Oh sure, it could be some shadowy effort by the government to destroy bitcoin and its supporters. Or it could be that the government doesn't care about you at all and what you are seeing is the result of monumental incompetence on the part of the exchanges.
Yeah, no. One is a company deciding of their own free will where to locate their business. The other is the government attempting to enact legally-sanctioned discrimination.
It's pretty much the same when it comes to CLI vs GUI
OK, but sometimes the GUI is hammer (held the correct way) and CLI is a sledgehammer. Yeah, the sledge can probably drive in a small nail with one well-aimed swing. But it's really heavy, and if you get it wrong you'll flatten the nail and possibly break the thing you were trying to nail.
Sometimes you just want to drive in a nail, not construct a railroad. The right tool for the right job.
The article is about products that affected the consumer market. Consumers don't give a shit about "Software Libre". They just want their gizmo to work.

What am I missing?
An attention span.
Yeah, no. One is a company deciding of their own free will where to locate their business. The other is the government attempting to enact legally-sanctioned discrimination.
Yeah. Plus someday you'll be stuck trying to debug something remotely and all you'll have available is vi. Where's your IDE God now?
Copying others isn't a long -term business plan
Linux has been doing it for decades now.
they need to kill Metro
Why? Metro actually works fine on a small touch screen. Killing it would be retarded.
So you can't actually argue against what he said then?
No, there won't be an exodus. This is a non-issue and no one cares.
No, he's wrong. Look up why the 17th Amendment exists in the first place. These things don't just happen by accident.
You were doing so well right up until that 17th amendment thing.
Not much to worry about there. She'll never run again.
There is no law of evolution.
Sure there is: Species change over time. New ones develop from existing ones and some disappear.
UX research has given us Gnome 3, Unity, Metro. All universally despised.
Hey now. Metro is great... on a small touchscreen. It sucks on a desktop monitor.
I thought the Peace Prizes to Gore and Obama to be the most asinine thing that the committee has ever done.
Reminder that Henry Kissinger won the Peace Prize.
It is WAY faster than most forms of sending payment.
Really? As opposed to, say, swiping a card or handing over a $20?
Crypto currency is clearly better.
Clearly? Care to back that up?
He deserves his right to speak freely without fear of government retribution.
Then he shouldn't have accepted his security clearance.
How about: put in jail for the crimes he committed. Full stop.
I know. It's because I used git.
And git causes brain damage.
Or possibly is the [i]result[/i] of brain damage.
I'll bet this thing just smokes
Yeah, I'm not sure about the cooling either.
Yeah, those lazy unmotivated fucks who just want to get some work done and not spend a bunch of time reading man pages.
It was an example of what we could aspire towards.
Wasting a lot of braincells memorizing obscure keystrokes?

Glad I'm not the only one.
Apple doesn't understand Software Libre at all.
The article is about products that affected the consumer market. Consumers don't give a shit about "Software Libre". They just want their gizmo to work.
Such as unused variables or parameters; is that a bug or a stylistic choice to not litter the code with extra #ifdef?
It's not a bug, but it's sloppy and lazy.
