LinkedIn was useful in its early days, but now it's just another data source/ad revenue tool for Microstuff. I just deleted my account today because I don't want no mo' spam, ma'm
If you are fool enough and gullible then advertising and government propaganda may affect you. Dont forget to think for yourself people.This message will self destruct in Novembet 2022.
Excellent point! As a 30 year programmer, I made the transition from C to C++, and saw some horrible code written by what I csll "academic " programmers. That sort of approach would elegantly hide away all traces of the applications flow by using every type of tool the programmers used in writing their thesis. I learned a lot if ways NOT to write readable, maintainable code. Most if my C++, looks mostly like C language with classes (and solved the problem I was assigned). C++ can keep its polymorphism and templates and other obfuscations thank you just the same.
There is an old, interesting blog post from Martin SÃstrik from 2012, about why he regretted writing Zero MQ socket comm library in C++ {http://250bpm.com/blog:4}
which I found rather amusing then and still.
Now, anyone up for s raging debate over the merits of C# vs. Java ?:-0
What do you base your opinion on , saying cloud computing is more expensive than running your own dedicated servers. Perhaps you did not have an optimized configuration or are not considering the full costs in your comparison.
It's all just makeup. The bigger issues that need fixing are under the skin. Its still confusing for example, when Word decides to move your graphics to some random location in your document.
Have you been screwed by the Office365 vs their free Office (microsoft live?) confusion? MS is so large that thete are two different development stream, with separate support groups. Try getting help from MS? Yea right! MS had only produced two good programs and 1 OS in their whole life (Visual Studio, Excel, and DOS).
They really have much more important problems to solve than their bloated UI.
Why did the guy fire at his passenger? If it was self defense, then how is this story any different from any other senseless gun murder? Guns and taxis are not the problem, it's bullets and violent people.
If we the people only get fed news that only appeals to us, how are we supposed to weigh out the issues of the day. Myopic insight only lead to self satisfied conclusions. Its sort of like only taking right hand turns and being bewildered why you only go in circles.
....uhhh, wouldn't be cheaper, safet, and better to just get to the cause of the problem and reduce carbon dioxide in the environment? Maybe fewer humans on this crowded bus would help.
If you're not in my contact list, then no pickup. leave a message, but robots don't usually....No more annoying calls!
And never, ever give your phone number out to anyone you don't know/trust.
Yea, right. And who are you to tell me where I can take a shit. How about if I leave one on your front steps. If you want pollute my environment, why can't I foul yours?
And this helps who? Not you and I , but big fat greedy investors and auto execs. Come US Government, start thinking long term...like more that 2 years out!
And what is up with American bubbys and their rediculous gas guzzling pickup trucks?
Americans can't count on their government to protect them from pollution fueled by greed, but consumers can boycott places that sell crap like Roundup.
Living without pesticides is what organic farming is all about. Feeding the world doesn't require poisoned food supply, it just needs better local farming, and maybe a bit of birth control. Intelligent people realize this, members of the to idiocity reap what they sow
I was referring to both. An API is sort of a contract. An interface is meant to be a defined relationship with expected responsibilities on the caller and the host. If the host wants to change the interface, they should add a new function, rather than modify the existing one. At least, they should notify the users that a serious change had been made, so that the caller can do better testing.
My question is ; who else is getting data about me from Google? Does Google sell it outright? I suppose that is their business model, but it would be nice to know how my metadata is distributed.

Yes indeed, Thats what ProtonMail is set up to do,

I can live without email, online shopping, streaming video, social networks, and (gasp!) even slahdot.
No fooling? Its a small world afterall.

So are we supposed to know what Dark Mode is, and why should I care anyway. Outlook already sucks...can it get any worse by making it dark?

Perhaps their server crashed mining bitcoins....

This has NOTHING to do with Donnyboy. That blowhard would take credit for the sunrise (and some morons would believe him too)
It's about fucking time! MASH has been off air since 1983,

Really? Microsoft made a phone? How did they display all that information in the blue screen of death?

That was about as insightful as a fart in a crowded elevator
Yes indeed America has the best politicians that money can buy!
