Being a prodigy at math and it's applications shouldn't excuse him from learning the things that everyone spends time learning from the social sciences and creative disciplines. Keep him in school and let him develop social skills while studying things that still require basic memorization.
Programming is a craft. You have to love doing it to be good at it.
Agreed. When I interview someone for a programming position at any level, I drill them on this more than I do on their technical talent and training. I can train anyone with talent, and I can quickly identify those who don't have talent. But if there's no passion for programming, then there's no reason for me to waste my time with the training, regardless of the talent level.
Being smart and having knowledge will not make someone successful, not without the right attitude.
If someone remembers it, then yeah, someone is probably still making it. But plenty of tools have been invented over the centuries that no one remembers, and therefore, no one is currently making.
My car is personal property according to the state, because I pay personal property taxes on it. So aren't they vandalizing my personal property by attaching their crap to it?
Another question: if I find such a device on my vehicle, am I within my rights to destroy it?
1,660,000 results versus a search for TSQL giving 402,000 results. When comparing those results, remember that the addon search results come from people actually using Lua, whereas the TSQL results are dominated by informational pages.
Sorry to troll, but what exactly is a "strict superset"? A superset is a set that contains another set, in this case Objective-C contains C; all of it. If it didn't contain all of C, then it wouldn't be a superset at all. So what makes a superset strict?
...and I really mean that. How many of those persons had never played that great game before? I don't consider educating people about modern culture "lost" productivity.
"Goods" include all chattels personal other than things in action and money. The term includes emblements and things attached to or forming part of the land which are agreed to be severed before sale or under the contract of sale.
It's extremely helpful when programming to ask a colleague to borrow their eyes from time to time, or to help work out a tech design on a nearby whiteboard. Around a circular table keeps the side-by-side, where they can easily wheel over to a neighbor's station to help out.
Youngsters. We used to play text-based MUDs when it cost by the HOUR to even be online. Personally, I never had a bill over $500 in a month ($2.95/hour on AOL), but I know people who regularly spent a couple thousand dollars a month ($21.00+/hour for prime time hour on the GEnie network), back in the day.
Presumably you need to be online each time you play in order to validate, otherwise it's just as hackable as any other local content. So that would mean that you could not play those games while offline, as Steam currently allows. That makes this mechanism more restrictive for the user from what I can tell.
I believe the intent of the statement is that all of your patterns break. For example, as TFA points outs, in functional programming expect to use "Recursion as the primary tool for iteration."
Any of your programming patterns that use loops would instead use recursive function calls.
I don't have a problem with raising animals so that we can feed on them, but now we don't even need them have sex before going to slaughter? That's just cruel and inhumane.

What is *on* TV is content. This is a discussion of the content delivery device *itself*. Parent should have been modded funny, not insightful.

The Earth wants plastic for itself, and created us to make it! (Thank you, George Carlin.)

Well, to give you an example of Lua's popularity, search Google for WoW Addons.

I went there to see Fishbone. Combining a show with playing in the exhibits and having a few drinks makes for a really good time.

Actually, it wasn't the article that was misleading, it was the summary provided to Slashdot.

"...the fish are to be lifelike in appearance and swimming behavior so they..." ...can get eaten by sharks? That's going to be a rude awakening.

How many of those surveyed had even engaged in sex during the previous six months?

And what does your ability to get that quip in as the first post say about your lifestyle?
