Do we really need to smell you from a block away?
FFS -- what a crock of shit. I personally don't recommend Ruby to clients any more in favor of NodeJS, but there's still plenty of startups going with Ruby. A hell of a lot more than Perl.
But with that said, if it were up to me I'd happily see Perl and PHP die. While Perl is definitely a dying language, PHP seems to be holding on -- with nasty frameworks like Yii (which feature views where anything goes) gaining popularity.
Siri, as usual was giving me confusing and last second directions saying "Turn Left", in a very confusing series of intersections in Oakland where it looked like she was wrong (and was of course). However, while looking around trying to read street signs, the light turned red just as I got to the intersection, and I was still at about 40mph, after having just got off the Freeway. So, I figured it would be safer to run the light than slam on the brakes and risk stopping in the middle of the intersection.
Immediately I saw flashing red lights, I pulled over and apologized to the CHP Officer while handing him my papers, explaining the situation with Siri and the light etc and you know what? He came back, handed me back my papers and said he decided to give me a break on the ticket and let me go.
Thanks Ponch! Seems the California Highway Patrol is all to familiar with how much a distraction Siri can be.
And what the fuck is up with her 10 mile warning! Two mile I can understand, but 10? Fucking annoying.
And deprive noble farmers of the water they need to grow the crop used to make workman's jumpsuits?
You'd have an easier time convincing him to "turn back" on the Ukraine.
This is a freaking fantastic piece of tech -- but it really needs to be given a much larger budget and a better design team to make this something the masses would wear.
But for a prototype, it's just fine.
Hopefully someone with the design sense of Apple will buy them and take this to the next level.
Other applications like a Personal Assistant or Scout would be great add-ons for usage as well.
I remember seeing something a few years back that made the case that Ship to Ship space battles would be fought by AI Drones. Due to the extreme 3D maneuverability of small craft with thrusters , humans wouldn't stand a chance against machines capable of making advanced tactical calculations in milliseconds.
Whether or not projectiles would trump high powered energy weapons would depend on the sorts of shielding and materials in use to create spacecraft with.
However, a rapid fire rail gun does seem like it would be ideal for close quarters combat and require less energy to penetrate shielding and armor.
But perhaps more exotic ammo than slugs would be more useful, imagine a round that on impact would release rapidly replicating nano-bots that eat through the ship's hull until there was no ship or deliver an EMP to disable the systems.
Last time I saw the Yahoo Web Directory was circa 1999 -- and it was an outmoded next to useless service back then compared to Yahoo search (which was top dog at the time)
I had just assumed they'd shuttered it, what with Google kicking their ass so hard that they all but left the Search market to focus on acquiring trendy startups in other areas so they could run them into the same sort of irrelevancy they did with Search.
All major media based.coms should just block access to all users coming in from Canada.
Let's show those backwater twerps what power they really have over the Internet.
Yeah, except that a single company shouldn't have to spend a bajillion dollars in order to be able to sell cars without having to kowtow down to dealer cartels.
That's why the Federal Government needs to get involved -- no one should have to sell their product through a middleman.
I'm sure Chinese Firms would love to have scientists educated at the top US Universities conducting research for them.
America is fast becoming a Design and Services Economy, best to leave the real innovation to China and others.
I have 3 identical Backpacks that contain the following
1 Pump Action Shot Gun
1.45 handgun
10 boxes of ammo for each gun
1 machete
1 Spyder hunting/Utility knife
Magnesium Firestarter
LED Flashlight
Compass
a couple dozen dehydrated meals
Sumo mini cooker
4 propane cans for teh Sumo
2 gallons of Water
A couple pouches of Beef Jerky
Bivy Sack
Tarp
2 20" lengths of nylon rope
1 travel sized 1st Aid kit
I keep one in my Car, one at home in the Hall Closet and one as a GeoStash out in an outlaying sparsely populated area I can get to by foot if needed. The contents of these bags are very versatile and will cover me in the case of Zombie Apocalypse, Governmental Collapse/Tyranny, Alien Invasion and oh yes... Earth Quakes
Sounds like the obvious answer is "Then don't watch it."
People such as yourself who tell people to just give something up if they don't like a particular issue with it are fucking morons.
The world is not made of absolutes, nothing is perfect and companies are out to make a profit off the back of the consumer.
And if you had any actual capacity for thought in that little numbnut that rattles around in that cranial cavity of yours, you'd have realized that that bit about "consumers will govern companies in the market place" is antiquated 19th century BULLSHIT that no longer has any merit.
Companies no longer need to care about the consumer, when they have so many different ways of obtaining revenue without having to rely upon the pennies you have to offer. And it's a well known fact that the most PROFITABLE companies are the most HATED by consumers. Companies like Comcast are laughing all the way to the bank. Seems pissing all over consumers pays quite well.
You think ticket sales amounts to fuck-all compared to all the Licensing and Merchandising fees the NFL takes in every year?
Fact is there is not a single Public Company that you can control with your little fist full of pocket change. And the only thing consumers hurt by giving up services for things they actually enjoy over idealistic bullshit is themselves -- not the corporate target of their ire.
If you believe that elections actually matter at all, I am sorry to inform you that you are seriously deluded. Corporations write the laws, Corporations have their lobbyists give the law to their pet Congressman, Congressman gets kickbacks and hot insider trading tips.
You, the "pleeb taxpayer" get fucked in the ass.
It doesn't matter who you vote for, blue or red, it's all just a shell game for the people with the real power.
Back in the day you'd count yourself lucky be be dumped onto a server to play a serious of deadly games on an electric matrix in the hopes of finally having a face off with the Overseer of Games, who looks just like your dick-head suspender wearing boss who always asking you to "ummmm yeah, come in on Saturday mmmm'kay?" like a question, as if you could actually say no, in heated one on one combat, only to ultimately prevail when you send a blazing disk straight through his face and watch in rapt glee as he disintegrates before your eyes.

Shit products at top of the line prices being reason one. But this is a close #2
In the US, Employers are JOB CREATORS and therefor can do no wrong. He has no case.

These photos were leaked on the Internet, and Google is like King of the Internet and can control and censor every last thing that happens on it.
Government is not authorised to destroy individual freedoms this way
What the fuck are you talking about? The Government can and will destroy you for anything they want. It's your rights and freedoms that don't exist.
And deprive noble farmers of the water they need to grow the crop used to make workman's jumpsuits? You'd have an easier time convincing him to "turn back" on the Ukraine.
Well from GMs perspective, until Tesla gets a Government Bailout they will remain a fringe brand.

I don't know, but it sounds expensive and most likely french.
I was just about to try out Wave on my new iPhone after I finished deleting system32 to make my PC go faster

In favor of "Blatant Attempt at Ripping-Off the Apple Store" Not as catchy, but accurate

These game changing big events are well beyond any FEMA planning.
Planning or not, FEMA will always do a Heck of a Job
