Your house has windows. That makes you vulnerable to theft. Under your logic, If I break into your house and steal from you, it is your fault.

No. A trades job is great for anyone who has the interest and aptitude for the work. You may as well say any job is great for just about anyone. If you have no interest in a field, working in it is torture. If you have no aptitude for it, you won't succeed.

Speaking as someone who has a Class A CDL and has driven everything from a motorcycle to a semi, including cargo vans and step vans, if a van has a blind spot that "is anything but in front of them" then you haven't adjusted the mirrors correctly.

Quantum computing, motherfucker. Look it up.

A) That is why people keep money in banks, B) Yes, you can, sort of. In the U.S. you gather up the burned remnants of your cash and send it to the U.S. Mint where they have an entire department consisting of people whose job is to go through such remnants and determine how much money they can actually identify and then that amount will be returned. Now, what happens if someone figures out a way to break the encryption? What happens if someone steals and makes public many of the decryption keys? What happens if someone makes an affordable quantum computer that can produce the keys in trivial amounts of time? The problem with using math as a currency is that a math trick can destroy the value of the currency.

No, he is telling the NONTECHNICAL people filling NONTECHNICAL jobs in his pseudo-technical company they are useless to him if they can't do something technical that isn't their job. He is saying this to accountants, HR people, administrative assistants. To make this clear to you, imagine the CEO of a medical laboratory company telling college grad he considers them unemployable unless they can claim familiarity with at least two medical diagnostic tests. How about if the CEO of an electronics supply company telling college grad he considers them unemployable unless they can claim familiarity designing amplifier circuits? Or, the CEO of a financial company telling college grad he considers them unemployable unless they can claim familiarity with at least two methods of analyzing stock performance. Or, the CEO of a musical instrument company telling college grad he considers them unemployable unless they can play two methods different musical instruments. To put it bluntly, McDonald is an idiot.

I can assemble a firearm from parts available in a local hardware store. Maybe we should outlaw hardware stores. The fun part is I can assemble a number of even more dangerous devices from the same hardware store, so the hardware store is actually much more dangerous than a 3D printer.

You suspect? No, you hope because it would feed into your world view that FLOSS is as good, if not better, than proprietary software. But, without how and which projects were selected, this is just a bunch of propaganda. The thing that really sticks out to me is that the projects listed in the article all have paid contributors. That would be people being paid to work on the code. Something that you won't see in the vast majority of FLOSS projects because they don't have corporate patrons and they don't earn any money.

That is .075% of the history of the planet.

If the 300 open source projects weren't randomly selected (and judging from the article, they weren't), they aren't a representative sample of open source projects.

Maybe you should try reading the comments to this article to see that most people on Slashdot are just like the asshat in the article.

So, what you are saying is that if I get really fucking pissed at you because you are a real fuckhead, I can destroy your employment/business/personal life and you will good with that, right?

The tests are based on how people should drive as opposed to how almost all people actually drive, that is to say like rude, arrogant, impatient assholes.

You know what they fear better than they do? Interesting. When did you gain this magical power to know people you have never met better than they know themselves? Or, are you just engaging in a straw man argument?

Excuse me, but what is it you do to earn money?
