Every person I have met that used the word silo in a business context coincidentally turned out to be the most annoying, corporate ass-licking mediocre under achieving loser.
The punishment has to be high to make the risk not worth while. there might be a 1% chance of getting caught so 10x the cost as a punishment would make a clever thief extremely rich.
Google+ is a frankenstein monster between Twitter and Facebook with Google Wave thrown in, something Microsoft would be proud of. If Google had any balls they would shut it down and sack anyone who backed it.
The more you abstract what's underneath the less performance you can achieve. Assembly vs C, C vs Java/C#/Python, Running code on a host vs a guest virtual machine, I think you get the point.
Nasa put men on the moon in the 60's so does that mean we should all be going on holiday (vacation) to the moon? Some technologies don't scale or are too expensive to mass produce.
As a standalone subject Math is too abstract, the relevant areas should be taught along side the subjects where it is applied. I think a lot of degrees could be cut down to a year or two. Cut out all the crap that no one needs to know and make that part of a further research degree. Revolutionize the education system with my ideas, or fall behind when I move to China and they listen to me.
Same could be said for the IPhone. I know a few people who got a Windows phone and they have returned them due to crashes and the phone cutting off etc.
I want to live in a World where I can zoom into any place on earth and have HD realtime video, anywhere including inside people's homes. People who disagree with this must be terrorists or doing bad stuff.
Ok you give away your privacy, but its worth it to never be bored again, ever!
Modern like C and MS Access is a language?
Don't put C and Java together, one is a efficient, correct level of abstraction, powerful language, the other is a bloated, slow, over protective, not that portable pile of junk.
"But C is like a sharp tool you can shoot yourself"
If you were cutting down a tree would you want to use a blunt axe, in case you were such a moron you would slice your own arm off?
Why would you want to rewrite that pile of crap. Java is all about bloat, and generic frameworks that can be used to do anything, but usually fail for your particular requirements. Anything you can write in Java you can write in C, with only a little over head.
Yeah who cares if the video is stuttering, as long as we (might) be able to run the media player on every system that has a JVM.
John: "Hey this JMediaPlayer keeps stuttering"
Joe: "Yeah but you can run it on you washing machine, maybe"
Idiot "Look I rewrote this in Java now everyone can download it and install it".
Other: "Why is running so slow, also 99% of our users are on Windows, Linux or OSX, wouldn't it be easier to release 3 binaries?"
Idiot: "Yeah but what if a new platform comes out?"
Other: "But would there be a Java runtime?"
Idiot: "Not right away, maybe in a few years"
Other: "You're fired"

Ok so I can install Windows with no antivirus, no malware protection and use IE without worrying about anything? About time!!
So it runs Windows? Who cares if it survives a fall or in Antarctica, as soon as you connect it to the net it will be infested with malware and virii!
Maybe now Fedora will switch to apt-get. Wait... was the guy driving working for ubuntu by any chance?
Instant LCD, Jesus. Sound like you've take one too many LSD.
Jesus's toenail as he rose to heaven??

Yeah, like saying Hitler was not important in the life of Jews.

Yeah that line of tin foil hats you have were in use 200 years ago.

Yeah while you wait someone to write a VM, 5 years earlier recompiled my C program and now have the market share.
You can write portable C code that will run without altering the code.
Fix the error, write good code. That the problem, "look with our programming language you can write shit code", moral hazard.
