Let me show how wrongheaded you are. With these high-back SUV you cannot look through the back window, as we could in the 1980s. Most of you have crap driving skills. The problem is with your oversized vehicles and too-dark tent (when you took your driving course in a tiny vehicle with clear windows). Now little kids just materialize in front of a driver obeying the law, 22-25 mph and you have NO CHANCE to avoid hitting them.

Not to mention most of you cannot even park those beasts without a backup camera.

Then the elites will charge more for electricity.
We have been telling you humans for 40 years, diverse discrete thorium reactors.
One for each house.

If you omit menu and extra features, most DVDs could be ripped 100% quality to fit a 4.7 GB dvd rw+. What are you talking about?

Because you humans cannot perceive yet will demand 16K and then 32, 64, 128K resolution for your porn videos.

I have a wild idea. How about PARENTS do this thing called parenting? Your 3rd grader does NOT deserve unfettered access to the internet. Get them a cheap flip phone with mom and dad programmed in. And no graphics.

Or, don't give them a phone / tablet / computer that allows access to the internet.

I'd mod you up... Basic on Commodore 64 (tape drive) and fixing Compute Gazette MLX entered assembly.

I have to admit, must admit, that delimiters (python uses indentation, C uses braces) are inconsequential.

Python code is wonderful to read. I'm sorry, what python lacks in brevity makes it much more readable.
And easier to type...

Don't get me started on editors that require 200 MB ram to 'autocomplete'

Your user id # indicates you aren't who you claim to be.
Unless you avoided the slashdot since 1998.

Great to see you still active! I do think modern processors are too specialized to write assembly code.
However that is why Flight Simulator needs 16GB ram. And simple web pages occupy 15 MB.

ASM to speed up crucial parts of C

C to speed up crucial parts of python

python to speed up development

rust to speed up... python?

So where do object-oriented design, pair programming and the other buzzwords fit in?

Who, ultimately is responsible for the children? Hint: NOT SOCIETY.
THE PARENTS.
How about you either *do not* purchase them super smartphones, or put your limitations on them.
Most children need just an old school flip phone with GPS tracking.

Wait a minute, javascript does not outperform C / C++ except in developer time.

Neither Java nor JavaScript can outperform C, let alone hand tuned assembler.
