Which will be found via sniffers (remember that luggage has enter go trough U.S. Customs screening ALSO) and he will be arrested.
If that was the case it would also be found when he tries to bring it into the cabin... we are obviously talking about "things" that can not be sniffed.
Even I with my mediocre military education know how to make a "thing" that can not be sniffed...
By doing this internationally you've also doubled the chances luggage scans will find your laptop bomb.
Obviously we are talking about people who do that intentionally...
You are mixing up Aspect Oriented Programming with Component Based Programming.
AOP is set on top of the JVM and meanwhile.NET and LLVM. It is about weaving aspects/advices into existing code at certain points. E.g. around variable access or method calls.
If you are into Java then AspectJ would be a starting point, for other languages you have to google (because I'm to lazy to do it for you), there is also Aspects for C++ (on source code even).
it says much of his temperament and inclination that he couldn't be bothered to learn in his own time either. Actually it does not. Why would anyone read C++ documentations that are not relevant for his job? He should/could have prepared for his job interview better. But considering the "anti programming language hate" here on/. (popping up all the time when a new language is announced) he probably had considered himself a freak if he had dug to deep into C++
Anyway, I wager that I "speak" more programming languages than anyone else here on/. Because it is my hobby. Not to follow some idiotic "should be obvious" expectations of a job interviewer.
It's very easy to do too even if the day job is something else. Find a technology that looks interesting, think of a non-trivial project that would be a good fit for that technology and write it. I hope you don't die on overwork.
My advice is to get a nice hobby, I do sailing, rock climbing and 3 kinds of martial arts. Much more rewarding than doing the same bullshit you are required to do at work in your free time, too. And when I'm together with my spouse (she does not live on my place) there are plenty of things we do together, cooking comes in my mind, among other "obvious" things.
Requesting that people learn in their spare time skills in programming where they never know if they need them is idiotic. Sorry to say it like this.
For me it is easy, I just read something about computing and then I know it. No need to "learn" or "practice" for me. Other people need months for stuff that I learn in a day. They don't have those months, they have to take care for a real life, kids and souses etc.
Well... TVs A set-top-box is not a TV. And the software running on it is not running in the TV either, and where never supposed (at that time) to have a rich GUI.
User Stories are IMHO a bit to low in abstraction and specification. They are to much human readable and require human interaction between the coders, the BAs and the customers.
If you would say Use Cases and Scenarios, that specify much more precisely what Actors are involved and how they interact then you are right.
They explicitly overlook the fact that the languages they are always citing are written in C/C++ and rely to an extreme degree on libraries written in C/C++ even when they manage to self-host the languages. It's an ignorance of what the tools they are using actually are. This is not ignorance but irrelevant.
How many people are working right now in C++ on the Oracle Java VM? And how many people are working in Java, Kotlin, Scala, Groovy with that VM?
Those "how popular a language" is topics are not really relevant.
Most languages more or less work the same, the details and flaws are mostly in the libraries (see PHP) or in some niche corners of automatic type conversions (see JavaScript and also C).
Bottom line it does not really matter if you write Java or C++. A competent programmer should learn the other language in a day or two and get good in it in a few weeks or months.
Of course there are edge cases. I don't expect everyone to become super fluent (quickly) in SQL, Smalltalk, Groovy or Lisp or Prolog or Haskell, OCaml or COBOL or Fortran.
However: even if you are not fluent in any of those languages, with a little bit of intelligence you should be able to fix simple bugs. Writing a new program from scratch is obviously more difficult. Look at COBOL e.g. with its "strange" PIC data layouts and so many "divisions". I mean I fixed a bout 1M lines of code in COBOL for Y2K faults, however I could not really "write COBOL".
Kotlin is around about 5 or 6 years, not sure. I don't see a big advantage over Scala or Java 8, probably easier than Scala as it is closer to Java. However the company, JetBrains, offers Kotlin to JavaScript and native code compilation. Kotlin to native could be interesting on Android, on other platforms I fear they don't have the cross platform libraries (GUI, Networking etc.)
But the regional dean of Northeastern University-Silicon Valley has the glummest prediction of all. "If I were to look at a crystal ball, I don't think the world's going to need as many coders after 2020. Ninety percent of coding is taking some business specs and translating them into computer logic. That's really ripe for machine learning and low-end AI."
This is actually true. I wrote a "spec" (as in heavy formalized use case descriptions) to Java/Groovy source code "converter" about 10 years ago. It was super easy to make proof of concept prototypes.
Because in the real world events are happening where the programmers are unaware about.
E.g. a storm that requires planes to be redirected or volcanos as the last eruptions in Iceland, or a hijacking a medical accident etc.
Sure you could have a "I like to land at your airport" button in a plane and computers on the ground could take over the scheduling. As soon as someone would propose a standard there would probably a decade long process of assessments for hardware/software for those standards.
I guess the costs for putting that all in software is astronomic. Considering that people here on/. are scared of self driving cars...
The driver is a "black box" from the point of view of the insurance company.
Unless he is not guilty or partly guilty in a car accident his rates wont change.
And I don't know why you think I care what insurance companies in Europe do. Because no one cares what insurance companies in the US do... the planet has 7 billion people and you are only 400,000,000.
None has a "travel range" only "fun ranges", good enough to commute to work or use it a day or two in a city without recharging, but e.g. not suitable to travel 500km.
Yeah, and that place is called "Anvers Island" as I mentioned. So what is your point?
If you want to nitpick then the most "northern" part of antarctica is in the south east... On the link you gave it is below the "W" of the landmark "Wilkes Land";D
But then again we can argue if the X in the middle is the geographic or magnetic south pole. Perhaps the tip of Anvers Island is indeed a bit more north than the small peninsula "below" Wilkes Lands.
On the other hand, perhaps the map on your link is not very precise, or my eyes are bad?
This map shows "Anvers Island" significantly farer away from the south pole (hence more north) than that south eastern peninsula: http://www.destination360.com/...
Medical aid is not "drugs" it is hospitals, and doctors and nurses, and in the end medicals. I doubt Cuba is to dumb to produce its own medicals.
And the american health system is notorious for being the most expensive of the world, so it is no wonder that some american companies develop/produce drugs for it. But those drugs don't end up in Cuba. Remember: USA has a trade embargo on Cuba.
Plenty of countries have Corporations that develop and distribute medicals. Why you think most medicals in the world come from the US is beyond me.
Ah, something like "america is great", in my eyes it is a third world nation that happens to have by accident a lot of carriers. Thats it...
In the absence of GPS you have not much ways to define where you are and where you want to go to.
So the "navigators" agreed on an international standard. I actually gave some links, why you are to dumb to read them is beyond me. So I give you a new one: https://www.google.com/search?...
Do you wonder why those pictures all look the same? And are not randomly rotated? Hu?
I guess you don't. So I explain it to you. That are pictures, and maps look the same, where north is up, south is down, east is right and west is left. That is the "standard" for maps, but it helps to check the "legend", some times maps are not orientated "north up"
Or if you you simply are really to dump to grasp it: north is along the 0 meridian. South is along the 180 meridian and west is along the 90 degrees west meridian and east is along the 90 degrees east meridian.
If you find a better way to navigate in the Antarctics or Arctics you are free to propose it to the naval and air travel standard institutes.
Hu? Which point do you want to make? You are free to come to my house and check yourself.
And if you have a time machine we can check the medieval warm Period(S!... you seem not even to know that we had 2 or 3 of them, depending which time frame you call "medieval")
And I never said: we have "no insects" that would be pretty stupid when a honey bee is right now above me in the tree. However: it is only one. It should be a few hundreds.
Life isn't fair. But what the rich can buy today will be available to the rest of us tomorrow. In case of the next antibiotics break through, this is extremely unlikely. Because the next one afterwards is probably another 50 years in the future. Hint: antibiotics are not a research like building a bigger rocket. The later is 'easy' the former is a lucky accident.
In the US low doses of antibiotics are given as 'steroids' to increase muscle growth. People from there on/. argue that there is no scientific evidence for the facts you claim. (*facepalm*)

I explained to you how to navigate at the poles.
At every planet you have to set up an agreed on system.
No idea what is so hard to grasp.
The english of indians might be hard to understand for americans, because of pronunciation, but usually it is very good.
You seem not to be aware that english is the official language in India, which has about 800 local languages.
Ah well, "don't make fun about bad english speakers! Because they speak a second language!"
How many languages do you speak?

They can easily but 100x to 1000x slower than a program written in C, C++ or Fortran.
This is nonsense.
I doubt you can find an example where Java/.NET is only half as fast as "C, C++ or Fortran".

Look e.g. at https://cucumber.io/
However you are right, too. Programming/programmers wont go away for the foreseeable future and most likely never.
C++ meanwhile supports basically everything other modern languages provide.
You seem to be stuck in 1998 or something ...
C and C++ are not the same thing, so making a very long statement about both of them is most certainly always wrong for one of the two languages.
Because in the real world events are happening where the programmers are unaware about.
E.g. a storm that requires planes to be redirected or volcanos as the last eruptions in Iceland, or a hijacking a medical accident etc.

Which drugs?

left is west, right is east. .what is so hard to grasp?
How does the bacteria that got resistant in a cow by abuse of antibiotics know that it is now eating a human alive and is not supposed to do so?
