I'm assuming this is an argument for using Linux, where OpenSSH server and client work out of the box and have been thoroughly tested by millions? Of course you wouldn't need or use SSH unless you were doing CLI, so it's pretty obvious that you are a clueless troll.
"Why not just compare it to a normal human language, and say that writing a program is like writing a choose-your-own-adventure novel?"
Because comparing it to a human language would be stupid, and comparing software development to writing a novel doubly so. A Computer language is like a Human language in the same way a computer is like a human.
When you write a novel you do the whole thing yourself. You don't use portions of text written by others over which you have minimal control, which might be rewritten later and affect your story negatively. Your errors can't sneak in to publication only to come back later and cause hundreds of thousands of people to have their personal information exposed to identity thieves.
If you are telling people that a computer language is like a human language, it is you that needs someone to explain what programming is to you.
That makes you look condescending even though it is true most of the time. I have found that if I just sit in front of a computer, open up some files, and start explaining they will tell me"That is really complicated. I could never do that." Then they know it is true, and instead of coming off like a condescending jerk you get the cred you deserve.
Your local Salvation Army has a great record of paying ridiculous salaries to their "Captains" and "Generals" as well as giving them lavish homes to live in and nice new cars to drive, as well as exploiting addicts actually. I'm not sure where you got the idea they did much for those in need.
You clearly didn't follow the link and read PEP 8. None of these are actually issues. You are the classic "OMFG... It's easy to be stupid with language features. The language sucks!" fool. Every language allows idiots to be idiots.
Name an editor that can't handle spaces. Simply follow PEP 8 and your problems disappear. You would be amazed how many problems can be solved by gaining a basic level of competence before giving up.
If you must be logged in to access that data, then it isn't publicly available, so has nothing to do with what we are talking about, however, if you violate TOS and disseminate the data it is not a criminal act, but rather a civil matter, because you violated a contract.
False accusations abound in the real world. Prisons are full of men who wronged a woman, or the woman perceived a wrong, and she fabricated a story of assault or worse. I myself had a woman claim I assaulted her (and I never met her before; it was I over a parking space). Luckily her testimony contradicted the laws of physics. It's good you found a good woman. Plenty of those exist too, and I am not saying their aren't plenty of legitimate cases either. But the world of male / female interaction isn't as simple as you think it is I'm afraid.
Great, so like with Bush and Iraq we have "mission accomplished" already. I wonder how long until the Trotards will declare "mission re-accomplished "?
Faux? ROTFLMAO. It isn't about how many people are employed. 100% employment might mean everyone is working two jobs but can still barely feed their family while the rich get richer off their backs.
I didn't read much of your post because your first sentence shows that you are new to the technology world but think you know it all already. Also, you should learn about paragraphs.
The "Al Gore invented the Internet" meme wasn't even funny to those of us who belong on Slashdot back in the days it was popular. It is especially lame in 2017.
Think of it this way. If the FCC ruled tomorrow that everyone who has an internet connection must ship their firstborn child to a neighboring state, by your argument they couldn't sue because state lines are being crossed.
"If Democrats really cared about net neutrality, they would have codified it into law. "
So if they cared about it they would do what they are doing, but clearly they don't? Brilliant. No wonder you think Trump is "smart".,

You replied to the wrong article. The question asked was how to explain programming, not how to avoid doing so in social interactions at a party.

That is an interesting fact. Unfortunately you just pulled it out of your ass.

I'm not even going to waste my time addressing your stupidity. Just accept the fact that you are incompetent and move on with your pathetic life.
You should probably learn HTML, specifically the "pre" tag.
Your issue is with idiots, not Python. You should thank Python for making them easier to spot.
I am dumbfounded by your stupidity.

Wow, a grammar NeoNazi with a Trump-like grasp of English.
It wasn't a standard, It was a regulation. Two different things.

Trump. Making America Great Again the way Inspector Clouseau solves crimes!

You think this because you believe that everything a politician does is about personal gain, and you think that because you are a Trotard.
I can certainly see why you would want to trade your "kingdom" for some brains.
That would be the opposite of open and free actually.
