The wings are too small and the language is C++. Fitting.

In Manching, the still use ADA.

Thank god we have AIRBUS, DORNIER, BOSCH and the like here. They know how to do proper technology.

The companies started in the last 20 years in Germany seem to be all shite, especially the "web" ones.

The wicked psychology PHDs with officer rank...

Index Errors are just one of several type of memory errors. Here is a C++ variant, which avoids all (low level) memory bugs: http://sappeur.ddnss.de/

..BOEING only employs German engineers, while AIRBUS only employs Americans. Because BOEING flight control software is spectacularly crappy, while AIRBUS looks like they know their stuff.

Any non trivial GC based program WILL have memory leaks, until you find the bugs in the cache data structures your colleague Melinda has added. The cache only grows and lots of stuff is still reachable, the GC cannot do his work.

You can easily have memory leaks in a memory safe language. Just "forget" to release a list of pointers and you can have GBytes of leaks.

Memory Safety is about the protection of variables from accidental corruption, NOT about leak issues.

See this memory safe C++ variant of mine: http://sappeur.ddnss.de/

You can still have Memory Corruption if your language is not memory safe. Corruption is usually much worse than leaks.

The nice feature of memory safe languages is that they protect every single variable against accidental corruption from an unrelated module. That is impossible to do at the same fine level using hardware.

Just drop asymmetric ciphers. Instead use KERBEROS or simply SNEAKER CIPHERING, CIPHER OFFICERS. It was done with ease in the 1930s and 1940s. Why cannot we do it today, again ? Symmatric ciphers do not have hackable CAs, they do not have the MITM problem.

Dear Mr Ballmer, you need to redo this year's legal class.

SSH is secure enough. So is Apache2. Don't search for excuses to run your own server.

It becomes more and more clear how dangerous the centrally-controlled internet mainframe of the Google-FB-Amazon type has become. Time to rebuild the World Wide Web !

The antithesis to the World Wide Web, a large web of servers under highly decentralized control. A few rich and powerful people can nuke thousands of valuable(if only historically valuable) discussion boards out of their private little malice or power lust. Or they can fire their employees for actual original thought.

Time to REMEMBER how the WWW started. Time to remember the PRE-MAINFRAME times. Time to re-start the large collection of little servers. Each citizen should be running one, to store his own files and to publish his own thoughts. Uncensored by the financiers who build the MAINFRAME.
