First, usage is not evenly distributed. Second, some things you can only do in one language. And third, there are different groups of coders for each language. Take C coders, for example. If you use established Linux kernel core coders, you get completely different numbers compared to using newbie kernel driver coders.
And then you have that vulnerability is not the same as vulnerability. Simple counting metrics are basically always fundamentally flawed and give you a completely unrealistic picture. If both an easily usable remote vulnerability with privilege escalation is counted the same as a very hard to exploit local vulnerability that just allows you read access to some not very critical data, then the result is utterly meaningless. You also get situations were what is one vulnerability in one language counts as several in another, for example because it is a combined vulnerability in a library in one and separate simpler components in another.
Hence statistics like this one do a lot of harm by confusing the issue and help not one bit to actually see a fragment of reality. They abstracted too much away. It is like, for example, they judge whether people are good or bad according to their beer brewing skills. You will find good beer brewers that were mass-murderers, and ones that were saints. The results of such an evaluation is completely meaningless.
You have no clue how things actually work. They do most decidedly not "collect everything". That would cause numerous problems, among them that their collection methods would be far too easy to detect. This is not a game that works well with a big ego (which you have in spades), bit one that requires some actual insight (of which you have none).
Oh, yes. They have a theory they know to be wrong (no quantum gravity so far, something is very fundamentally broken theory-wise) and they use it to give extraordinary explanations? That is just hubris.
This is about having them put on a band-aid and claiming that was the action of a surgeon. Any educated person can write simple code. Does not mean anything.
Yes to both. I am trying to follow George Charlin's advice to "just not give a shit" about ACs, but I clearly have some way to go still. Stupidity just sets me off.
Indeed. But the West was supposed to be the model that showed everybody how it could be done differently. Seems that failed and the whole world is going to hell. Again.
Are you deranged? Why would I not use anything just because it is not trustworthy? Listen, moron, here is how you do it: You use it but you do not trust it. Takes two brain cells to rub together to see that though and you clearly do not have them.
Being dumb does change reality. Although dumb people are known to not get that. Well, I look forward to morons like you saying dumb things like "How could we have known?" and "It was xyz that ruined it!"
If repeated bad experiences would create insight in the average person, we would not be in the mess we are in.... From available evidence, most people will do the same dumb shit until they cannot anymore. And then they will blame it on somebody else.
There will always be some reasonable phones with replaceable batteries. From other observations, I would deduce that only about 10% of the customers care, but that is no small market-share and far too large to ignore.
This is no surprise for anybody that actually understands electronics. 2..3 years is all you get with non-replaceable LiPo batteries and daily use. One of the reasons I consider a phone or other device with a non-replaceable battery to be defective by design and will not buy it.
That he even needs to point this fact out just speaks to the general climate of stupid cheering for things people do not understand. Full self-driving is still at least 10 years in the future and general availability more like 15...20 years. May also take quite a bit longer.
Not today, but the and of antibiotics is in sight. Anybody hastening it is effectively a mass-murderer. How can people be this stupid? Oh, right, climate-change deniers, flat-earthers, Trump-fans,...
The human race as a whole does not deserve to survive. Too dumb.

Ah, no? It is not?

Quantum Physics does find more and more evidence that their theory is nonsense ans needs a major revision. But I guess they have never heard of KISS.

He is. I think he knows that but thought this had to be pointed out again.
Since you are listening (well, as far as you are capable, which is clearly rather pathetic), obviously not.
Yes to both. I am trying to follow George Charlin's advice to "just not give a shit" about ACs, but I clearly have some way to go still. Stupidity just sets me off.
You are not an Apple user. Not fanatical enough. But kudos for trying.

I never said to get rid of it. Whatever gave you that idea? Just do not put stuff on it you want to keep secret.
You pay, say, $150 per year, and every 2 years you get a new pair of them.That is if you send in your old ones. If not, you pay an extra $50.

Apple marketing thinks your idea is just dumb...

The price for looking cool is high, but many are willing to pay it.

And why would I do that? Are you stupid? (Well, you are an AC, so the question is redundant...)

Anything to make a quick buck. No matter whom you kill in the slightly longer run.

You are cheering for the downfall of your own country? Fascinating.
