Gee, it's almost like the completely corrupt "War on Drugs" or "War on Terror." Crazy stuff! It's like they don't even care about making any change to the world at all other than making it easier to make more money in the future doing the same stuff!
I'm sorry; were you under the impression that the very definition of crime was in any way related to advancing the goals of humans as a thinking, feeling populace?

Clang is fine. I often find it producing much faster binaries than GCC. Perhaps, instead, it is your own code that sucks, not any compiler?
This is the best post I've read on this entire thread. Bravo. I started with K&R "The C Programming Language" half a lifetime ago, in middle school, on the bus to and from the place where I failed to learn much of anything except about how schools fail to truly provide the right learning experience for every individual.
Wow, you eliminate bus drivers? Fuck you. Someone's current profession has no bearing on their capabilities nor the breadth of their current experience. Jokers like you being part of the hiring process are the problem.
I would recommend only seeking a formal education if an informal education really doesn't work for you. Sure, you will start off making a lower salary without a degree -- but you also have to account for the fact that you're not trying to pay back astronomical educational costs. The biggest problem with formalized education is that it attempts to serve the least common denominator and leads to teaching lessons in a way that does not encourage personal growth in whatever academic directions most intrigue the student. The passion for learning HAS to be followed for your mind to grow without being stifled! Does an institution truly provide that means? Or can we look deeper and see that we are often simply buying into a capitalist system meant to keep the most individuals in "education" employed?
Yeah, him saying "call out to external C code with varying degrees of difficulty" is purely disingenuous. There is NO difficulty; it may be slightly tedious, but really, no, it's not a big deal. It's quite easy to get a Java/Ruby/v8 (node.js) application bound to an existing C/C++ code-base.
Thank god this dangerous criminal is off the streets! Who knows what shenanighans he might have been up to -- jazz dancing, making moves on white women, going on violent murder sprees!
I don't understand why we place so much value in a system which is obviously meant to make money more than it is to educate. It is an abomination that job availability discriminates upon the boundaries of how much in debt the candidate is willing to be rather than upon merits of their knowledge. Academy is a life-long pursuit, and some people simply do not learn in rigid environments. Even for the ones that do learn well in a public school or a university, most of their eventual useful knowledge is gonna come from where? That's right: life experience.
That's not true. There are poor developers in contracting, but most of the time the failure is within the communication between the people who will be the end-users and the people who will be implementing products. Developers can't anticipate every use of a software.
You can fix camera shake with a TRADITIONAL camera, accelerometer and post-processing. Or even without the sensor benefit if you buy the latest PhotoShop to do it with.
No, it is not a valid side-effect because there is no control subject to test the sanity of the individual, post-LSD-experience, had they not taken LSD. It is mere coincidence and a domain named "sciencewhatever" does not change that. People have psychotic breaks because they have minds and they have "disorders," not because of "drugs."
You can achieve it with meditation, as well as with many other substances -- salvia, cannabis, ketamine, DMT, what have you. LSD happens to work very well, though, certainly. Every time I do it, I feel myself slowly becoming more sane.

Nah, you can learn from yourself.
I played some Monkey Island there... it's worth making it out to see the exhibit. I plan to go back on Sunday and stay for the dance party!
I don't think people program in "old java" anymore. That's like saying people still use K&R C -- no, largely, we upconvert it to modern conventions.

and that somehow makes it a bad idea?

Not altogether unlikely.
Why? He's right. He meant "de facto" and not "by definition," but he's right.

Fuck the system.

Why would you assume that when you know the dealer* could have stolen it as well?
I think you probably meant broker or something.
Any good piece of work has commercial value as well as non-commercial value.
Why do you have delusions about the BSD world? Yes, plenty use software without contributing much back, but plenty more contribute much back.
Wow, I was totally agreeing up until you proposed still adjusting the clocks instead of simply switching to UTC.

A lot of "research drugs" are TRULY dangerous. LSD is extremely non-toxic.
No, it is not a valid side-effect because there is no control subject to test the sanity of the individual, post-LSD-experience, had they not taken LSD.

Oh, you'll also be paying in points. Those confer, too.
