No. The real problem is that it is not backwards-compatible with Perl 5, making its rate of adoption guaranteed to be almost zero.

Well it's already solved in places with competent regulators, so don't try pretending it isn't.

Get back to me when we don't have years and tons of nuclear waste just lying around in conditions not in fact all that different from Fukushima.

What, and that nuclear power's fault and not the fault of incompetent lawmakers and intransigent greenies?

No, time has a certain kind of intercourse with you.

its turns out that making modest cuts in energy consumption isn't that painful, saves some money, and may have longer term benefits

There are 2 main problems.

First, if we're going to continue to increase in technology and especially if we're going to go for electric cars, we're going to need to use a LOT MORE electricity than we do now. Filling people's heads with the idea that we can use less energy as part of the solution is feeding them bullshit.

Second, and this is from my perspective, any energy generated by solar or wind is energy not generated by nuclear. As I see nuclear as the only viable option for generating the amount of baseload we're going to need for the likes of electric cars, that fills people's heads with the idea that we don't need nuclear, which is also problematic.

Because most of the risk is due to human factors, which have not been eliminated

No, it's really not. It's mostly technical, and we can build integral fast reactors now with passive cooling where a meltdown, or effective sabotage, is virtually impossible. You should actually open your eyes to this evidence.

Why do we need to cover the risk of Fukushima-style accidents when we're NOT BUILDING 50-YEAR-OLD NUCLEAR PLANTS??

I'd change browsers if there was something to change to

There's Seamonkey, and there's Pale Moon. Make the effort to switch. Vote with your feet; it's the only possible way to force Firefox to actually start listening to users.

But the employee who found her wallet missing from her purse was certainly happy for the camera.

Women have wallets inside their purses??

Your name wouldn't happen to be BOFH, would it?

Mozilla doesn't build hardware. We make software

Really? I thought YOU fucked up user interfaces.

How many times, though, so people complain about a Youtubs vid or a BBC article having comments disabled? I like the idea of a "fuck you, we're discussing this anyway" service.

If I knew I was gonna get marked down 30% for not being a minority, I'd just say I was gay. Discrimination of any kind, yes even "positive", is fucking retarded. I really hate it.

Huh? 10% faster is 1000 times faster? How do those mathematics work?

So how about that? A programming language that'll download and store a program for later use just in case the network connection isn't stable or available. Sounds good to me. Having more than one way to get a program is a great thing to do.

The additional consideration here is that it needs to be monopolizable and monetizable by Google.
