  1. With this a monkey can be a programmer, right?

    Well pay a monkey? Why?
    Well pay a worker in a job a monkey can do? Why?

    * all respect to the monkeys :P

  2. Re:So they can be even less competent? on AI-Driven Python Code-Completion Tool 'Kite' Attracts $17M In Investments (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    Throw AI at something, to make hype (an attract dumb investment)!

  3. Code-completion is very good nowadays, with almost any editor (https://atom.io/ is a very good one...). More than this is needed? To what? Generate lazy and bad programmers?

  5. Re:I think Telegram will be the better of 2 evils. on Facebook's Plan To Merge WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger Sounds a Privacy Alarm (technologyreview.com) · · Score: 1

    https://telegram.org/ has a huge advantage over WhatssApp: your phone number is not shared with all members of a group (I avoid to participate in WhatsApp groups just for this)

  6. Time to look for a WhatsApp replacement..

    https://telegram.org/ is not the answer here? It's interface is very similar to WhatsApp: easily to make friends and family members to migrate :P

  7. It has removable battery? And a headphone jack? on Is the iPhone SE the 'Best Minimalist Phone' Right Now? (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    So, no!

  9. Man, you need to use Terminator

  10. Re:Package management to the rescue on More Than Half of PC Applications Installed Worldwide Are Out-of-Date (helpnetsecurity.com) · · Score: 1

    It's why popular linux distros are so superior to windoze: very good package management, automatic updates to all software used (unique exception here is http://atom.io/ that I manually update)

    ... to creating petitions to promote them!

  13. My only (and unique) "flagship" was (and still is) a S5, buyed refurbished after 2 years of the launch, mainly by the removable battery and http://lineageos.org/ :P

    Only Apple has an iPhone data? Apps can't access it?

    "advertising" is based on lies...

  21. I'm in a Windows-free (except for desktops on some works...) since 2007 - I'm an ex http://serpro.gov.br/ worker: even the desktop on my work there was Ubuntu-based!

  22. Second-rate, third-rate FOSS that just makes productivity other than software deving a pain to use?

    More users / popularity will fix this in near future (today, several pro-software have native linux support - I worked in http://serpro.gov.br/ : most of the Desktops are linux-only [Ubuntu, today...], and the tech support people love it! [very few idiotic problems, like virus spread...])
