How about that?

Slow clap. I wish I had mod points.
Do you know where Vladivostok is? Russia not need Korea to ship gas.
You are making way too much sense. Are you lost?
Thanks for that info. I haven't had time to look.
I worked on SNMP (et al) and it was never smooth. Nobody paid any attention until v1 was out and amazingly got traction. v2 died many deaths until it was simply declared done. SNMP was/is way more than just plain vanilla MIB (which almost nobody uses), there is the "P" (for protocol) an OID encoding scheme, etc.
If you were going to create SNMP today, it would be a dedicated protocol w/OID, BER and all of that. It would be HTTP and XML (or JSON).
I am not sure there needs to be a lot of "new" protocols these days. HTTP won. Use it and move on.
Self respect. How about you?
Nobody decides to buy a BB solely based upon a hardware keyboard.
Probably could have stopped w/"nobody decides to buy a BB"
I call BS, I work on new products and I can leave any time.
Anybody who thinks this kind of collusion is innocent is (IMO) crazy. Ask your managers if they will work for less money?
Seriously, are you the same people who believe your career is over at 35 years old? Then you better make bank now. And if you don't believe it, then make bank anyway.
No there isn't. If you really wanted a fresh kernel you would have plenty of people to choose from. Same for hard core numerics. Lots of smart people want to do that work, but sadly there isn't much of it to go around. Many people work quite cheap for those jobs (at least for awhile).
I did VMS internals back in the day. Hard core, big fun. When VAX work dried up, life was quite uncomfortable. I don't work on internals any longer because I won't hitch my career to a specific hardware platform again.
Put another way, I have never seen shortage and at times I have been part of the glut.
Seriously. Hardware these days is awesome and cheap. Any language you could want is freely available. Tools are mighty. The entry barriers to CompSci research have never been lower. If you are truly gifted, then by all means hack away.
Look at AI (a broad topic, but please keep reading). I was at a conference where they said over half the published research is an AI topic and it has been this way for decades. What is the result of all this brainpower? Clearly the research institutions are not bringing the game. I believe someone working in their bedroom has as much chance of discovering a breakthrough as a funded researcher.
Perhaps grant committees should give way to something like kick starter...
The Android plugin for gradle is awful: slow to market and still incomplete.
I don't give a hoot that gradle uses groovy or has a JSON syntax. I want stuff that works, and this isn't it.
OTOH, I have managed to bill lots of hours writing gradle tasks, etc to patch up this broken POS for customers who read too many magazine articles. So it isn't all bad.
The same reason all the IntelliJ users who are not doing Android development have to chime in.
