How the frack is this a blow to Microsoft? I thought he switched from Linux to MacOS (and by extension Mac hardware). I guess that's why he was amazed by having a laptop that had a working sleep/wake and WiFi. Many Linux distros are still terrible to this day on many laptops.
These inbred, idealistic, heretical politicians do not understand the difference between truth and faith. You do not see the Roman Catholic Church (or many other organized religious organizations) have a problem with teaching science as a science and religion as a religion. The schools of higher learning, run by these religious organizations, openly teach the concepts of evolution as a science without interference. So, why can't the Missouri legislators get their act together and leave science to the scientists and religion to the clergy? So much for separation of church and state. Freedom of religion includes freedom from religion (after all, every set contains the null set). State mandated hokum being posited as science is an abuse of faith and science.
The Chinese new year is NOT a state holiday in Japan. There are many calendars used around the world. How many official state new year's holidays are needed? What about the Indian, Jewish, old Russian, Kurdish, or the many other New Year's holidays around the world? A country only needs one.
Not enough Frenchies in San Francisco. I do hear that it is a holiday in France there. After all, they have millions of Frenchies there. They seem to act like they run the place,
Every civilized person shouldn't venture more than 4 feet away from an outlet. Swapping batteries is so bohemian. This isn't some hippy love-in we're talking about.
Shibani Joshi is not an engineer, a scientist, or even technically trained. She's a dumb-ass reporter that works for the Fox Business Network. So, why should we care what she says?

Whatever they actually do, I guess the will actually be doing it in their office.

Depending on how one defines "robot", this will be extremely unlikely.
Ok, now I understand. Completely missed that one!
It will just end in tears.
At some point, someone needs to interact with the system, and the system needs to interact with the devices it controls. So, in theory, these systems cannot be completely isolated.
Also, consider that if these systems were isolated with a pure vacuum, it may make the universe fly apart!

Do you think Nancy Reagan would know that difference?
Well, somebody isn't a The IT Crowd fan.
That will teach them for accessing Facebook with government computers.
It doesn't matter as it's further than 100 meters away.
Just say NO to Java.
What kind of car only gets 210 miles to a tank?
Scheduling failure is such a deeply rooted problem in software engineering.
Just read The Mythical Man-Month.

One would hope that Apple fixes them, but one seems to appear at least once every year.

Now that Apple was forced to license the Swiss Railway clock design (a la iOS 6), maybe their license extends to future products like iWatches?
Considering Apple's lack of success with handling alarms, new years, and DST switches, would anyone really want a watch from Apple?
After all, what does the data say? Higher temperatures, less Antarctic ozone? Looks like a correlation, and therefore....
I believe that, in China, both new years are official state holidays.

It's happened before. Ever hear of the Pancho Villa Expedition?
It IS a smear campaign. Tech Crunch and Read Write are trying to smear Microsoft for pointing out the truth.
