Figure out how to solve the quantum tunneling gate leakage power problem and you've got a winner. Photolithography has never been identified as a show stopper to continued gate shrinkage. Gate leakage at these dimensions is.
Two observations:
1) The low hanging fruit in physics has been picked.
2) Physics depends upon engineers to develop the technology they used in their experiments. Even Elon Musk, a physicist, has acknowledged that physics often waits for engineering to give them the tools scientists need to test their theories. Case in point, CERN, which depends upon vast computational capabilities to verify their theories that would have been prohibitively expensive even 20 years ago. LIGO required incredibly accurate distance measurements that could not have been built 20 years ago. Most astronomical discoveries these days (and astronomical scale physics experiments) depend upon real-time adaptive optics that could not have been built prior to the mid-1990s.
"Apple stands accused of engaging in a 'multi-year campaign of sloppy, inappropriate and deceitful conduct'."
None of which is illegal. This accusation is sloppy, inappropriate, and unless an actual legal violation emerges somewhere, deceitful conduct.
"The other purpose is that many "app" developers are not professional programmers." I think this is the true reason. The next great "app" will come from someone who wouldn't know "big O" notation if they stepped on it. They won't care. They'll only want to create an app that addresses some issue unique to their industry/hobby. All the peripheral marketing hoopla from Apple seems to support this point of view. Once they have their app up (however broken) and are deriving a revenue stream, they can hire software minions for mice nuts to repair the problems.
"During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country’s economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system."
Spin this however you want. The quote is real and the sentiment behind "creating" stands for itself.
The man on the pioneer plaque was supposed to look African and the woman was supposed to look Asian. However, after years of exposure to cosmic rays and micrometeorites, I'm sure the aliens will believe we have acne and pits all over our bodies.
"According to court documents obtained by Bleeping Computer, Grupe asked management to resign..." What was management's answer when asked to resign? Did they?
RG-59 is approximately 20pF/ft, so figure out how much capacitance you have and use it in a distributed filter for any low voltage equipment fixed near your walls.
If you look at the survey data, the difference between, Python, C, and Java rankings were statistically insignificant. A very small amount of measurement noise could have placed any of these three in the number one position. In fact, C++ could have made the number one slot as well. One has to get to C#, R, and Javascript to begin to see any meaningful spread. Bottom line, I would get worked up about this list.
You should try TOPSPICE by Penzar Development. I've been using it for years and it does both schematic capture as well as simulation. I've compared its results to both HSPICE and Smartspice and have been amazed by the results. It also does binning of BSIM3 models.
My brother-in-law works in the McGregor area and tells me that SpaceX had informed local government when the test was to take place. Local government, well... being local government, failed to properly inform the populace of McGregor. When they test fired the engine (at night), it lite up the sky like daylight for about 20 miles around, while creating the noise typical of a rocket launch (in other words over 150 dB). This apparently caught the attention of most of the populace, who thought WWIII had landed in their backyard. It made the evening news in Waco (about 20 miles east of McGregor). FYI_1: the SpaceX test platform is located about two miles southwest of McGregor. Google Earth has high quality images. FYI_2: SpaceX has taken over the old Rocketdyne solid rocket propulsion development plant in McGregor. The history is Philips Petroleum -> North American Aviation Rocketdyne -> Rockwell Rocketdyne -> Hercules -> Alliant Techsystems -> closure and for sale -> SpaceX. There may have been something before SpaceX.

The epitome of a first world problem...

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that Al Gore invented the internet...
