I agree - there is no need to split Linux, the kernel itself is what you make it to be from the modules you select to suit your platform. There are also distros out there for almost any conceivable platform.
And isn't all this a good example of how Darwinism works? The survivors have proven that they can beat the disease and their genes will be more likely to spread causing the next outbreak of this strain in the future to be less serious.
Cruel - yes, but nature is cruel and doesn't have favorites.
Well - if FAA goes after those doing tornado research they are essentially just getting bad publicity. It seems to me that they essentially just try to shoot down every operation that is competing with the paperwork path of the FAA.
Better set up a new set of rules instead, since as long as you operate it for other than private use but use it in a way that doesn't invade privacy or on your own property then I don't see a problem with using a drone (which is a RC model anyway.)
As of this February, the Army had spent $725.7 million on the system, which is ultimately expected to cost about $4.3 billion. The problem, according to the IG, is that the Army has failed to comply with a variety of federal laws that require agencies to standardize reporting and prepare auditable financial statements. “This occurred because DOD and Army management did not have adequate controls, including procedures and annual reviews, in place to ensure GCSS-Army compliance with Treasury and DOD guidance,” the IG report concludes.
Most likely a software bug. The amount of stupid bugs that exist in software due to pressed time constraints and attempt to save money is sometimes baffling.
Anyone coding in Regular Expressions knows that the whole language is extremely compact and is only built upon the understanding of strange features.
If any code is "Write Only" that must be the top contender.
Just look at some of the more successful companies - many of them have had a "skunk works" department where they could do the research and innovations in a less restricted area.
And a lot of creative people are also less socially competent, which means that they have a harder time to get funding.
Some degrees contains a lot of theory around algorithms but they miss the point of how do you code in a good way - produce code that's easy to maintain.
The bulk of the code written is essentially just bread and butter, check this, check that, merge strings, store data, retrieve data. Few have to concern themselves with indexing algorithms, best function to seek data - it's in the database API.
The "How to write quality code" chapter seems to have been lost (if it ever did exist) for many that are coming out fresh on the job market.
Employing someone with a degree in Computer Science can even mean that you employ a code jockey that re-invents functionality that already exists in a library - with the risk of new interesting bugs introduced.
Scientists will study your brain to learn more about your distant cousin, Man.
