  1. Re: The planet will survive on Era of 'Biological Annihilation' Is Underway, Scientists Warn (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Are you talking about the blue pill future? That's an awesome future!

  2. I feel like people like you should be required to get a facial tattoo that says "I believe anything on the internet" just so the rest of us can easily identify you.

  3. Re:bullshit on World's Cheapest Energy Source Will Be Renewables Within Three Years (qz.com) · · Score: 3, Funny

    I live outside of the US and I can get a 100W panel for less than $100 so I guess the US is subsidizing solar in other countries too.

  4. Well it was on a website and it mentioned Washington Times. I don't think GP's critical thinking went much further than that.

  5. Somehow I think... on Google's New Startup Heats Your Home With Energy From Your Lawn (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    Heating our homes won't be a big problem for much longer.

  6. Re:Make their USE/DISPLAY illegal... on 'Call For a Ban On Child Sex Robots' (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Not so. Maybe you live in a state with a geriatric vampire clause, but it would be the exception, not the rule.

  7. Re:Make their USE/DISPLAY illegal... on 'Call For a Ban On Child Sex Robots' (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Hmm, the age of consent in WA is 16, so she was fair game.

  8. Re:Depicts an depressing situation on While Chrome Dominates, Microsoft Edge Struggles To Attract New Users (neowin.net) · · Score: 0

    Good for who? I can't imagine who Linux desktop market share is good for. Maybe Steam box game developers.

  9. Re:Fad languages don't live long on Is Ruby's Decline In Popularity Permanent? (computerworld.com.au) · · Score: 1

    I will admit to using Perl for the occasional one-liner, but mostly Perl is for old cowboys who work alone and that's why the libraries are never maintained. For anything complicated you need Python or Ruby.

  10. Re:Javascript pushing it down on Is Ruby's Decline In Popularity Permanent? (computerworld.com.au) · · Score: 1

    Compared to Node what? RoR is a MVC framework, you'd have to compare it to one of the Node MVC frameworks - of which there are tons.

  11. The new CEO of 500 Startups says... on 24 Women Allege Sexual Harassment By Investors, and Another VC Gets Demoted (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    Whoa! That guy must be busier than a one-legged man in an ass kicking contest.

  12. Sneakers are a weird market on Nike Thought It Didn't Need Amazon -- Then the Ground Shifted (wsj.com) · · Score: 2

    It's really the only thing as an automation freelancer that I continually see job posts for. Something about sneakerbots is profitable to the right people and I've never understood why. They treat that shit like it's wall street high frequency trading.

  13. Re:federalism, can you haz it? on Mayors of 7,400 Cities Vow To Meet Obama's Climate Commitments (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Sure, and the same goes for the right and the opposite principle.

  14. Corporations are people too. They need some walking around money.

  15. Re:But will the doors go "shhh!" when they travers on New Maglev Elevator Can Travel Horizontally, Vertically, and Diagonally (wired.co.uk) · · Score: 5, Informative

    Wrong reference. This is clearly a Willy Wonka elevator.

  16. Only for certain sectors. His policies aren't popular with tech corporations.

  17. Actually if this thing ran on Android (along with some compilers and interpreters) - that would be pretty interesting. Right now there's not really anybody developing *on* Android, just *for* Android.

  18. Re:What a fucking waste of time! on Community Ports 'Visual Studio Code' To Chromebooks, Raspberry Pi (infoworld.com) · · Score: 1

    We're discussing VSCode. It's one of those new fancy Sublime/Atom style editors.

  19. Re:Conclusions by rationale on Google Searches Show That America Is Full of Racist and Selfish People (vox.com) · · Score: 1

    Maybe there was a big "Huckleberry Finn" book report due that week.

  20. I can't help thinking this is some kind of strategy. Hire people who are so bad at their jobs, that when you eventually fire them you look like a hero.

  21. Re:When religion makes laws on Man Sentenced to Death For Blasphemous Facebook Comments In Pakistan (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This has less to do with Facebook and more with what happens when you let imaginary friends rule your life.

    Huh? Facebook is what happens when you let imaginary friends rule your life.

  22. Re:No on Ask Slashdot: Will Python Become The Dominant Programming Language? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Python has completely stepped on it's own dick by making v3 scripts incompatible with v2. In all likelihood it will never get over that clusterfuck. For data science, R is the future, and for everything else, it's really a toss-up.

  23. Re: Woopie on The US Can't Leave The Paris Climate Deal Until 2020 (nytimes.com) · · Score: 0

    Not stupidity, selfishness. Trump has nothing to lose from climate change and for his BFF in Russia it's actually a huge win.

  24. I can guarantee there was no DBA. A copy+paste error that can't be rolled back *or* restored from backup means that nobody is on the ball over there.

  25. As in, over time, batteries will become so awesome that we won't need to be connected to the grid anymore. He doesn't say it's happening today.
