Meanwhile, a thousand Trump supporters run around proclaiming "Obama bugged Trump! We know so because Trump said so!"
I'm going to risk the inevitable downmod from the rabid hard right and alt-right types by finally thinking that we have maybe another six to nine months before even a majority of Republicans in Congress begin planning to remove this imbecile from office. I think there are at least decent odds that by this time next year we'll be bitching and moaning about President Pence.
ARM's architecture is at least still nominally RISC, and I suspect at this point the number of ARM chips out there in the wild outnumbers Intel chips, I'd say RISC is still very much alive.
They do the job, for the most part (excluding gotchas like file system differences), but just try to develop a GUI application in even the more modern interpreted languages that will run reasonably well in multiple environments. Java, whatever you think of the language, still has the upper hand in portable applications.
I think you've missed your cognitive therapy session, my fine Aspergers friend. Believe it or not, on a web forum, most people well and truly don't give a fuck about spelling mistakes.
The chief complaints are incompatibilities between versions, but that's a pretty damned silly complaint. I too have never had an issue with Java applications I've developed working on different platforms. That's not to say I'm the biggest fan of the Java language, but it works as advertised, at least in every case where I've used it.
I agree here. I've seen a lot of abstraction libraries that attempt to make cross-platform development easy, and even some work on interpreted languages to make cross-platform execution possible. I can write CLI PHP or Python scripts that, by and large, work on all major hardware and software platforms, but there are still quite a few gotchas, particularly when it comes to file systems. That extends to web apps as well, and it's pretty easy to build PHP, Python, Ruby or whatever your flavor is for web apps.
But when it comes to GUI applications, I haven't seen anything that comes close to Java. I'm not always the biggest fan of Java, but at the moment, JVM is the only cross-architecture platform that really does deliver. It's not always pleasant, but I have yet to have a Java app fail when moving between *nix and Windows.
What the hell kind of restaurants do you go to? I've certainly had my share of bad service, but that's always been the case. I've also had fairly good service.
I think the latter claim is somewhat debatable, at least so far as jurisprudence. While I think there's no lack of bad jurisprudence at all levels, claiming a particular ruling is overreach has to rely on more than "I don't like it", which seems to be the source of many complaints.
Government isn't some alien entity imposed on people. Too much limitation of government would render it useless, and would undermine many peoples' liberty by preventing a coordinated response. Better to have checks and balances.
Perhaps the problem is how you express your opinion. To be frank you come off as a bit of a jerk, which I suspect you know very well. That is why you post AC, to try to minimize the consequences of acting like a fucking asshole.
Libertarians tend to weigh everything in monetary terms, and tend to overvalue the contributions of people with higher wages, which allows them to dehumanize low wage earners.
This is like some sort of 19th century industrialist's argument for child labor. "You see, I pay them next to nothing and keep them in horrible conditions for their own good!"
If that's the case, then the entire human race needs to move to the bottom of salt mines, because the amount of radiation being produced by the sun ought to fry our brains by the time we're six months old.
I'd just like to add to that that one of the indirect ways we know that larger more complex multicellular lifeforms didn't involve into the last billion years is because oxygen levels didn't normalize through the Great Oxygenation Event until about a billion years ago. Oxygen is pretty darned important to most, if not all multicellular organisms, but is toxic to many anaerobic organisms, which are almost inevitably single-celled, and which would have dominated for much of Earth's history.

I'd argue the misuse of the term "treason" is a sign of mental health issues.
Chefs have always been prima donas, which is why owners keep them in the kitchen.

Where did I sah I support Communism?
Somehow I expected to see an attempt to shift the burden of proof, and I wasn't disappointed.
Can you provide an actual statistical analysis of your conclusion, or is your entire world view based on a limited number of anecdotes?
Perhaps the problem is how you express your opinion. To be frank you come off as a bit of a jerk, which I suspect you know very well. That is why you post AC, to try to minimize the consequences of acting like a fucking asshole.

You mean like anonymous AC trolls?

You understand, I trust, that the sun produces more than just EM radiation in the visible spectrum, right?
You understand that as long there has been life on this planet, it has been bathed in EM radiation, right?
Let me ask you. Can the body tolerate solar RF?
If that's the case, then the entire human race needs to move to the bottom of salt mines, because the amount of radiation being produced by the sun ought to fry our brains by the time we're six months old.
Eventually people pay tax. Wow, that's insightful. Yes, doubtless labor will pay tax, as will shareholders, but taxes are part of life.

Or we could just up corporate taxes and accept that full-time long-term employment in many sectors is a thing of the past.
