The average slashdotter can't move out of their mother's basement. They are ready for the Internet, sure. But for real life? Out there in the scary world??!!!
If IBM wants to spend their money to enhance our artistic world, then that is their right and our privilege to enjoy the results. It is none of your business
The problem with the demise of newspapers (that people pay for) is not the newspaper, its the loss of journalism and the rise of fake news Nd anyone oublishing any unresearched crap they want.
Poeple will pay for something they can hold in their hands. This is going to be he end of us.
No, the problem is that they can't afford to. If Barnes and Noble kept all the book on all the new stuff in Development all the time 99% of those books would not get bought, the stores would be 5 times larger, so the rent (and staffing costs) would go up and all of this for a very small group of niche consumers. And since the consumers are spread over 60 cities this whole setup has to be replicated. They would go bankrupt. Besides, if you ask Barnes and Noble to order you a book they would gladly do so (I suspect they would buy it on Amazon and add a 20% markup)
The only way to sell niche stuff where you have a very wide selection of items with few sales to a very widely dispersed audience is to do it online. Hence Amazon.
There are some subtle differences between different options. Would you be in 100 pieces? 1000? Turned into molecular mist? Have the quarks in the protons disintegrate? Would your mother recognize you again? Would there be any DNA left of would it be disintegrated in a fireball from hell?
It also takes 10 times the amount of effort than Java to get to that point because you restrict yourself to the point that you have to reinvent all the wheels.
Funny you should mention Lua as example here. Inventing. new Language to make C useful is a proof that C is problematic, yes?
Java is a crummy language (which did not stop meusi g it for 10 years) but the real key here is the JVM. There are many other good languages running on a very stable and tested server platform.
As for GUIs in Java, just no. Bad.however, 15 years ago it was a viable choice.
Customising a CMS for the needs, tex, workflow of a specific company had nothing to do witn FLOSS. It is live thevdifference between a builder and his tools. Everyone knows how to use a hammer and saw.
The design of these things is pretty much OSS ( ok, OSH) but a specific building? Not so much. But it is OK since I don't care about other peoples websites. I care about the quality of the tools that are used to build my website.

Fitbit is exactly the same. No paired watch, no nothing. All of the stuff that you need a phone for with the Apple Watch? Same with Fitbit.
I can see this though. Even back in the day of 4 button Casios watches had a crummy UI because of space constraints
Just be careful about getting rusty there.
Purely out of academic interest, how fast is this thing? How does it compete with, say, a 16 core Xeon or Threadripper workstation?
There is going to be one more ghost, so no problem
A ring i meant. Thank you spell checker:(
Running on a few ing on your finger, no less
No it is not
You did seem to manage to write using these letter things on this website though. As for reading the question, I am not even going to ask!
> Fonts and typefaces are not technology.
You have no idea what you are talking about.
> THEY DO NOT BECOME OUTDATED.
Yes they bloody well do.

HR decides, not you! And they simply see hiring as some burocratic thing.
16 gigs?!!! 128 More like it.
Agreed. And amazin has just ditched their DVD service. Idiots. Lots of things there not not netflix

If you want to throw around that much weight you better hope your CPU hardware was designed by professional engineers.
I think if you think you are going to learn the design of a CPU from scratch you are deluded.
Thank you sir

Equifucks make everyone's between the legs skills equal, regardless of color, race or religion
It is more important that you have nice things between your legs and know how to use it.
EJB is probably the most singular reason people hate Java so much. You just ruined my appetite for just mentioning it :)
