That's a trap. The mobo comes with integrated intel, yes. But in most cases the end user also has a discrete card. You can guess which one is actually used.

She should probably visit a healthcare professional.

I'm just hoping they don't do this with 3/4 and 1 ton pickups and SUVs. I agree with you, I need a pickup to work and haul. Sure, Al can be used in some places to lighten load, but when you start looking at the frame, you are weakening the overall strength...Got, imagine grade 8 bolts made out of Al.

Wow! You're a fuckwit. Even the cheapest shittest android phone is still a smartphone. I'd love to hear your definition of a smartphone that covers the first gen iphone, but doesn't include current low end androids.

You paint with a very wide brush. Front-end development is still relatively new. Anyone who has been developing for a decade IS a back-end developer. If you have been keeping with the times then it means you started doing more and more front-end work (aka Javascript). Now there is so much on the front-end that it actually has to be organized properly and cared for. Javascript is no longer just a copy & paste language. Bad developers write bad code. The language is immaterial.

Bad language or not, it is already used heavily on the client-side. Using it server-side allows you to make use of the same objects without having to maintain things like validation logic in two languages. It also means that if you are using Karma or something similar for testing that you only need one testing framework. Otherwise you'd need two testing frameworks running. Switching gears from one language to the next isn't hard but going from strongly typed to dynamic often results in developers trying to strongly type their javascript or writing it in such a way that it becomes too rigid. Tests should be governing everything anyways, especially if it is TDD.

My company is using C# on the back-end and javascript on the front. I write php+javascript at home though (and have experienced a life-time of derision from "professional" developers for it). I still write C/C++ for linux and embedded projects. Too many developers have decided their language is the best and everything else is horrible. When really, every language is covered in warts. Every language has (had) growing pains. Have you ever wondered why if your language is the best it is rarely used in all situations? That's because it's not the best tool for every job.

Your kind is nothing new. Anyone who has a passion for programming runs into people with your attitude and just shrugs. It is almost like dealing with a form of bigotry.

lol, like you don't do that for C#? The language does not make the programmer.

The sum of the parts always exceeds the pre-built machine price. Volume pricing. That has been normal for PCs for a long time. I do find the graphics interesting though. They put workstation cards in there? Those truly are pricey. You could get the desktop equivalent for 1/10th the price and lose very little (double precision math usually). That machine is so tiny! My water cooling system alone is bigger than the whole "tower".

Maybe if the President responded to this then Snowden would be home: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/pardon-edward-snowden/Dp03vGYD

Kuwait was like that. The entire workforce was foreigners. BestBuys,Starbucks, and mansions in the middle of the desert. I saw several totaled luxury SUVs sitting on the side of highways. Guessing there was a wreck and instead of getting it repaired or dealing with it they just bought another. Not knocking them, just my observations.

I wouldn't say that is anything new. Downloading and installing software from a shady site onto a computing device has been going on for decades.

Saying your friend had an Android is about as useful as saying your friend had a smartphone. Name a brand and a model and readers will actually pay your critique some attention.

That was great! I tried watching the full competition videos and it was just too painful. Watching a robot stare at a door for minutes at a time and moving so slow it could just be entropy.

I think you're way off. The private sector did all the colluding by itself. US medical bills are just crazy. Sky high prescription prices because "the market" can pay it. Lol, they'll pay it or be in agony.

You could always just build a cpu from scratch? http://www.homebrewcpu.com/
