"When one looks inside of the home of people without their permisssion, it becomes permissible for them to gouge out his eye." (Muslim)

...but it will still be just an advertisement platform.
Google pulled YouTube off the Fire TV and Echo Show since Amazon stopped selling several Google products.
One day the whole concept of advertisement will be forbidden as transfats in food or ganja from the stores, that is as a vile violation of human health. In this case: mental health.
Endless repetition (hundreds of times) of the same utterly useless crap to the ears of the same person should be declared a crime.
I hope to live to that day when you can enjoy the site of the Flatiron building without flashy animated posters splattered over all corners of Times Square, so I can turn TV on and watch a full episode of Frasier in 20 minutes instead of one hour.
Try turning off ADP and NoScript on your Firefox for a day. It's like if you put your glasses on in They Live. Myriad of annoying visual and audio pests coming at your face with persistent of steppe locusts. Incessant barrage of useless repetitions.
It's your brain, people. Protect it at all costs, don't get it washed by Pepsi Cola concoctions.
Tv shows are entertainment, and that's what they should be: entertaining.
Nobody needs "realism". Some "realism" always present in the depiction even in the worst shows, but it's not the paramount component, it's just one of the things that could be sacrificed for the sake of overall entertainment.
Access to terminal was the major hurdle these days, very true. The queue books, the limits "one hour per session", people hanging over your shoulder, counting minutes till your turn, and, finally, the green glimmer on your screen.
I prefer scientifix method based. That would save a lot of budget by not funding "research" that claims that this and that happened millions of years ago without any glimpse of hope for verification or falsification.
If layman is in charge of assessing a professional he should invite independent professionals. Period
That's all there is to it. The "need" to explain something professional to a layman comes from the stupid idea of universal participation in decisions people have no idea about. The stupid bullshit "democracy".
Try to publish a paper disproving someone else's hypothesis. I have two of that kind - both were largely dismissed, despite one of them being in a prominent journal.

This means that desktops are going to be more expensive, doesn't it?
Are you sure people are aware of what was happening 50 years ago, unless they are if 70+ demographics?
That's complacency, adaptation and submisiveness.
How about this perk: wifi and guaranteed flight without dogs in the cabin?
Your economist argument sounds strange. Paying for the house supposed to be more, because you are eventually going to get a house.

Do not retire until you drop dead. Serioisly, there is no life outside job. You will be bored to death if you retire.
In 5-10 ten years Amazon will be nationalized.
Finally Ajit Shitpai did something good.
You don't want anything bad happenning to your mother's Internet, do you?
>about time we had more Trump-supporting scientists.
You mean white male scientists over 50? I wonder where we can find those....

And the reason is not: "because writers are stupid".
The reason is: "because watchers are stupid".
Watch all of them, all of them get _some_ aspects of geek life right. Accentuate the bloody positive.

"I should have done it earlier. It's so nice to crawl into the chair with the tablet/hardcopy and just go through it".
First paragraph.
"Hmm.... Is that true? Let me Google this up.... "
and we are done. I know, I have an attention span of the teenager.
Thanks for a valuable reminder comrade.

Let's wait until November 2018.

Noone ever goes after jaywalkers. Would you please stop with the drama?

Yes. Has been in the field for 30 years. Yes.
