Without those "rich slimebags" throwing their money into educational and public enrichment programs there would be a lot more poor and disadvantaged people around.
And without rich people throwing money into the crowd, there would be more people without few coins (and much less with intact eyes and non-broken hands).
well, the good news is that you can do this today, it's been around for at least ten years. Its called UML. what happens in your fantasy is that you draw your code layouts in boxes with various types of lines to link the objects together, then click a button and the whole thing gets generated into your favourite language. you then fill in a few of the details (ie the implementation inside some of those objects) and you're done.
And this is a completely separate and much more important problem -- students do not understand the material, and have nothing but superficial similarities to guide them in application of those thoughtlessly memorized methods. They have fake knowledge that is applied in cargo-cult fashion, and provides nothing for future learning or improvements.
Defending the rights of those you disagree with is the hallmark of true freedom loving people.
And this is one of the reasons that I never claimed to love "freedom" in the first place. It would be great if everyone else stopped pretending to do so, too. It sounds great written by a 18th century French guy. It does not work when the most powerful companies in the world are in the advertisement business, and rely entirely on throwing money at "spread of ideas".
Oh wow, a whole discussion based on an assumption that "rational" means "selfish".
Rationality, by itself only works within some set of goals, otherwise nothing can be "rational". Goals, on the other hand (whenever they are not based on more general goals) are determined by instincts, emotions, and communications within society. A psychopath, who is also a member of the local Libertarian club, works as a lawyer for MPAA, and runs a spam company, probably has selfish goals, so for him rational behavior will be selfish. For someone else, goals may be completely different, and could be based on his feelings toward other people -- then it would be irrational for him to emulate the aforementioned lawyer-spammer.
For the value of "interesting" in "Hay guyz, why don't we just stuff Newton's prism into an interferometer to increase its precision, and do a lot of irrelevant calculations!"
(to be honest, using an inclined surface of a prism to vary the direction of the beams would be an improvement on what they are doing, however calibration will be very difficult)
It's easy to point fingers at the tiny countries that your government is tirelessly sabotaging and destroying over more than a half a century, and see the problems they are having.
When I lived in USSR, my quality of life was higher than at any other point in my life. Obviously, that does not count the conveniences/inconveniences brought by development of technology over time -- that while USSR existed, happened there just as much as in Capitalist countries, despite what you are told.
Just in case you are wondering, USSR was brought down by anything but economic problems -- in reality, active and planned destruction of a socialist economic system (so fledgling "market economy" can survive without unfair competition from the government!) was an important part of economic policy since at least 1989. It culminated in 1992 "voucher privatization", when population was basically given pseudo-money to "buy" all government-owned companies because government wanted all-market economy so much. That went... exactly like any sane person would expect.
Until someone will write a "storage" application that implements semantics of a filesystem, thus effectively becoming a filesystem. iOS is just lucky that it does not have any local data that user cares about, except tiny per-application storage.

Or maybe it's Cisco, so likely their email security is crap in the first place.
It's a cultural thing, going back to slavery.
I work at a fairly large company, and when hiring, we check names and personal info against a database.
No, you don't.

Can we, please, stop praising rich slimebags for their habit of throwing money into the crowd?
Sounds exactly like something Microsoft would do.
What did you, idiots, think, Microsoft will ever stop being a bunch of evil, abusive assholes?
Yeah, right, that's exactly how it happened.
In the marketing script you got from Microsoft.

THIS IS WHAT UML TOOLS PROPONENTS REALLY BELIEVE.

That's the version US propaganda invented. In reality it was completely different -- and I was there to see it.
USSR had a really shitty space program. Oh, wait...

The physics is interesting.

He means, the value of his work. That's probably better than most Americans.

"Harmony" is a euphemism for "lay down and let the powerful exploit you"
No, that's "Democracy".
Curious. My Eclipse project is the Linux Kernel. Works fine.
I hope, none of your code is included and enabled on any of my systems.

Now it is not.
If no one will complain, Microsoft management will suspect that it's a good idea and cancel the project.

Of all the approaches available to them, which would make Microsoft the most money?
Public executions of everyone involved in Windows development.
And why do you think, this is going to be allowed for non-development purposes?
This is a non-issue, and the only reason such a question can be asked is being a part in a propaganda campaign against open source software.
