  1. can we stop calling audio books a book? since when did listening to someone read count as reading?

  2. Re:Well... on Ask Slashdot: Why Do We Still Commute? (citylab.com) · · Score: 1

    that's right, they're scared that we won't and can't work unsupervised. I work from home 100% and have never been to the office- same with most people on my team. We make it work with google hangouts, git, and other tools that work remotely.

  3. Re:They're in C++ programming teams on Ask Slashdot: Where Do Old Programmers Go? · · Score: 1

    +1. 45 here and just left a Java team lead type job for a realtime C++ job on flight systems. Literally doubled my pay too.

  4. I want a 1/4" plug on New iPhone 7 Case Brings Back the Headphone Jack (thenextweb.com) · · Score: 1

    forget the 3.5mm, I want a 1/4" jack to plug in my Sennheiser HD 800s

  5. Re:Not the only factor? on Apple's 16GB IPhone 6S Is a Serious Strategic Mistake · · Score: 1

    With the new App Thinning tools that Xcode provides, each newly developed app can be trimmed on needless garbage and graphics before it's downloaded. Have a iPhone 6, no need to download 2x and 3x icons/screens, and resources for an iPad Pro.

  6. 262 mil for a network? on South Pole to Get Highway · · Score: 1

    That's a lotta clams to connect to the net. I wonder how many contractors they had bid for the job? For 5 mil and a few geeks I'd expect to see a 802.11.x connection to span the globe, encode packets on laser, or do something fantastically cool, heh and also be reasonably priced. No wonder our economy is in the toilet. IMHO $262 million could be spent much more wisely. But just think of all the new jobs it'll generate for ice road construction engineers!

  7. Re:Ada on The Future of Java? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I use ADA everyday! Most of it, err syntax and such, is part of PL/SQL.
