  1. here's the deal on The President Wants Every Student To Learn CS. How Would That Work? (npr.org) · · Score: 0

    you need to have a certain disposition to be a great coder. Not some circa 2000 "web developer". You have to be comfortable, day in day out, recognizing patterns and solving problems using the best possible approaches. I cannot stress enough how many completely incompetent "programmers" that thrive on coasting, pointing fingers, and social engineering their way through a career for which they have no aptitude.

  2. Agile on Is Agile Development a Failing Concept? · · Score: 0

    well no most coders are rather clumsy. Look I don't have time for morning snuggles or can can boards.. Don't force nerds to talk about their code, omg we're trying to avoid that. Just show me who to beat the specs out of and let's program, muffukas

  3. Re:Nope. Not happening. on Is Big Data Leaving Hadoop Behind? · · Score: 1

    I would strongly disagree. In 1995 relational theory and practice was well understood by a large set of developers and had stable, well documented implementations. Raw Hadoop and the associated computational model is not at that level of stability, documentation and usability. In addition the relational model applies to many business problems, large and small. Hadoop is generally applicable and cost efficient only for larger, more complex problems.

    you can't strongly anything as an AC, sorry buddy

  4. wow you got that out of it? on With the Surface Pro, Microsoft Is Trying To Recreate the PC Market · · Score: 0

  7. Promises on Ask Slashdot: When Is a Better Career Opportunity Worth a Pay Cut? · · Score: 0

    Don't be a fool, you expect what you consider you're worth, what they say they consider you're worth. It may be a gamble on future successes, but ensure a rock solid piece of the future pie if you go that route. A smiley face, promises, and a handshake doesn't mean jack shit in the real world. You can, and will, take that to the bank.

  8. Re:Fuck Beta on Big Pharma Presses US To Quash Cheap Drug Production In India · · Score: 0

    Again, foolish. You mistake this effort as detrimental to the future of Slashdot. No, wrong. The effort is the last stand for the future of Slashdot as we know it.

  10. Re:Fuck Beta on Big Pharma Presses US To Quash Cheap Drug Production In India · · Score: 1

    You are a fool. Persistence is the only strategy that works, and it's an honest strategy because users are passionate about this site. You want people to complain for a bit, and then fade away. Many have been on this site for over a decade, and expect some reciprocation of the loyalty for their contributions to the site over the years. Again, you are a fool and a buffoon sir. Good night.

    in this case change is utter shite, why would you change something that is great into poo?

  13. Listening means on Slashdot Tries Something New; Audience Responds! · · Score: 1

    ... killing the beta. It's not good, it's bad. Let's stay with a design that doesn't suck... how's that for feedback, you are listening right?

    It's a crappy beta with nothing good.

    It's important to note.. that beta blows.. it's really not good, if you're not improving the site then wtf are you doing?

    If that's the case, that's extremely inefficient.

  22. Re:OMG on USA Today Names Edward Snowden Tech Person of the Year · · Score: 0

    this is a great tag team attempt at a derail.. I'm fascinated at all the attempts to derail, so many different angles and attempts, it's like a crash course in media manipulation. The presence of evil in this thread is overpowering, in a very real sense.

  23. Re:OMG on USA Today Names Edward Snowden Tech Person of the Year · · Score: 0

    lol this reminds me of that Jack Nicholson scene in a Few Good Men.. '...my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!' Sorry Jack, the audience cheered when you were arrested and escorted away in cuffs.
