Just another stupid thing that takes batteries or needs to be charged.

It's cute that you think that everything can be a service. Which must be predicated on a belief that you can always access the internet.

When I last checked a few years ago, one of the cons of using any of the HTML based app development systems was that effectively you bundle the complete source code of your app inside your app.

Has this changed in recent years?

It's not a head transplant .. it's a BODY transplant.

In this last week an anti-vaxxer group in Australia put out a post on their FB page likening forced vaccination to rape (penetration without consent). They even illustrated it with a photo of a guy standing over a women in a menacing pose and holding his hand over her mouth.

So at this point I have no clue what some of them are thinking, and wouldn't even know how to communicate with them. (Although this particular message was so off that even a lot of the anti-vaxxers who were members of that group were decrying how bad it was.)

But what is even scarier is that I saw on CNN yesterday that even ISIS is keeping up vaccinations in the territory that it controls.

There are even places that rent out commercial grade simulators to the public.

So does the "Eating too quickly" reminder. That one is called "choking on your food"

These "solutions" all seem to be moving away from the idea of being aware of yourself. A cheaper, and more beneficial solution would due to take up a program of meditation.

If you don't understand that 3, 4 or 5 is the right passing score then you should have studied harder *+&

You missed the third and most important reason in TFA

Early on I saw a guy with a cast on his leg using one at an airport, and thought it was a great use.

Now days all I see them used for are segway based city tours or "try a segway" sideshow events at the local state fair.

You can't control what other people say or do. But you can control how you react to it.

And labeling people who disagree with you as "hammerheads" is not a good reaction.

Those "Yammerheads" are your revenue source.

Is there any other language that has something comparable to LINQ?

There was a case in Australia* with an a gaming machine based on a horse race scenario. Someone started winning big on it, and when the investigation was done it was discovered that when the game was not actively being played, it displayed a "demonstration" game .. that turned out to be the next real game that would be played (or some such). So all you had to do was to wait until the demo came on, then then when it finished, bet on the horse that one the demo.

A perfect example of stupidity in the place of malice. So while your reasoning is potentially valid (and with a nod to Dennis Ritchie and his paper on trusting compilers), there is a broader set of reasoning to be against electronic gaming.
