wouldn't trust. /sarcasm

A parliament that cannot propose legislation is a parliament in name only.
In Canada, private member/opposition party bills go nowhere. In practice only the cabinet proposes laws.
This is no longer the case. A quality, well built Camry, Civic, BMW or Accord loses about 10% when you drive it off the lot. Some American cars as well as some high end cars on the other hand do lose a lot more of their value on possession sometimes even more than 25%.
Airplanes are public transit, and while they have windows almost all people shut down the screens and watch movies instead.

I won't waste my time debunking each of your incorrect points individually, but here's one as a sample.
Consumer confidence was falling
US Consumer Confidence Index is at 94.2 up from a historical low of 25 eight years ago.
U of Michigan Consumer sentiment is at 94 up from a low of 55 eight years ago.
Those are facts in direct contradiction that we are worse than eight years ago, which was your initial claim.
But you are right about one thing. I was too generous in describing your claims as hyperbole.
Ah the no true Scotsman fallacy. If the indicator is up, then it is not real.
You killed your own argument by your hyperbole. If you had claimed that the recovery is not as strong as it might seem, this is clearly a point for debate. However you went for the "cows fly while playing the violin" which is so blatantly false that is not worth debating.

right to life for a person
There's your problem. A clump of cells otherwise known as a cygote is not a person. Go back to square one and try again.
Right, because it's not like everyone saw miniaturization coming from a mile away. And no, no one ever sold a desktop by saying our box is bigger.
Btw, the Compaq portable computer was announced in 1982 merely a year after the introduction of the original IBM PC.

pushrods? camshaft? valves? valve springs? rocker arm? oil pump? gas pump? axles? bearings? ballbearings within? brakes? steering wheel? pedals? starter motor? windshield wipers? water pump (and components therein)? differential (and components therein)? various belts and pulleys? ...I'm getting bored.
Heck, I'm pretty sure a modern car has over 100 ball bearings alone.
A simplistic solution that at first sounds reasonable to a real important problem, but in retrospect is totally stupid.
Is that you Donald Trump?
There are completely concurrent garbage collectors for java,
Completely? no. CMS and G1 still have stop the world events. The ones in CMS are not insignificant.
And you need to be both garbage collected/statically typed.
GC as implemented in Java (stop the world mode) is a bug, not a feature.
GC as implemented in C++ core using unique/shared pointers is the way to go.
Pay attention, the implementation is free, not the language itself. Java has no ECMA specification, hence the lawsuit.
C++, maybe you've heard of it?
Heck nowadays even C# is freer than Java and that is saying something.
