Just because hunter-gatherers may not have slept much, that doesn't necessarily mean it's "good for you". They also got a lot of snake bites. Does that mean snake bites are good for you?
"Friday, New Horizons, hurtling deep into the Kuiper belt at the edge of the solar system, returned a fresh image of..."
It appears to be talking about the future, not the present. It would be similar to "headed deep into". I bet the editor saw something like that and juiced "headed" into "hurtling".
However, "hurtle" sometimes implies "uncontrolled", which I'm sure NASA would take umbrage with.
"They largely pertained to personnel matters and don't appear to deal with highly classified material, State Department officials said, but their existence challenges Clinton's claim that she has handed over the entirety of her work emails from the account."
Anyhow, let's wait for the investigation to finish.
What's an existing language that can and does (practically) take advantage of the tricks you mention? And if so, how come it's not replacing C in any noteworthy quantity for hardware-centric uses?
As revenge and/or a bargaining chip for the Java lawsuits, Google could have bought PostgreSql stewardship and fleshed out the rough spots to make it more competitive and compatible with Oracle. Not too late.
over the last couple of days, the situation seems to have become a little more aggressive
I bet in a management meeting, the top boss screams out: "I want X new installs by Y, or you are outta here! I don't care how you do it, just get it done!"
The operative phrase is "I don't care how to do it".
That's true of much of history. Metallurgy was advanced largely in the process of making weapons; as were rockets, airplanes, (early) electronic computers, compilers, etc.
War and porn are the two pillars of R&D, early adopters, and funding. Technology depends on wankers or things that work/look like wankers.
The resources and vast testing for the V2 rocket was incredible for the time. Rockets went from toys to space-capable in about 5 years.
I'd like to ask what mistakes or flaws caused the "overload" problem a week before the main encounter. I would think a simulator (mirror) would catch it. It seems either they didn't use a simulator, or the simulator somehow got out of sync with the real probe. I suppose fake data may take up a different amount of storage space than the real probe, and wonder if that was the cause for the difference.
Also, I wonder about the emotions of the people involved when the probe locked up 1 week from The Big Game.
My first run-in with online privacy happened in the late 1990's when a persistent troll found personal info on me and broadcast it all over discussion boards in an attempt to embarrass me into silence.
I realized after the "breach" it's easy to leave inadvertent clues. Somebody with enough patience and persistence can put these clues together to dig around in search engines for personal info and your online trail.
And there are plenty of freaks out there who make the Interwebs their sadism engine. It's their only "power" in life.
I'm much more careful about "crossing topics" now. For example, if I'm on a board about pets, I don't talk about IT and vice versa. But, that's probably still not enough as one tends have certain phrasing patterns that leave sufficient clues for "statistical linking". Most trolls probably don't go that far or are not smart enough, but you never know. They may have a script-buddy to barter for zombie PC time or something.
Why do you say that? I explained why that may not always be the case. Sec. of State shouldn't be the "secrecy expert" per related arcane rules, unless it's an obvious case. Do you expert her to also certify the building plumbing?

"He lost too many tiles"
I stand corrected. Wrong probe. Thanks.
Is this what you are referring to?

Days? I heard it will take longer than a year to get all the data from the encounter. Although, they prioritize it.

Evidence please
You skipped a key detail:

What SPECIFICALLY was her alleged lie?
It think it's safe to say that C as a language is optimized for speed, size, and hardware issues instead of software engineering issues.

"That's no moon, it's Oracle owning your moon."
IBM hardware was indeed reliable. However, from a software developer's perspective, it was known to have awkward tools. JCL alone drove some insane.
That some info is by default considered "classified" may be true. But we don't know if that kind of stuff is what caught the FBI's attention.
It believe it's fair to let the investigation process play out.
That phrase has also been used for heyday IBM and Microsoft. But both sucked.
Sometimes you have to choose between money and sanity.

Since they were using commercial services as comparisons, I wonder why they didn't make reference to Comcast:
