BUSINESS is a social activity. PEOPLE control business. Not the other way around. Same as in a DEMOCRACY the PEOPLE cast the votes, and the "value" of your money is a distraction from REAL values.
Wrong-o. Something with a steep learning curve is somthing that has a lot to be learned in a short period of time in order to put it into productive use.
It's not about how easy it is to learn the stuff, it's about how much stuff there is and how much of it you need up-front.
Moore's law isn't about the tip of high-tech research. It's about the leading edge of profitable manufacturing of computational devices.
I.e., until someone like Applied Materials or KLA Tencor is done installing a fab line for this process node, you can't count it as a data point in the history of the law.

"And I laugh at how you are supposed to see the advantages of 4-color technology in ads on your 3-color sets at home as you watch their commercials."
But the script of the commercial is written almost entirely with deference to that fact.
The estimable Mr. Takei tells you, while you're no doubt ogling his adam's apple instead of listening, that he can't actually show you the difference itself, but, "I can show you this," wherupon he looks at the screen and gives his review in a single, somewhat gaudily overacted word.
I'm not sure how anyone misses that, since his behavior is utterly bizarre without the concept of telling-not-showing being in play.
Again, FERPA = null if I'm paying the bills. It's not his education, it's my bought-and-paid-for- education being put into his head. And the school will inform me as to its quality.
What I don't get is, why not have a yard full of these domes ready to be deployed in case of an accident? Or better, put one next to the well as you're drilling it. Then, if you're successful, drag it to the next hole you're going to drill.
Then you can stop a catastrophe like this in hours instead of weeks.
What I do get is, things like this are written into massive regulatory bills, which the oil companies pay lobbyists to kill.
We need to stop allowing corporations to manipulate democracy.
BP owns the oil lease, and are responsible for everything that happens there, including safety and disaster mitigation.
When BP contracted to someone to put the rig in place and drill, they set the safety standards for their contractor to follow, and were responsible for ensuring performance to contract.
When your employee doesn't follow your rules, it's as much your fault as theirs.

Yes. Once you have vim, you can install cscope, and there you are.
But if you really must waste time with a mouse to feel superior, you can just run vim as gvim.

I think the opposite because the better programmer will be rendered an average programmer by the difficulties of the language.
>Oh cool, is C ellipsis the new C sharp?
No, C... is secure and C# is not.
How are you going to steal my bytes when I don't pub my SSID?
He does not represent me, or anyone I know.
Welcome to America.
Because for $500 I can get all that and a phone with Android OS installed...
Probably a trivial way to access it over the internet, too...
All I want for xmas is a 3-G meat cleaver.

Hey look everyone! He's discovered how to use the Fallacy of the Excluded Middle to perpetuate his delusions.
They're cool, but they're dead weight once you hit low-density air. Better to deboost them and go on your way in Stage 2.
Solid fuel boosters don't consume their shell unless they're defective.
And unless you jettison them, making yourself a multi-stage vehicle, you're going to have to lug them around with you in space.
Do I need to teach you how to tie your shoes, too?
>Now I'm off to perch precariously on dark rooftops and leer menacingly at random strangers while having a bleak and sorrowful inner monolouge.
rooftop?
but that's why I come here...

In 40 years there will be no oil.
Practice for it now, or teach your kids to teach their grandkids how to deal with it.
Either way, your shortsightedness is not going to help.

And weren't those the U.S. Government's booms?
BP didn't do a thing until it was excoriated in the press. It certainly didn't overreact enough to contain an appreciable portion of the risk.
