This is a top-of-the-line I7. It's for high-end workstations, not for ANY of "schools, governments, integrated devices, laptops, tablets, low cost devices, small size devices, and 95% of the general purpose PCs on the market". The kind of machines it's meant for will, by definition, have separate video cards.

CPU/GPU integration is for farmers, to paraphrase Seymour Cray.

Now you're REALLY in trouble:

It's Turtles® all the way down.

Their R&D engineers left when HP decided to stop making PA-RISC and Alpha.

Where's the kaboom?? There's supposed to be an earth-shattering kaboom!

It's really irritating when you read these articles where the authors treat hypothetical particles and real particles interchangeably, worse when you get tables full of them intermixed.

We're just gonna call that "justifiable homicide". Besides, it killed all the dinosaurs. So we'll scorel it a "win/win".

Yeah, because Bill Gates is THE go-to guy for opinions on software quality.

Or we could maybe use 1/3 of the DOD's paper-clip budget.

Heh. My future had mile-high skyscrapers, colonies on the moon, atomic powered airplanes, fusion power too cheap to meter, and FLYING CARS, goddamit, FLYING FUCKING CARS!

Really? Perhaps you didn't know it, but dwarf planets make a "whoosh"ing sound.

I knew you were going to say that.

Sure, I'd let my kids play with used syringes and loaded guns, but Perl?? Whaddya think I am, a bad parent?

Perl code can be treacherously obfuscated, but that's part of the fun. As long as good code is well documented, there is no harm.

To quote something I read somewhere:

You have obviously never coded in any language, let alone Perl. Comments like these are usually from people with zero real life experience.

How about this one:

We say in Perl that it's "strangely consistent".

Because, god knows, if anything in Perl is consistent, it's strange.


Then there's the use of "Larry Wall" and "language designer" in the same sentence...
