Not exactly. Yes you do have nutcase audiophiles that must use virgin gold connectors with natural rubber insulation made by Buddhist nuns under a full moon. But there is a big difference between a good set of speakers and the $5 speakers you get with your new PC. When I plug my headphones in on my workstation I get a hiss I can hear when no sound is playing and the sound is just not that good. It does not need to by since I am usually just listening to NPR shows.
Mobile, Routers, NAS, and now servers. ARM is getting very big very quickly. In computers Attacks come from the bottom up. PC where a joke and could not hold a candle to a real computer like a PDP-11! Forget about mainframes like the 370! It was not HURD at the time but GNU Unix that was going to be the next big thing. It wasn't but hey no one is perfect.
X86 has gone away. Everyone is using X86-64 and Arm. I would be more Unix like systems are ARM than X86 or X86-64.. So is AMD64 X86-64 orX86/64? I can never remember.
Except he was right in 1992. He just underestimated the growth in speed and power of a PC. On a 386 with 4 megs of memory and a single slow hard drive he was right.
Simple native development can be a lot easier than cross development. If you have the money for some really good embedded tools, cross development is not bad at all. But if not native development is a lot simpler. I would still do most of my work on an X86 Linux box and then move the project over to the embedded for testing but that is just me.
Actually Streets and Trips has a lot of features that Google maps and I bet Bing maps lack for trip planning. For example you can tell it when you are going to leave, your MPG, fuel tank size, and how many hours you want to drive a day. Streets and Trips will suggest refueling points and stopping points. I wish the online maps "Google" would put those features in and allow you to push the trip to your mobile device.
Modern airliners use FBW the pilot does not move the control surfaces he moves a joystick and a computer decides what to do. Even the example you gave was pilots ignoring the electronics systems and not the electronics systems failing.
"In 1929, he became the first pilot to take off, fly and land an airplane using instruments alone, without a view outside the cockpit. Having returned to Mitchel Field that September, he assisted in the development of fog flying equipment. He helped develop, and was then the first to test, the now universally used artificial horizon and directional gyroscope. He attracted wide newspaper attention with this feat of "blind" flying and later received the Harmon Trophy for conducting the experiments. These accomplishments made all-weather airline operations practical."
And yes it was the Jimmy Doolittle. If you do not know about him you should read up on him.
Because. 1. Yes it is a language. 2. A lot more people know PHP well than know Perl well. Notice that I said that PHP has many of the same proble,s as Perl but also has a larger base of programers
Russia worried about privacy? Yeah.... Just makes it easier for them to get their own citizens data, easier to tax and demand bribes from companies doing business in Russia, and hopefully makes it easier to spy on other nations because some of their personal data could end up in Russia. Anyone that thinks that Russia is open or pro privacy is living in a fantasy world.
Coal is baseload solar is not a replacement for baseload. The only good renewable replacement for baseload is hydro "the original baseload source of power". Wind is a marginal replacement for baseload but you really need large natural gas peaking plants to back up wind.
" He ended up with a lot of bad health effects, but kept alive until he was 75, eleven years later." He died of heart problems. If you read the health effects they are claiming many of them seem just normal for a older person at that time. The rest might could also have been caused by chemical issues more than radiation. Heavy metals are for a large part things you want to avoid putting into your body. The cateracts could be an issue but I know a lot of 70 year olds that have them that have never been near any source of ionizing radiation except normal background "pretty low here in Florida btw", and the Sun which does put out a good bit of UV.
It is not cool and hip. The real answer is that Perl can be hard to maintain unless you enforce strict programing standards and it is not easy to find really skilled Perl programers. A less than top notch Perl programer means problems down the road for sure. PHP, Python, and Ruby are all popular choices. PHP probably has the biggest talent base but has many of the same problems as Perl. Python and Ruby are easier to maintain but harder to find coders for.

Ummm..... Just what do you think nations do? There is not a single nation that does not spy on some other nation. Sweden, Germany, France, and the UK all have special SIGINT aircraft. The US, China, Russia, Israel, the EU, Pakistan, and India all have spysats. What are you 12 or have you never read any history?
Actually this maybe changing for some programing shops. In the Agile training I took one of the rules was do not work more the 40 hours a week. Sure for a crunch now and then you may have to go over but if you do more than two weeks at over 40 something is wrong.
Of course it is all possible but it is not at the level of just works for most people. "You think that would be good, but in reality it would be annoying. It's nice to have that stuff have its own controls, particularly a volume knob.
Volume buttons are the devil." So wouldn't it be cool if Android could read the volume knob and even use it and the other buttons that the car uses?
"In both the GPS and OBD-II cases, you can bet that the manufacturer would charge you more than you'd pay to get the functionality from a third party." To start with probably. Eventually it will just be standard equipment just like traction control, and ABS is now.
I would like to see more than mirror link. I would love to have an option for the phone to use a GPS built into the car and the antenna. In theory it should be better than the tiny one they have to fit in your phone. Also it would be good if could have access to the AM, FM, and Satellite radio systems and can control them. I would also like to see it have access to the things like MPG data.
" costs money to license, and you have to agree to forcing Google's shit by default (like the Play store)." 1. No it does not http://9to5google.com/2014/01/... And the things that Google "forces" android handset makers is frankly what customers want. Google started making handset makers to do make GMS and all or nothing service when a handset maker put on all sorts of Google apps but made the search BING and locked it down! Some companies choose not to use GMS but still use Android like Amazon. AOSP plus GMS == the Android must consumers want.
Compared to IOS, BlackberryOS, and WP Android is as free as can be. If you want source to everything but the GMS apps just run Cyanogen. You can even add in the GMS apps if you want them or just run Outlook, YahooMail, or a FOSS mailclient for mail, and the mapping software of your choice.

Yep I want to stop for the night at 7 pm where are the hotels you can stay at and here are some places to eat...
One word.
Debugger.
Compilers are actually easy to come by today. Debugging is where you run into issues.
