Comment Humans don't need to look nice -- a nerd's journey (Score 0) 112

Since our hero is Bill Gates, a well-known and rich nerd, which has no social skills whatsoever, our good practice is to reject all human activity from consideration. Instead of making humans look beautiful, we must do that to gadgets. Sales people are complaining all the time that the gadgets we produce are not beautiful enough, so focus should be on making gadgets beautiful. This way nerds can claim "exactly correct" designation for making gadgets look neat, and since selling the gadget to customer is possible, there's no need for further human development / humans don't need to be beautiful. That's a nice tip for anyone that looks like a nerd.

If they have user interface...
  - they cannot displlay names of pirated content
  - they cannot display locations of pirated content
  - they cannot display the actual pirated content

It's as simple as that... Any kind of indirection or storage location doesn't really matter when all those software need to have user interface.

Comment C++ and all its LIMITATIONS (Score 0) 139

Converting kernel to c++: Possibly bad idea,
Enforcing kernel c++ to c++ programmers:: VERY BAD IDEA
Forcing c++ programmer write code without STL: Extreamly bad idea

Basically c++ programmers can only see LIMITATIONS in your ARBITRARY rules that you're trying to enforce. It's not going to work. They want STL support first, to get std::vector and std::map to work. Then they want PERL inside the kernel. (just kidding.)

Either way, you're going to suffer tons of misery trying to enforce subset of c++ that you consider as valid c++ constructs.
