With 16K ram that was later upgraded to 48K so that I could play Jet Set Willy on it. While I did like it, my friends later got Commodore 64s which were a lot better so I always kind of regretted not waiting and getting a C64 myself instead of the Spectrum.
When you've managed to go from 4 years minimum to 6 months probation then maybe you've reached the point where you don't think it's worth pushing your luck any further.
You were annoying the developers because you were doing it the wrong way. Your factor of four speed doc writing improvement comes out of the developer interruption budget.
Having "auto download" turned on has been perfectly fine for non idiots who've managed their library themselves until this unexpected meddling by someone else. Now, of course, the non idiots will have to turn what they might have felt was a useful feature off since we've learnt that Apple will be using it as a promotional tool.
In how many real world programming situations rather than college test situations would you be required to write your code down on paper rather than be able to use some sort of IDE? I'm sure you felt great about the test but generally being used to start typing the statement and letting IntelliSense give you a list and filling in the blanks in is not a problem and a more productive way of doing things than the non lazy way.
For those who don't know about english football: Tottenham have some sort of jewish connection, not quite sure exactly what at the moment but anyway, and their fans frequently refer to themselves as 'yids'. That's why opposing fans would choose this angle to bait them.
I was once asked to move a checkbox from the bottom to the top of a panel so that the user wouldn't have to tab through all the other textfields and things in the panel to get focus to the checkbox. I was then asked to change the focus traversal so that tabbing through the panel skipped the checkbox (yes, really) so they wouldn't have to tab past it every time they wanted focus on the first textfield. These requests came from the same user.
That's how I learnt. I was also lucky enough to have an admin on the mud that made sure the wizards she was in charge of understood the importance of writing good code and not just nice descriptions for players. It made me interested enough to switch major and when it was time to do the OO stuff in school I'd already groked it. Basically I have Lars Pensjà to thank for my career.

I'd like to see vi become the official editor of the United States of America, and at the same time I would like to see Emacs declared an illegal tool only people of an evil doer persuasion would use and banned and hunted down. Start the War on Emacs and you'll have my vote. Thank you.
For me, writing something with a pen is still faster than typing it on a phone keyboard. I also require less muscle control to write with a pen than I do to not throw the phone into a wall after I've hit the wrong letter for the 10th time in a five word sentance.

An app that frequently asks for permission to use the mic despite being denied every time would not live long on my phone.
If Fortnight was a book, how many libraries of congress would it rival?
Everyone in Gothenburg is named Glenn. There's even a song about that.
But how many libraries of congress of land every hour is that?
Pretty optimistic to think there will be future generations around in 58 years. Never mind Google or Facebook.

First priority is going to be to make everyone log in by using their Facebook accounts, isn't it? That will be lovely!
What are the practical applications for a breakthrough like this? Other than for a government that wants to do some redacting of their documents.
The Onion is a more credible news source than The Sun.

Yes it's far better to reinvent the wheel yourself. After all, you're the only one competent enough to make a decent wheel.
Why not store it all in 20000 github repositories?

That sounds like Airplane II: The Sequel. In that case I think it's ok that some scientific realism was sacrificed.

Is ThreadPooExecutor instead of ThreadPoolExecutor a freudian slip or a concious comment on the quality of said component?
