The SPOD is from NeXTSTep. I remember seeing it often when using the old magnesium cube.

Another Democrat blaming bush for Democratic shortcomings!
God damn, grow some adult pants and take responsibility for your decisions.
"If it ever becomes the default on consumer phones, for liability reasons or for whatever, the first thing people will learn is how to disable it so they can save battery power."
You mean consumer phones like the iPhone?
I work in an office where you can work at home. It's much, much better to work in the office. There's a lot of cross-talk, which makes our product(s) better.
That said, WFH is good when you need to get stuff done that's task-specific.
As a blanket policy WFH can work, but if everyone works from home then you have strong online collaboration tools. For a place the size of Yahoo WFH across the board is a "I don't feel like working" policy.
Yahoo was stagnating for years, so it's unclear what these people who were WFH were actually doing. If they were kicking out killer shit than the policy would be justifiable - but they weren't.
Actually, I've done all that. It's really not that hard to estimate, unless you don't pay attention to how long it takes to do stuff. It's not like you're trying to figure out how to fuse atoms, and have to build the manhattan project from scratch.
Writing something new is more difficult, but when you break it down into chunks it becomes easier. You do have to have a good understanding of how you work.
Just like anything, it takes practice. If you have enough people estimating you can bayes the answers, sort of.
Part of being a software professional is understanding how long it takes for you to do things
If you don't know how, go read a book. It's not hard. The money that's used to pay you depends on your estimate being somewhat correct.
Imagine how upset you would be if you asked for your paycheck, and payroll said "we're not sure when we're going to pay you, but it should be sometime soon."
"Your stuff is a f*cked up as Windows, so we might as well use Windows."
One good thing about a startup daemon that controls everything is it's much easier to compromise than a hodgepodge of manually configured and custom tailored systems. With systemd it's target once, compromise everywhere.
I'm not exactly sure what the scientists are recommending. Is "reducing carbon emissions" a code word for "killing everyone who isn't in a Western country?"
Vertical markets have severe problems with unauthorized software use (ie: piracy). This will make cracking that software much more difficult.
"Cleanup resources using destructors"
Good luck with that.
It's a bit heavyweight, but SmartThings has a panic button and via an IFTT integration can SMS you when it's pushed.
For most stack machines recursion is bad because the stack cannot grow without bounds and you have no idea where that boundary is. That's the practical problem with recursion.
iframes good, apps bad. Because integration between iframes is easier than integration between apps...right?
Other media organizations are afraid to post the video because "people might get the wrong idea."
Basically, they are afraid that people will start going all anti-Muslim. Well hello, most Americans should be pretty familiar now with the "all terrorists are Muslims, but not all Muslims are terrorists" idea.
Videos like this will show people exactly who is on the other side. This isn't a fake propaganda video, this is what ISIS/ISIL wants people to see. I suppose it doesn't fit into the worldview of the left-leaning media, who believe that diplomacy, talk, and hugs will cure any conflict, and that conflicts are due to misunderstandings between rational people.
It should be pretty clear that burning someone alive in a cage wasn't a misunderstanding.
When faced with this pretty brutal challenge to their worldview, the left basically says "screw it" and ignores it. It doesn't fit the narrative.
For God's sake, stop researching for a while and begin to think!
