    No, you are simply an idiot, a liar, or a Russian troll (the latter being more probable). You will end up paying handsomely for debt service of the trillions stolen by Trump and his cronies, and your children will too, that is, if you are not too stupid to figure out how to reproduce. Is a dog biscuit now enough to convince you that it is a good idea for you and your (also stupid?) descendants to suffer thousands or millions of dollars of future losses?

    That's one thing about Russian social network trolls: it's clear when you get under their skin.

    The deficit that many are predicting from this tax cut also assumes annual GDP growth of 2%, not the 3%+ we're running right now. Get back to 3% - the average we're used to seeing - and the deficit will come down.

    Your assumption is garbage because high debt is certain to bring down GDP growth as an increasing portion of the nation's capital is diverted to debt service. Or in other words, get used to watching China's tailpipes.

    No need to got to China to shut down a copyright-violating perp, the FTC would be more than sufficient and it is not a particularly high bar.

    Note that the person you refer to as a copyright troll is actually Patric McHardy, a major and respected contributor to Netfilter, now virtually ubiquitous in internet-connected web devices. He certainly has standing to sue a copyright violator. The statement issued by kernel developers in no way "curtails" GPL enforcement, it only reassures users that if they have violated the GPL (perhaps unknowingly, but usually not) that they can easily cure the violation by complying promptly, and not fear legal action. The flip side of that assurance is, it also clarifies exactly the conditions under which copyright violators can be judged to have failed to cure the violation, and by that measure leaves the field even more open to GPL enforcers, because the cases are now easier to prove.

    I'm not saying C did or did not come back, or did or did not go away. I am saying, you won't know from Tiobe, it way too random. They count language questions, not language usage, and don't make the slightest attempt to correct for predictable skew like selection bias due to who hangs out there as opposed to, say, stackoverflow.

    My totally on reliable take on it? C dev population stays about the same: very few, very skilled, and very highly paid. Because of the latter, the number of C wannabes spikes from time to time, but don't worry, they will go away after they ask a few questions and still can't code.
