Comment Re:Land of the free (Score 2) 580

You voided your own argument by 1) typing it on a computer and 2) admitting you were watching a movie. Both appliances get stolen all the time. Your last argument is garbage. They'll break into a house to rummage and *see* if you have things, even personal things. Short of it - I don't believe you AC.

I'm sure you understand yet avoid, that the *simplest* solution to all of this is **not to steal**. In other words, the onus of the situation is squarely on the perpetrator.

Instead, you advocate a laid-back attitude of being a willing victim. Right up until that thief breaking in decides that causing you or yours bodily harm is a fun thing to do, which they have certainly been known to do. Then, you'll scream about lack of state protection, assuming you are left capable.

Anyone thinking they have the right to decide that the time I've spent building my life is up for grabs had better expect the exact same disdain for theirs.

the strengths of traditional compiled languages....zero-overhead Java platform integration

I never thought I'd hear someone say that Java integration is a traditional strength of compiled languages...

...and you didn't. The text you quoted neither says nor implies that that's a traditional strength. (In the text you quoted, the word traditional is used as an adjective modifying "languages".)
