It must be nice to be able to say views you don't agree with are 'crimes against humanity'. I wish my conscious didn't make me attempt to be intellectually honest.
> Because you would voluntarily hand over your money to repave the roads or build bridges, right?
(Going to ignore the idea that the government must build the roads) But yeah, why wouldn't i? I don't have a problem paying for food or drink. Or my entertainment. Or my car. Not sure why you think roads would be different. In fact, I'm rather fond of tolling(some privacy concerns though). I travel on a major freeway twice a day. Why shoulnd't I pay more than someone who uses that freeway once a month?
> All the things you take for granted which are delivered by the government
Most all the things i REALLY take for granted are provided by capitalism.
Driving is the most dangerous thing we do in our daily lives. Also probably biggest direct interaction with government laws and infrastructure. It's not a coincidence.
I've had 5 separate jobs over 11 years. Of those, only 1 did not have a day to day developer, who was over 50. This sort of statement reminds me of slashdot saying, before my career even started, that there were going to be no jobs left, because everyone was outsourcing. Will my job be different in 10 years? quote possibly. But it's not much different from what it was 10 years ago. I'm not worried.
I think that's part of the point of the show. That you don't need to have a fancy degree and spend years in college to think critically and figure something out.

OK then, what are the current alternatives?
where is good old clevernickname.
Doesn't matter. You have virtually no rights at the border.

You guys should hire Jon Katz.
I'm still here as well. But no where near as often as I was before the late 0xs.
I imagine they have quiet hours or whatever. In my dorm it was like 8pm - 8am. And since they already have an RA type person..
yeah, but i will. Why? because it's fun. And I don't have to break out an older system and hook it up, and try to get it working.
Quasi scientific
Sure, but they weren't exactly out there to write scientific journals.
buffoons
nah.
She also had zero scientific background

I'm not sure what you're going on about.
I've heard this said for decades about Linux. And .. I think it's finally, really true. Linux has won in so many ways, it's amazing.
Java the language/platform may suck. Just, it sucks less when compared to other solutions.
I really doubt cheating is a new phenomenon. I'm sure many so-called greats of all sorts, were cheaters.
something about if you do nothing wrong you have nothing to fear.
can thank shitty ass seattle laws.
as i understand it, it is very limited in terms of service area.
you're a special little star for sure.
I'm sure your boss pats u on the head and tells you you're a rockstar and top .0000001% and all that shit lol.
It's true, really.
actually DOES result in significantly less gun violence.
That is true.
But it doens't result in less violent crime. So you're just as likely to be murdered.
Also didn't impact suicide rates at all.
So they changed the tools and circumstances around crimes, not the actual crimes. So they lost freedom and gained no security.
glibc isn't general programming? ok then.
really nothing rare about it? maybe in your line of work. But since we're just talking general programming here, it's quite rare.
It may, but it's pretty rare that it's worth it and it also increases the cost of maintaining. Though a function in glibc, might be an exception.
This is /.
I would hope such a disclaimer is just a waste of time...
