  1. Re:Subtle.. on Why Apple and Google Made Their Own Programming Languages · · Score: 2

    Have you not noticed that almost all programmers are men? That means that when you use the word "she", you're saying it only to make a political statement, not because you think it actually describes the situation.

  2. Re:Hard To Say on How Much JavaScript Do You Need To Know For an Entry-Level Job? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Slashdot is still quite useable without javascript if you use the Classic discussion system, I find.

  3. Re:No media center? Windows 10 is DEAD to me... on Features That Windows 10 Will Deprecate · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't you be thanking Microsoft for that?

  4. Re:Why bother Steve Albini? on Steve Albini: The Music Industry Is a Parasite -- and Copyright Is Dead · · Score: 1

    If shilling this obvious isn't at -1, there's a serious problem with the moderation on this site.

  5. "This is why Google, Facebook, et al all have huge programs supporting STEM for minority elementary, middle and high school students"

    That is NOT why they are doing that. They are doing that so they can fabricate some evidence for the idea that there's a shortage of tech workers so they can increase the number of H1Bs, who they can treat as indentured servants and drive down wages.

  6. Re:Bullshit laws (Re:Stucturing) on Why Is It a Crime For Dennis Hastert To Evade Government Scrutiny? · · Score: 1

    Of course it does not. He's an obvious shill, trying to derail the conversation.

  7. Re:But since nothing is CPU bound on Intel Releases Broadwell Desktop CPUs: Core i7-5775C and i5-5675C · · Score: 1

    Clocking them down is not stealing from CPU performance? Your own quote contradicts what you're saying.

  8. Re: Yes, but because on Steve Albini: The Music Industry Is a Parasite -- and Copyright Is Dead · · Score: 1

    Recently, however, I was informed that that this makes me a luddite because I want to own copies of my music instead of having a Spotify account.

    Who told you that, some Spotify shill? Don't listen to such nonsense. Having your own copies of music makes far more sense.

  9. Re: I don't really buy it on Mandriva CEO: Employee Lawsuits Put Us Out of Business · · Score: 1

    The parent stated that it was his opinion that they couldn't have won a lawsuit asking to be paid if they had been paid. Your coworker stated that he had information that he did not have. I don't see how that could possibly remind you of your moron coworker unless things remind you of completely unrelated things all the time.

  10. Re:Love it on Adblock Plus Victorious Again In Court · · Score: 0

    Save the image link posts for reddit. That's idiotic here.

  11. Re:No code? Political Science? Techwriter? on Building Hospitable Open Source Communities (Video) · · Score: 1

    Those so-called experts in user-interface design brought us Gnome 3, Unity, and Windows 8, and the ongoing dumbing-down of the Firefox UI.

  12. Re:So cool on A Conversation with Druva Co-Founder Jaspreet Singh (Video) · · Score: 0

    Then become a Sikh, and stop boring us with this nonsense.

  13. Re: Oh for fucks sake on The Economic Consequences of Self-Driving Trucks · · Score: 2

    If you can't think of one yourself, then you deserve to get murdered by the disenfranchised poor.

  14. Re:I'm shocked ... on Two Programmers Expose Dysfunction and Abuse In the Seattle Police Department · · Score: 1

    An even better idea is that if the equipment malfunctions, then the cop is found guilty of everything he's accused of - no trial - and sentenced like an ordinary criminal.

  15. Re:Why are they allowed to get away with this? on RealTek SDK Introduces Vulnerability In Some Routers · · Score: 2

    Liability belongs with the ones making a profit from it, Anonymous Idiot.

  16. Idiots on Breakthough Makes Transparent Aluminum Affordable · · Score: 0

    Aluminum oxynitride. That's a compound, idiots. It makes as much sense to call it "transparent aluminum" as it does to call water "liquid hydrogen".

  17. Re:No cuts are ever possible on House Bill Slashes Research Critical To Cybersecurity · · Score: 1

    How is other Western nations ordering the awful F-35 evidence of anything other than massive corruption and the true nature of the relationship between the US government and their supposed allies?

    And you're a goddamn fucking retard if you think that that plane is being ordered for its air to air capabilities. "make every other combat aircraft anyone has ever designed obsolete"... You are fucking stupid and know nothing about combat aircraft. Nothing. Su-35s club these things like baby seals. F-35s are for air to ground. Only the F-22 has anything approaching the capabilities you've talked of. Don't talk about shit you don't understand.

  18. Re:ZERO positive comments here for new google maps on Google Sunsetting Old Version of Google Maps · · Score: 1

    But you're a retard, since you like such an inferior product just because it's new and you call everyone names who doesn't. Fuck you. Who cares what you think? Furthermore, even though near 100% negative feedback of something doesn't necessarily mean that it's bad due to the self-selection of people who hate it, it sure as fucking hell doesn't support the idea that it is actually good despite all the hate.

  19. Re:The new version is terrible! on Google Sunsetting Old Version of Google Maps · · Score: 1

    Why can't you accept that other people spot flaws in new products because they are flawed? Do you think that everything that is newer is automatically better? Anyone who doesn't like a new revision of a product is just an old fuddy-duddy?

  20. Re:The new version is terrible! on Google Sunsetting Old Version of Google Maps · · Score: 1

    What exactly would you expect to find in such a forum if a product actually is horrible and a huge regression, which the new Google Maps actually is?

  21. Re:Lets use correct terminology. on MakerBot Lays Off 20 Percent of Its Employees · · Score: 0

    No, you're an idiot. Anyone is capable of hurting anyone else at ANY time. If you think that it's better to be on the safe side when laying them off, then it's better to have armed guards surrounding the employees at all times while they're working, too.

  22. Re:More dicks please on FBI Accuses Researcher of Hacking Plane, Seizes Equipment · · Score: 1

    You think that dynamic memory allocation is required for there to be a security vulnerability and yet you brag about your expert knowledge?

  23. Re:Break the key apart? on U.S. Gov't Grapples With Clash Between Privacy, Security · · Score: 1

    If you don't see a difference between shooting down a warplane in a time of war, and attacking people just walking around without a declaration of war, thus extending it to potentially anyone on the planet, at any time, in a "war" that has no objectives, no defined enemy, and will never end, you are a truly evil person. Which you are.

  24. Have they not heard on Google To Offer Ad-Free YouTube - At a Price · · Score: 1

    ... of AdBlock?

    Why would anyone pay for this?

  25. Re:And yet, no one understands Git. on 10 Years of Git: An Interview With Linus Torvalds · · Score: 2

    The problem with what you're saying is that Mercurial exists, and it can do everything that git can do with an easy to use interface.
