Not always. I have faith that certain journalists, none of whom work for Fox, will always put their journalistic integrity first. Not blind faith, mind you, but faith. It takes some effort to build that and tends to evaporate instantly if shaken. At least for a person with a functioning brain.
Facts don't bother you much when you think you've got a great argument going, do they? But let's try some facts anyway. See where it says "Germany 6.7%" and "Italy 7.5%"? That is now, in fact that is already in the past. Solar capacity is being added exponentially. Try to understand the implications for a petrorepublic like Russia, just try.
Face it, the sun is setting on the fossil fuel era, and on the petroleum economies. The future belongs to renewables and batteries.

Are you seriously implying that having faith in journalists is a good thing? Skepticism is good. Faith is not.
So true. Except for Rachel Maddow, I have faith in Rachel Maddow, I sincerely hope she never shakes it. And Dan Rather, likewise. Oh, and Jake Tapper. And... oh, um, a number of these towering figures who so obviously believe in and uphold the fundamental tenets of professional journalism.

Ivan, when you mod down a post it does not disappear from the internet, rather it stays around to document your activity.
They intend to sell coal, oil, and natural gas cheaper than wind and solar energy.
Good luck with that. Hint: sun rays are free. The wind is free. In case you didn't get the memo, solar and wind power are already cheaper than fossil fuel.

Agreed. And if Tizen ever gets any traction Google might have a real competitor to Android.
If they would rewrite Enlightenment in C++ or reawaken the QT port then I would view it as a viable alternative to Android. Otherwise it looks unlikely to get a whole lot of traction outside Samsung. But in that context I do not deny that it is effective, and certainly a better choice than Android for a watch.
I would not hold Lua up as a shining example of anything. It's an example of something, but not something shining. Sure, a compiler can partially unravel a mess made by 1-based indexing, but that does not help unravel the mess it makes in your brain. You as an example:)
Your Windows mail server I presume. MSCE on a resume is a red flag, Linux sysadmin are nearly always better at admining Windows boxes than MSCEs. If you can't configure a mail server via config files or debug it by reading logs then as a sysadmin then you are simply incompetent. They do get hired of course, but with variously hilarious or sad results. Let's not even speak of RFCs, it is already apparent they play no part in your world view.
Right, the only thing that hit the wall so far is frequency scaling, as evidenced by your graph. Transistor count just keeps increasing.
Conventional lithography (which includes EUV) clearly ends somewhere, but don't forget to multiply the nominal process name by approximately 6 to get the actual half pitch, i.e., 12 to get the separation between traces. Beyond that there are a number of technologies to continue scaling transistor count, most obviously 3D lithography. Spintronics is plausible, i.e., subatomic logic. Self assembly is likely to become a thing. There really isn't an end in sight at the moment.
The issue there is battery life, it takes a whole lot of CPU cycles to decode human speech. Maybe it could work if you also have a phone in your pocket to do the heavy lifting.
Sad to say, Samsung is kicking Google's tail in the smart watch category with crap Tizen built on crap Enlightenment toolchain, which is nonetheless better than Android for a watch. One word: native.
So they got $60 million. What was the proposal, just "give us $60 million and we'll think about how to spend it?". Seems reasonable.
The last one, Stampede2, was Xeons + NVidia. Will this one be Ryzen + Radeon? I expect there are a number of Intel and NVidia salesmen now stalking their prey on campus.
Native C interface is a huge feature, this gives immediate access to a huge number of libraries. It mystifies me why so many language projects drop the ball on this one (most definitely including Java, if you don't agree then you just don't know JNI)

"Faith" is the wrong word...

The wind and sun as sources of energy are as "free" as coal...
Yah, no. Coal doesn't fall on you from the sky.
Earth to you: the future powered by wind and sun is already here. What rock do you live under?

I voted for Trump after voting for Obama twice. And given an identical scenario I'd do it again.
I presume that by identical scenario, you mean still being stupid. I don't much like Hilary but that is not a reason to commit national suicide.

Apparently you never "got" any language after Fortran
Thanks. IMHO they should tear up the plans based on current realities and take another look at how to buy the most throughput for the fewest dollars.
the main reason why "Tizen watches use less battery" is that you can't drain your battery if you have no useful apps.
Wrong, it's because there is no JIT.

Clean power, bad news for Russia. End of the petroleum age. End of petroleum economy. The Russian mafia has a plan of course.
I worked as a sysadmin for 12 years and it's just not interesting.
And you can't set up an email server, plus you don't understand the importance? See, that's why I thoroughly vet applicants.
you are the one imagining the silly invented convention of zero based arrays is somehow logical or useful just because that's what you learned first.
Wrong, it is not what I learned first. You out yourself as a neophyte.

Just asking.
We just want to know.
