This is just a journalistic tactic, though. Start with a ridiculous premise to get people reading, then break out what's really happening : poor use of statistics in science. What was really the point of implying that truth can change?
What is the point of answering a question and then asking the question?
State machines in embedded processors? I've actually had to use GOTO recently just for this one thing so that program would fit in memory, using functions would be too wasteful.
In java you actually don't need getters and setters. If only thing your setter is doing is setting a variable, why do you need it, just set a variable yourself. In ObjC you HAVE to set a variable through setter, because variables are not available from outside of object. On the other hand if your setter is doing something besides setting a variable, like refreshing screen or mangling some data, in objc you have to write the setter yourself anyway.
Advanced solid fuels may not burn good at standard pressure, but burn at working pressure. So when your engine has only one small nozzle, pressure builds up and engine works. When you open additional ports in engine bottom, pressure drops and fuel stops burning.
Yeah, so you need much energy to make it into steam and then you have to remove much of energy from leftover steam which gives you large cooling towers.
the act of overthrowing an entire government often leads to far more death and misery than was present under the existing system.
Not that I disagree with your point, but I must point out a fallacy: by this logic, you'd choose life as a slave instead of fighting for your freedom.
What makes you think the revolutionaries will give you freedom when the revolution is over? It just might mean they'll be your new slave master or worse they could give you death.

In addition, when customers show up at a physical place of business to discover a sit-in preventing them from receiving service, they get a clear and immediate understanding of why - thus a message is sent to them as well as to the business they're supporting. They may even learn of practices that weren't aware of, and change their own behavior appropriately. But what do mastercard.com customers find? A web site that doesn't response. There's no message they can receive - they'll just come back later, when the site is back online.
Yes, but it still gives a message to MC that many people just don't like their actions. This is about inconveniencing the company. Do you think some angry posts on forums would do more? Physical protests on streets would also slightly inconvenience the company, but protesters would be probably dispersed by police. DDoS'ing inconveniences MC and is much erm... convenient to pull off.
All hardware vendors need to do is give a kernel dev specs and a driver which will be indefinitely supported is created.
Yeah, driver for my Asus WL-167g wifi was created and worked, but now I can't compile it anymore, because someone thought that net_device struct is no longer needed (starting from kernel 2.6.31). Driver is still open source, but I'm not good enough at driver programming so I can't use this with newest kernels. Now imagine normal user, which buys a card which has "Compatible with linux" on a box but when he tries to compile the driver he is greeted with errors. Yes, I found what happened on some obscure forum, but I had others means of connecting than this card.
1. Little triangles that hide blocks of code unless you explicitly open and investigate them.
Netbeans. (view > code folds > collapse all)
2. Dynamic error detection. Give me a little underline when I write out a variable that hasn't been defined yet. Give a soft red background to lines of code that wouldn't compile. That sort of thing.
Netbeans.
3. While we're at-it, "warning" colors. When "=" is used in a conditional, for example, that's an unusual situation that should be underlined in Yellow.
Netbeans, but not background, it gives you little yellow icons on left side of code and yellow lines near scrollbar (to track errors in whole document).
4. Hard auto-indent. It may be two spaces in the source code, but accidentally copying the indentation, and putting it in the wrong places, etc, should just be taken care of. That shouldn't even be an issue any more.
Netbeans. (ctrl+shift+v - paste formatted).
5. Code-hint hover. When you hover over a function name, bring up a window with the first few lines of that function. Maybe open it in a "related code" pane?
Netbeans. If you use comments before functions, it will show those.
6. Right-click to jump to anything. Right-click a variable to jump to the declaration, or goto other places it is used. Right-click a class name to bring up that class definition.
Netbeans. But with ctrl+click.
7. Start typing out a function, and get a menu of variable-specific functions that can be called. Flash actually does this surprisingly well, or did before CS5.
Netbeans. Also flash did this surprisingly bad comparing to netbeans.
Another nice feature: ctrl+shift+arrow down - copies current line or selection and inserts it lower (+arrow up - inserts it above). It's a surpirisingly good idea, one I miss in many other editors.
They suck at every speed. It's how they work, by sucking air. They didn't made comeback, because small turbines are not that efficient and it's hard to make generators which spin at 60k RPM. If you want to hook slower generator, you need to use gearbox which lowers efficiency. Turbines also break more often and are built from more exotic materials than piston engines because they need to withstand high temperatures and high RPM's
My boss says I should rest a little more and get more life outside work (so that when I work, I am more productive). But YMMV. Maybe you should change work?

This way no-texting-while-driving app becomes self-control prosthesis. Just like post-it's are memory prostheses.

It's not that bad, learning german (attempted by me as my third language) was harder.
So why are they named debuggers, not reverseengineers?

Actually why do they have to use water? Wouldn't some liquid with lower boiling point be better?

I don't know how is it supposed to be better...
Yeah, all protesters should be caught and sentenced some light prison.~
In other countries this freedom of speech was just not so thoroughly tested as in USA.
Try this one: http://www.mastercard.com/us/company/en/ourcompany/officers.html it has pictures of board of directors.

In Europe it's perfectly legal. In many shops with mobile phones they will unlock it for you (of course not in carrier's shops ;) )

Moral: Constant ABI changes are just frustrating.

The funny thing is Jobs says "Think different" and then he says "There is only one phone, different phones are bad".

One and one make one. Simple boolean logic.
Yeah, but what if they are all yellow? Also, The bomb game
Does it react to bible as if it was real?
You are not suspected, but you may want to check your car ;)
