Go on! Keep thinking in terms of dualities and always blame wrong things on the other side. Not having to deal with reality will make you feel better about yourself (and self esteem is important).
Yeah, but the problem is that every major news media out there has reported that it came from China and the awful ones (most) a) stated as a fact b) won't update the news because it doesn't have as much appeal.
The narrow niche would be most graphically intensive software. Which wouldn't be that narrow.
With libraries like QT, it's also quite handy for Desktop Apps and you can easily prototype in python (via bindings PyQt or PySide).
I still go back to the problem of programmers going at things the wrong way. The problem is that there are so many ways in c++ that you discover after years that you still had better means of achieving things.
In that sense, languages that force style and other decisions upon you (like Python or Go) will continue on the road to success and major adoption.
A) People praised them for "defending our rights"/"doing the right thing"
B) Many people "are disappointed but understand" or choose to blame an external factor so it was all image benefit and no loss.
I keep repeating. Do NOT listen to what a politician has to say. He will ALWAYS say whatever favors him politically. Instead, closely monitor his actions and you'll see the real deal.
I can't really respond to hyperbole. Not when You get modded insightful and I get modded troll.
Not when you accuse me of wanting to be fashion by criticizing USA and later telling me that if USA did not bomb everyone the entire world would look like North Korea. There's so many fallacious and emotional statements I really can't do anything about it.
I just wish you realize that it's not good vs evil and that warmongering rhetoric comes in huge troves from USA and a bit from smaller countries but actions mostly come from USA in the way of military aggression and sanctions that are borderline criminal acts causing famine in many parts of the world.
It's hard to try and look at it from a neutral perspective, I get it. But if you just didn't buy every "we are the victims and we need to fight back and police the world" maybe we would be much better and you would be able to face the increasing encroachment on civil liberties and other social aspects at home that are largely ignored.
I'm not saying it's easy (And each country has it's own problems with demagogic governments) but I'd love to see more Americans (I know a lot already) with a less violent and war apologist mindset.
I don't care if you're scared. I didn't mean it as a threat. I meant is a "Stop being so fucking beligerant every fucking time." but it seems that criticizing the egregious military mindset that many Americans (but not all) unfortunately have means one is a troll.
If we need to analyze aggressive and warmonger rhetoric, just look all around US government and mass media calling for the bombing (sometimes nuclear) of many countries they do not align with.
I hope you guys realize your government needs to stop attacking countries (and massively bombing people) all around the world and we will all (including you) be safer.
If I follow your argument, USA should've committed genocide. They should've eliminated everyone living in the confederate states because they had joined and advocated for a separation.
Your fallacy is repugnant. The soldiers in the civil war were killed in isolated battles where everyone was attacking each other. When battles ended, prisoners were taken. Those prisoners were not executed. Their families weren't executed by association either.
If someone did unlawfully execute the enemy, then it was an atrocity and might or might not have been punished but the idea is that they should.
War is War. No convoluted legal reasoning is needed to kill the enemy in war. If you think otherwise, your mind is clouded with nonsense and you are lost in non-reality.
Yeah. Sure. How are we are at war, exactly? Who is the enemy? Who gets to define them and what proof do they offer?
I hope you never experience the worst outcome of your authoritarian mindset but rest confident that, if you don't move much, you might pretend there are no shackles.
Yes but it also serves as a further step of the overmilitarization of all security forces in the homeland.
The fun fact is that, even if you decide to ignore all the atrocities the government is causing in foreign countries (crimes against humanity is not an exxageration, imho) all that violence, control and deprivation ends up being applied internally.
As it happens with the infamous "war on drugs", the same will happen with the elusive "war on terror".
Swartz did something wrong, for sure, he used a script to download documents. He was being rude, making the system slower for everybody else.
The scariest thing is that I'm sure many of us have unawarely done similar things with crawlers, bots or other scripts that could easily be construed as "hacking" or similar by these prosecutorial vultures.
Between patents, copyright, laws about what you can do online with information, etc. What's the change a programmer is not guilty of something somewhere if a government decides to come in full force against you? And considering the law is about having enough money to endure trial.

any self respecting email fetch script will be able to translate ats and dots without issue. You're not exposing him any more than he did.
Too bad there's now a cheat code. You only need to say "National Security" and courts can't review the legality of something.

You're right but they still got what they wanted.
A) People praised them for "defending our rights"/"doing the right thing"
B) Many people "are disappointed but understand" or choose to blame an external factor so it was all image benefit and no loss.

What makes you think companies have the right to have a say of what I do with my hardware at home?
So recording a TV show on VCR was piracy too?

First written in Lisp, then ported to python for maintainability, if I recall correctly.
For tech writers out there, everything was invented either by Apple or Google.
I very much doubt that. Just research a bit into Firefox development and you'll see this is extremely unlikely. Almost unthinkable.

sigh. You and your movie plots. The same bullshit immediacy and end of the world excuses can be used to justify the worst genocides.
In a world of imperfect information and morally ambiguous decisions there are alternatives to your false dichotomy.
I'd prefer Google to focus on third world countries before any of those... I might be biased though, considering I'm living in one. :P

Slashdot: The place where semantics and syntax trump discussing the actual content. :P
heh, never read Groklaw or you'll get a migraine.
I'm genuinely curious. Where do you live? Are you sure it's not a case of not noticing the chains due to not actually moving?

Aren't we pretty much helpless?
I believe this is called user feedback.
It's a feature, not a bug.
I'm sure the parent poster will hate Go as well but I feel this language design decisions ultimately do much more good than harm.
