Good Heavans, man, are you trying to make us all deaf with the sound of that whoosh???

You could have an account with Santander but simply fail to install their app on your phone or tablet.

I don't think "fail" means what you think it means. I would call not installing their app a "success".

"PHP has matured into a scripting language that is especially suited to solve the Web problem."

This almost makes me wish Dice would go back to starting its flame-wars with stories on gender inequality.

So CS classes are critical for our future, while at the same time H1B's are replacing Americans (Disney) and the latest leak of TISA shows they may be simplifying the ability to bring in foreign workers.

You seem to have misunderstood. s/our future/stockholder returns/

Today is Friday! Thanks, Dice!

I thought Dice saved the flame-baiting articles for Fridays.

Go Fuck. Yourselves.

From recent revelations, it's more likely the governments are looking for easier ways to break into citizens' computers.

You wouldn't steal a car, would you?

Choosing your own screensaver is not a victimless crime.

Google Play placed ads at the beginning of Archer episodes. It pissed by off considerably. I pay good money to NOT see commercials. Being force-fed ads when I paid for something (a movie ticket, a Google Play video, etc.) is about the surest way to get me to stop paying you money.

Seriously, fuck you Google. And if you do this, fuck you Netflix too.

Then we can expect them to issue a legally binding promise to transfer the patent rights to the Patent Commons, yes?

A team is also a single entity. Does its productivity drop once they realize that, like how cartoon characters only fall once they've noticed they're in mid-air?

Or perhaps the TPP people don't want the SCOTUS ruling on this, because it could provide a constitutional basis for challenging the TPP.

Nah, nevermind. That couldn't be the motivation of The Most Transparent Administration in History.

I've got a PhD in CS, and I grew up with the U.S. education system of the 1970's and 80's. I had playground time, and little formalized national testing. I'll bet few of the Turing award winners or ACM Fellows were educated in the manner advocated by today's politicians and Plutocrats.

If they're so eager to make good computer scientists, one might ask if they're willing to reproduce the educational environments of those luminaries.

I did all of my phd work on an m6500 years ago, and thanks to having bought an extended fix-everything-on-site-no-matter-what warranty, it's still going strong.

I occasionally have the budget to buy a modern version of that laptop, but Dell continues to disappoint by offering only a 16:9 screen. Not sure why they keep on doing that; for coding I'd much rather have a taller screen, especially for that much money.

My only other beef is with the video cards. I really don't care about 3D. I don't want to spend the heat, battery life, or money on a fancy OpenGL card, especially since their Linux drivers often suck (I'm especially looking at you, AMD). So I'd be extra happy if they'd offer a version of the m6x00 that just used Intel's graphics. They're plenty good for what I want these days.
