  1. Blaaaah blaaaah blaaaah just hijack the thread for your uninformed and meritless opinions.

  2. Re:I’ve stayed away on Homebrew 2.0 is Here With Official Support For Linux and Windows (brew.sh) · · Score: 1

    Simply untrue. Just checked. /usr/local/bin is not world or group writable.

  3. Well... that didn't take long.

  4. Obvious on Who's Responsible For IoT Security? (networkworld.com) · · Score: 1

    The user. One can sell the consumer all sorts of defective product, it is the consumer that uses them - possibly to detrimental effect. If you want to use insecure IoT appliances that violate your security or privacy then go ahead but STOP COMPLAINING about being burned by that. Your alternative is to not buy them or turn them off or inform yourself BEFORE buying and using them.

  5. Yes I use RSS. on Slashdot Asks: Do You Still Use RSS? · · Score: 1

    Yes. I do. A lot.

  6. opensuse on Ask Slashdot: What's The Easiest Linux Distro For A Newbie? · · Score: 1

    You know... if he's fed up I think he knows a thing or two about operating systems. Maybe he should have a look at OpenSUSE.

  7. Yeah you know what? All of those things that have replaceable batteries are unable to make phone calls or write texts. You're spouting misinformation. iPhone batteries can be replaced. I even did it myself once. Not a problem.

  8. what? those haters from wsj spouting nonsense again?

  9. if you think devs are stupid... on Why Some Devs Can't Wait For NoSQL To Die · · Score: 1

    Oh shoei. Must have been a slow day. Yes everybody that uses an SQL database for no good reason is insane. Yes everybody that uses a NoSQL database because it is the latest-and-greatest has the same affliction. Use what fits your purpose. SQL or NoSQL? Does not matter.

  10. BSOD on British Royal Navy Submarines Now Run Windows · · Score: 1

    Botnet Submersible Of Doom....

  11. Obey the rules on Optimizations - Programmer vs. Compiler? · · Score: 1

    Rule #1: Do not optimize!
    Rule #2: Do not optimize! Yet!

    In other words: hand optimizing code is a Bad Thing (TM). It is taking time better spent making your code neat and understandable and well documented. It is obfuscating your code and making it hard to maintain.
    Last but not least, it is an unfounded approach to optimization. If it turns out that the code needs optimization, use a profiler and then optimize where needed. Annotate the optimized code with the original one and a clear warning you have been optimizing that piece of code.
