When is it better to choose the well-tested, mature LAMP over this upstart collection of JavaScript-centric technologies?

How is this at all what Wikileaks is supposed to be for? At this point it seems more like crass voyeurism than any type of serious attempt to shine a light on corporate misconduct. Sure, Apple asking Sony for 4k content is interesting from a business perspective, but wrong-doing that needed to be exposed it is not.
are you kidding me?! despite their evil intentions being revealed ahead of time, the still went on and released Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2. i can accept the possibility that the first movie was a misstep but making a sequel is just a crime against humanity!
What's wrong with having placebos? Placebos work.
yeah, they worked great for Steve Jobs, as i recall.
and some asteroids are made if baking soda!
Yep, you go ahead and laugh because you're too lazy to read the contestor's wikipedia link
i laugh because you are so fucking stupid it's just amazing.
who needs enemies when we have swat teams to "protect us" from shoplifters by destroying our homes. http://www.wnd.com/2015/06/swa...

"we could not buy, for any price, a data-center network that would meet the requirements of our distributed systems,"
bullshit. if you told a company that specialized in making toothpicks that you would give them a trillion dollars to build a datacenter with XYZ, they would make it happen. did you offer someone a trillion dollars?
"The cyberattack and cyber security is an issue that we take very seriously,"
"We are increasing our resources and polices to be better equipped to face cyberattacks, whether they are coming from hackers from a group, potentially, that has said they did it today, [or] state-sponsored or terrorist entities."
if they took "cyber security" very seriously, they wouldn't need to increase their resources and they wouldn't have been hacked.

There are patent issues with every technology.
there are no patents on C++ and even if there were they would have expired by now.
By this time (w/ MS deliberately contributing to Mono no less) estoppel should quash any patent claims.
it's a good thing proving that in court is inexpensive and that they have a moral integrity to not use their vast army of lawyers to just bleed you until you cannot afford to defend yourself.
oh wait.
1) We haven't sued people for using it yet!
2) it's cross-platform (as long as you only use certain parts)
3) we have a single IDE!
4) you can write games with it... as long as it's a Microsoft console.
5) it's incomplete and buggy but were working on that!
sounds just great but why not use C++ and Qt instead?
We'll see if CV Dazzle becomes fashionable.
even if it did become fashionable, the software would be adapted to deal with such anomalies if it hasn't been already.
so a fun anecdote i heard from a friend who works in the biometrics field is that in testing facial recognition software that would track people on a college campus, they found a strange anomaly that there was one person that had been spotted hundreds of times in multiple locations at the same time. after reviewing the footage he realized that the cameras were actually finding bob marley's face on t-shirts.
