Comment Zero standing (Score 1) 11

In legalese, the UK has ZERO, repeat ZERO standing, as this is a Japanese company. If the UK wanted to object/scrutiinize, it should have been done with regard as to the sale fo ARM to a Japanese company. Now? [Idiot] Politicians want $$$ without any valid legal basis. Do I believe this is monopolistic? YES. It needs to be solved in the acquiring jurisdiction, not in that of which intentionally decided to abandon said tech company.

Comment VIM == "modern emacs" (Score 1) 172

I have the unfortunate 'opportunity' to watch/interact with developers attempt to be productivive with emacs in the 199x-201x timeframe. Nope: some VERY smart/senior folks wasted a lot of time trying to deal with the correct keystrokes.VI/VIM/Notepad/VS were much faster at doing simple stuff such as finding code, writing stuff (not necessarily code) than Mho-Rhons who insisted on using emacs. Yes, A rude comment. Yes, emacs is crap.

Comment Stupid article: AGREE (Score 1) 70

If you don't want to live the cellulite life: get smart and power down your 'smart' phone, and/or put it in a location (different room or in a foil covered box where it cannot get any reception) where it cannot be heard. Turn off slack/yammer/jabber/tiwtter/facebook/etc. notifications. It is not 'their' fault that you are incapable of understanding that if you sign up for constant interruptions, you WILL be interrupted. Let me guess, it is always someone else's fault in your mind.

Comment FALSE: the 'tik toc' problem is Donnie-tard-boi (Score 0) 85

The SOLE reason that Tik-Toc is on the radar for this administration is as follows: - it was reported that Tik-Toc users signed up for a 'the donald' rally and did not attend at all. Results: very low turnout. 'The Donald' threw a toddler hissy-fit/tantrum and decided to retaliate. So now 'the donald' has decided to ban them. There is a pattern here: if some entity calls 'DTB' (Donnie the Tard Boi) out, it (not 'he') scribbles an executive order to try to shut the entity down. If you object to me calling him 'Tard Boi': please put it into context. He is willfully ignorant; I do know folks with various mental challenges, and _ALL_ of them are smarter and more capable than 'the Donald'

Comment This is 'the donald' having a toddler hissy fit (Score 2) 208

This is _SOLELY_ a case of "The Donald == Twitler" having a hissy fit because media reported that one of his political gathering got independently over-subscribed by US citizens via Tik-Tok. No proof of 'national security' given. Now Twitler is attempting to deny Freedom of speech based upon specious reasons.

Comment bogus "measurement" (Score 1) 155

There is a serious issue here: while it is good/useful/popular for teaching,; the ecosystem is good sized, this does not mean it is a good language to implement high performance code. So far as I know, there is still not a python-->binary compiler. So while python is a great way to perform prototyping, it is ill equipped to provide enterprise grade level software.
