Says who? The rate of scientific progress has slowed significantly over the last few decades. Almost everything you see is WWII/cold war tech, refined.
That sounds like a very progressive income tax and steep property/wealth/inheritance taxes, something those evil "socialist" European countries have been doing for a long time but which was rolled back due to the neolib trend over the last few decades.
Yup. There are so many different styles in C++ that they amount to different dialects or even different domain specific languages. Unless you understand the underpinnings you don't know what's going on so you just copypasta. That's why I really prefer C, but you have to know what you're doing.
That's where I am, given the other major trends like resource depletion, environmental degradation and a still exploding population. Right on schedule according to Limits to Growth.
How is an encrypted drive different from a failed drive, other than that if it's only encrypted you don't even have to buy a new one - just wipe it and restore your backup, maybe reinstall your OS first.
I was just in a meeting with Dell about their next generation. There's no demand for anything but VGA because all infrastructure is VGA based. There isn't even IPMI for anything but VGA.
How do you figure the singularity will happen with Moore's law coming to end, where the exponential growth has been bending into a S shaped curve for years, with 5% performance improvement per generation now?

I wonder why.
So, free and equal education and meals for all kids?

Yup, many big cores do that today. It's called speculative execution.
Save the environment, reduce carbon emissions, save water, reduce debt... unless it affects me financially.

And people don't take the money, they just look at it. Is that theft? Unauthorized access?

4. Collapse of civilization and population.

Do they have any?
How can it? They're offline or on a backup system, ideally offsite. Right?

I wish I had mod points. This paper summarizes all the hype and bad research in one big gish gallop.
I run KDE on Banana Pi and Raspberry Pi and it works fine. Just sayin'.
Porn always makes you feel better so there should be porn in everything. Problem solved.

The ones on the drawing board that nobody has built yet?
So the answer is no, right?
It's called monetization. Looks like Slashdot tries to become MSM, not news for nerds.
Higher cost than nuclear?

Can I have something like that on my phone to bring to the bar? Just hold it up to the ear of a hot woman.
My Outlook 2003 isn't affected, yay!
But more CS grads means lower salaries and more taxi (err, Uber) drivers. That's good, isn't it?
