  1. How about we get with the 80's on Apple's New iOS File Manager Coming This Fall As Part of iOS 11 (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    I mean hierarchical filesystems have been around a very very long time.

  2. Re:Software needs to be written for reuse on White House Releases Federal Source Code Policy To Help Government Agencies Go Open Source (whitehouse.gov) · · Score: 1

    Section 3, Three-Step Software Solutions Analysis after listing its three steps says: "Agencies must also consider several factors throughout each stage of the three-step analysis:", and then bullet B of this says: "Modular Architecture: Agencies should consider modular approaches to solution architecture. As discussed in the Digital Government Strategy, modularity can reduce overall risk and cost while increasing interoperability and technical flexibility." So it looks like they are at least attempting to go for re-usable.

  3. It did not have the laws programed into it on Autonomous Robot Intentionally Hurts People To Make Them Bleed (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    ...and therefore it couldn't break said law. The interesting thing about Asimov's Robot novels is the robots had "wired" into their positronic brains the laws of robotics and yet through various "interpretations" they would break those laws. Building a robot that does not have these laws embedded in its "mind" and and was programmed to perform an action that breaks one or more of them is hardly interesting.

  4. Did they not read The Book of Invasions? on The Irish Not of Celtic Origin? · · Score: 1

    This is old news for anyone that knows anything about the mythology/pseudo history of the Irish. Every Irishman that knows their own lore knows that the island was previously inhabited before the Celts came (by many peoples). This is sensationalist buggered garbage. BTW, there is probably some Etruscan DNA to be found among Italians. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
