There is nothing misogynistic about bro. Guy is not misogynistic. Dude is not misogynistic.
Buddy is not misogynistic. Bloke is not misogynistic. Cat, chap and fella are not misogynistic.

Gal is not misandristic. Babe is not misandristic. Cafebabe is not misandristic. Chick, doll and honey are not misandristic.

Mozilla though, may be misandristic.

The NSA.

Would that the Caps Lock Key were repurposed as another Function Key.

As I type this on my MacBook Pro, I notice that ALL of the Function Keys are overloaded. What is so special about the Caps Lock Key that it wouldn't be overloaded? I usually end up disabling it: System Preferences>Keyboard>Keyboard>Modifiers Keys>Caps Lock>No Action. At least this prevents me from accidentally locking my caps which I NEVER EVER want to do.

Yes, they use zero unsafe C features. They use unsafe C++ features.

A fair comparison is Linux vs LLVM.

Linux is written in clean fast readable maintable C with GCC extensions.
LLVM is written in C++.

Go ahead and look.

I hate C++. It's the triumph of syntax over clarity. The only thing it brought to the game was a better commenting method. I can't read a page of C++ without referring to something. I've never seen clear clean C++. I'd never willfully write in C++. Objective C is a measured improvement over C and I vacillate between obj C and GCC. Would that Swift were more like obj C and less like C++.

In my career, C++ has been my least favorite language. There's really nothing I like about it, save its introduction of // commenting. I hate looking at a page of C++ and not having any idea and knowing I can have any idea ever given that one page. I wouldn't recommend it for anything, for anyone, ever.

I have progressives for driving and everything else. I also have prescription sunglasses for driving. But for computer work, I have a readers with the focal distance set at about 3-4 feet, tool distance. To be clear that is *not* reading distance. It's the distnace of your laptop or desktop. I also use these when I'm working with tools. But there are many choices out there, depending on your wallet. Single vision butt ugly prescription readers are CHEAP. Be certain that they are good and ugly so that you only use them for said purpose. If you have slightly more cash, you can get Seiko PCWide Trivex. Basically progressive exists because the lense makers can pretty much infinitely vary their lenses. Progressives are two or three lenses in one. But you can also optimize for other criteria. These are called free-form lenses and for a few dollars more you can get lenses optimized to you as well such as Seiko Individual. You will have to educate yourself on this. Your optician may not know or have the time to explain. But to be blunt about your question, no way in hell would I work with progressives.

Again, we'll grant that the guy is a dick. There are a lot of dicks in the world. Catch me on a bad day and I'm a dick.

Slander and libel are handled in the civil courts. If I say, Beckhem can't play the game of soccer, Mr. Beckham can sue me. Fire in a crowded theater is immediately dangerous, accent on immediate. Advertising is commerce.

I'm not saying you're wrong. At all. But our First Amendment says Congress shall make no law ... abridging the Freedom of Speech. It's only these incidents that illuminate differences for us.

As for the penalty, from this side of the pond jailing and getting kicked out of school for being a drunk dick on Twitter, I see that as excessive.

It was a Bush underling, Jed Babbin. Schwarzkopf was honored as a Honorary First-Class Private in the French Foreign Legion in 1991. France sent 18,000 troops to that war.

You're disagreeing with something the parent didn't say. He said that it's ok to keep reusing a standard text rather than coming out with the 2012 Social Media Enhanced Edition of First Grade Arithmetic. He didn't say that profs can/should write their own texts. In particular, he narrowed his argument to "Pre-university mathematics". I rather like my university math texts, Stewart Calculus in particular. Even in university there is a churn that requires students to buy the latest edition. But for elementary school and high school, I think Anonymous' argument is brilliant.

Because the installed base of Luddites were still using Firefox 3.6.x?

In addition to the hypothetical, there is also the actual case of the Malaysian extradition of columnist Hamza Kashgari to face blasphemy charges in Saudi Arabia.

This is not Slashdot level news.
