I'm not sure if people who can't be bothered to tell the difference between an ad and a search results are smart enough to be relevant in the struggle against... wait what was this about again? Something that happened a 100 years ago and is irrelevant to pretty much everybody living today anyways?
Somebody actually thought Slashdot readers would fall for this? What has the world come to... maybe Beta has made everybody dumb.

I said "how many". Not "what kind". There aren't that many jobs developing vehicle control units. Maybe in 20 years when self-driving cars fully take off.

And how many jobs actually require you to get "close to the metal"? It's pretty few and far between in practice.
Besides, only bad programmers are reliant on the first language they learn. Good ones can pick up the best one for the job at hand fast. Are you stuck using the first language you learned? I learned the ropes using BASIC but I haven't touched it since. It really doesn't matter.
I wouldn't live in a place with inadequate bandwidth for a simple video stream.
I also wouldn't use a service that does not provide a library at least on par with The Pirate Bay.
For something that is after all, only data? Why would anybody want to wait for a day or two for a piece of plastic when they can access the data instantly online?
...and the government passes on the costs of maintaining the cash system on to the people. Via taxes. The truth is that nothing is free and if you get something you will have to pay for it one way or another.
That feel when my answer gets one upvote and Skeet's almost identical answer gets eleventy thousand just because he has a higher reputation to begin with.
That's the only thing I can think of every time something like this surfaces. Try holding your arm horizontally in the air for 15 minutes. Bet you get tired before you hit 5. And I use the computer for hours on end.
Not exactly big unless you only care about iOS/OS X. I don't see a future for Swift outside that niche.
How is it any less of a sport than, say, chasing a ball around on a field?
If this becomes popular somebody will make a cheat device that plugs into your Game:ref and simulates the mouse through it.
So that the clueless people still using it don't have to buy a new computer when the Internet disappears.
Ad blockers are not plain "JavaScript blockers" and they block plenty of ads that aren't inserted via JavaScript, so that's not a problem.

There's a difference. Learn to know it. And if you seriously can't tell the difference between a paid link and an actual search result, get AdBlock.
- every company ever, when announcing their new product
Can't they just mine some more?
Does anybody actually do that? Isn't the only reason that language isn't extinct the fact that you can do fancy OSX/iOS apps with it? C++ all the way.
Because nobody with bad intentions defies FAA guidelines.
This. The title of this article and the text in TFA sounds like a translation error. Tekstaus vs. texting - same origin, different meaning.

I love being able to order stuff from Germany without worrying about currency conversion rates.
I'm pretty sure this isn't limited to any particular country.
So get rid of mag stripes. You can't skim a smart card. At least not nearly as easily.

Anti-virus is not a solution to the real problem!? Whaat? How can this be?
