What argument? I saw a price on the site and I commented on it. I'm not arguing anything. I could turn it around and ask why you are shilling for them? It is technology that isn't ready for prime time yet and is overpriced, even at $150. That is still way more than I am willing to pay for the limited functionality it offers. Get over it and move on. I'm not saying what *you* should spend your money on, so stop crying and being all butthurt about it and move on.
Where did I get it? From their website, but you'd know that if you'd looked. I understand the use for a smart watch. There really isn't one yet.
Very good points, especially the part about autodidacts. That one hits home since I am self educated. I've held jobs that 'require' an MBA/MIS degree, CS degrees, etc. In private industry (I work for a small IT security firm currently) I can easily make six figures in jobs that 'require' a degree. The government can shove it as far as I'm concerned.
Whats pebble?
It's a smartwatch, and a woefully underpowered one at that.
For $250 I'll pass.
Very true. I made a lot more during my management years. Now I barely top the low six figure mark. That being said I'm very happy with my job right now, and between my wife and I we have a very good income and standard of living. There is far more to life than just making the maximum amount of money you can.
I feel sorry for those using cable and the shared pipe it implies.
I LOL'd, don't worry. I would have modded your original retort as Funny were it not for obvious reasons (having already posted in the thread).
Oh please...stop with the FUD. I've yet to see any evidence of throttling. Now it could be because I have FIOS Quantum and an over 80 Mbps connection, but like I said I have no issues. Also, I work in IT security as a consultant, not for the FCC so you can stop with the insults
No thanks, but I'll go to your funeral if you want to volunteer to do so.
Nobody is stopping you from watching videos on Youtube at a lower framerate.
I have Verizon FIOS and I haven't had a single problem with Youtube, or Netflix for that matter.
Seriously. While I've done small C/C++ programs with just a text editor, and IDE is virtually a must for any sort of medium to large sized project.
Ultimately the genome is what really matters. That's not to say we shouldn't try to be better to our environment here on our home planet, but in terms of the very long term it's the genome that matters the most.
When you make an extraordinary claim the onus is on you to offer proof. All evidence we have to date suggests that C is a constant and has not changed. Therefor, if you assert that it does change it's on you to prove your claim, not for others to disprove it.
