The Metro screen *is* basically the start menu. You've been able to type things in the start menu to find them since at least Vista. God damn, did you even try to think your reasoning through before posting it?
You're entirely missing the point while getting hung up on 'repeating'.
Why should I have to write something like this:
std::map<std::string, std::map<std::string, foo_t>>::const_iterator ci = some_complex_map.begin()
...when the compiler already knows what the type of 'ci' has to be and in fact will bitch at me if I get it wrong (perhaps it's supposed to be bar_t instead of foo_t)? At that point you're just jumping through hoops to tick some box in the parser's innards.
A lot of the time, as in your example, you don't even care what the type is. You're just looking for a thing in a thing container.
but they seem to get it pretty well, at least as well as Windows.
No, they don't, it's just that the Linux enthusiasts think they do. Which is kind of the point. One personal example: I was trying to figure out how to turn on focus-follows-mouse in Ubuntu, and I couldn't find anything obvious, so I googled it. Turned out there's like 3 different way to do it, at least one of which requires installing additional packages. Who thinks that's user-friendly?
So you're saying Russia is doing this out of concern for the privacy of their beloved citizens? Would you be interested in a beautiful antique bridge in Brooklyn I have for sale?
I think it's not just about memory management but more about understanding what's really going on in the CPU while your program is running, and memory management is just a part of that.
Some of this stuff is still very relevant today. If you want to understand how a buffer overflow exploit works you need to understand what's happening in your program at the level of bits and bytes in the processor.
It wouldn't hurt to take an assembly language course, preferably one that uses some small 8-bit processor. Nothing gives you an appreciation for the mountain of layers of software piled on top of the CPU these days like having to write your own function to divide two numbers.
They say that almost 20% of the world's population is Chinese. However there are no Chinese people working in any of the offices on the same floor of the building as me. Therefore I conclude that all these so-called experts are wrong and there are in fact no Chinese people.
I mean anyone can do that for their own personal use anyway! For homework I want you to analyze this sentence and find the key phrase that makes it different from what Aereo is doing.

Yeah, they should have just invented Python in 1950.
Go ahead and try it. Create an array, index it with an immediate value of negative one, and compile. It won't complain at all
It complains with -Wall -O2.
Except nothing in that article mentions anything about weather conditions.

Um, if you're on the Metro screen you type "notepad" and press enter. Gosh Windows is complex.
Except Ubuntu has a bazillion customizations.

Please explain how a helper class is trivial compared to a simple inline initialization.
I don't blame the guy, why stay on a sinking ship?
Especially when you're the one who blasted the holes in the hull.

now that we have a fast, cheap and ubiquitous network.
We do?
Will my software run on 7 or 8? NO.
Sorry about your crappy software. I have yet to find something that won't run on 8.

it is difficult to get working with various Enterprise Java applications without disabling Protected Mode and completely unsecuring it
Wait, are you complaining IE is too secure?

These dimensions of yours; how big are they? Last time I bought one when I got it home and opened the box I couldn't even see it.
Difference is, at least light bulbs serve a useful function.
Well, that's an improvement. Episodes 1, 2 and 3 were documentaries on how not to make a movie.
No, it's not.
Yes, it is. The fact that you as a niche user can't do something doesn't mean the OS is bad.
They're not talking about the interface. They're talking about the underlying nuts-and-bolts stuff.

They just need a catchier name.
"Dollars"?
This is why I now only use open source.
Yeah, because it's not like there have been any major security flaws found lying around for years in open source software lately.
Whoa, a [b]whole[/b] twenty gigabytes? Man, that's about a $1.20 in hard drive space.
I mean anyone can do that for their own personal use anyway!
