    I doubt it. My dad went thru a windshield before I was born, an every few years he produces a small piece of glass from his body, and it never killed him.

    Yeah, because nobody's ever spammed google, and when you're searching you never get bullshit results that just go to other "search engines"...

    Nintendo makes a saving throw against franchise, and summons plumbers, Link, and Samus.

    Easy, big fella. Deep breaths. I never said anything against people who work in IT but never took any classes in it. Why would I, when I'm one of them? I think what we have here is perhaps a misunderstaning of your post, and then of mine. I was simply trying to make a point, not attack anybody or preach, I was just saying that recursion is a basic technique of programming that people still need to know, and I stand by that.

    The first was to get a SQL query to run faster: a simple matter of creating a view and supporting indexes.

    Ah, views.... I miss real databases.... Stupid cheap bastards and their MySQL....

    I call monstrous shennanigans on this one. Nobody who doesn't understand recursion is a good programmer. Recursion and the limits therein is a fundamental building block of procedural and OO development. And if you don't know anything about ArrayList, you're sure as hell not coming within 100' of our java projects.

    ... or illegally breaking a copyright-protection scheme

    No, we (almost unanimously) think it should never be illegal to break a copyright-protection scheme. It should be illegal for me to download decss,decrypt my DVDs, and put uploads on kazaa. Howver it definitely should not be illegal for me to download decss, decrypt my DVDs, and put divxs on my modded xbox.

    How, exactly, does anyone "win" a nuclear war? Seriously. I am curious to know your thoughts on this.

    If you're still alive and only midly cancerous when the dust settles, and the other guy isn't, you won. Just like any other war.

    250 mph top speed is retarded because the only places you can really reach such a speed are on a banked oval track.

    Not in australia, we have the darwin-alice highway, which is an excellent quality low traffic road, with
    no speed limit and straights going on for hundreds of kilometers.

    True, but I don't care if they fly above my house in a squillion tonnes (no, I have no idea the weight of an airplane) of metal being flown by a computer or a trained pilot.

    Flying cars can work just fine from that standpoint. Just if you want to fly it yourself instead of sitting in it after telling it to take you to work, you've gotta be a pilot of some sort... Simple.
