I signed up for Google Wave and could never really figure out what it was for. Pretty much like the majority of everyone else.

If I look at job openings in my market, Tulsa, there are as many Java jobs as C# and Python put together. Only a handful of C/C++ jobs--I say this as a 25+ year C++ developer. I would say that if demand means anything, Java is far from dead.
Is it your your responsibility to do management's job for them? It's their job to have enough people to the job and to cover for you when you go on vacation or get ill. It's their job to read the writing on the wall and to consider that at your age you might want to retire or God forbid, you could get a chronic illness. I wouldn't give any more than a 3 month notice.
You should try drinking coffee and keep your day job. You're not even close.
Well, it's not 1997 and pretty sure we don't have to worry about the memory footprint of a 45 MB music player.
Aggressively tolerant maybe like Apple... Who is letting go of their diversity officer, who is a minority, because she said not just diversity of skin color and gender is important, but also diversity of ideas.
A while back I discovered that they’re selling photographic film again, so I bought a package of three rolls of 35mm Kodak color film. Not sure what I’ll photograph, but the Minolta 35 mm SLR takes a hell of a lot better pictures than my phone. Actually, than any phone—and any digital camera.

I certainly hope you're right.
Odd, but yours is the only comment. I posted the same thing at S/N and got a ton of responses. Is slashdot dying?
Again, it's giving me wingnut sites from both wings. I'd far rather get it from mainstream sites that have proven their validity over time so I didn't have to check Snopes or Politifact.
All the cops and newspapers are searching for a motive in the horrific mass murder in Las Vegas last week. No connection to any terrorist groups, no indication at all that it would happen, and the newspapers are all asking “Why??”
The answer is simple and I can’t figure out why nobody else can figure it out.
I always referred to the earlier engine as "Infosuck" but damn, Google's getting bad. When I open Google News in Firefox on my tablet, I get a blank page unless I click "request desktop site" and then it still goes nuts. But then, it might be my crappy tablet that I'll probably write about.
The answer is Google broke Google. I've been getting served a misandrist site from there, Breitbart (famous for its fake news) and wingnut sites from both wings. Did Sergey retire or something?
Not until I was at S/N earlier and someone journaled about it. Lately I never visit
Slashdot seems to not be for smart people any more. To misquote 2001: "My God! It's full of morons!"
IIRC it was 3. I hate the new KDE but it will have to do.
...and the old KDE.

Any more I only come here to read journals.
