When writing code, your audience is not the compiler.
If you're primary audience is not the compiler why are you writing code at all? If the compiler isn't your primary audience, just tell another person what you want done...
So this story means new people are hearing about Starbucks for the first time?
Not necessarily for the first time. I wasn't thinking at all about coffee, but now there's an article about a big coffee vendor, so it comes to mind. Maybe I'll stop in on my way home, since I walk past several... (but who am I kidding, they're always crowded and I've never ordered coffee on my own before, so I'm not sure I know how to do that without making a fool of myself...)
The shooter will spend the rest of his life in jail
Where on movie night it'll be unlikely any other inmates will have cell phones they can use to text and disturb him.
In the US, that's the law regarding H1-B workers as well, but it's not enforced.
No kidding... As an American, when I worked for a U.S. company a decade ago, the Indians brought over on H1-B visas were paid quite a bit more than I was for doing the same job.
On the flip side, though, I guess I had better job security (being competent and underpaid...)
As an American who worked in the Indian office of a Finnish company, the same applies, we were way cheaper than our Finnish counterparts...
All I can say is : Cool!
Damn! That's just cold, man...

Carved in stone seems to suggest a commitment.
How 'bout C89 support?
For that matter, how about C64 support? And small enough to fit on floppy disks...
I'm thinking of buying an ultra-high def TV so I can hook up my old Atari 2600. Hopefully it'll look sharp.
He did so much for Apple, after all!
Yeah, but can he handle changing the world, or just sugar water sales?
that all rules are silly.
Who believes that all rules are silly? It's only the rules people don't like that are silly. The ones that affect others are great.
Instead of Siskel & Ebert maybe we need more of a Mystery Science Theater 3000 for software...
I'm never ever going to run faster than Usain Bolt no matter how hard I train
You're not training right. You need to practice whacking fast runners in the knees with a baseball bat.
he or she would be canned
What would they label the can?
Well, that's the Olympic motto, "Faster, Higher, Stronger" so I'm sure a bit of a radiation boost can help.
