From the people that brought us Objective-C, the only programming language that seems strange with a decade of coding experience. Its not a coincident.

This! Republican party has the problem that they are targeting a declining customer segment.

What's with this informative BS? It's against the TOS, right? Back to snarky oneliners mister :) (Thanks)

HAHaHAaa! Finally "News for nerds, Stuff that matters"! :D

4) rational thinkers see that Trump is full of populist rhetoric and no real answers and distrust him

I wouldn't hold my breath on this.. I've had a few occasions where Facebook will stop an ad link from opening because it suspects malware, BUT will not stop SELLING the ad!! Priorities, it's good to have them..

The problem with UBI is that it's a big new income redistribution and as such a huge political problem. To cover the costs you need to raise taxes that creates a new big transfer of income from the rich to poor. Also since UBI is such a big change in the system, it’s likely to introduce a new set of problems (e.g. scenarios which it can’t handle or where can be abused). And there is no middle ground, you have to go all in to be able to get the benefits.

I can believe C#/java can give you enough rope to do things in really dum/trivial/slow-ways. But I find hard to believe that its not possible to get good performance out of them. Ie you could do the the low level parallelism on those also. Meaning "good C++" can be 100x faster than "bad c#" but difference to "good c#" is not that big. Right?

Wow, no company ever went from "price renegade challenger" to "price gouging incubent" that fast.. Uber is probably right that it's possible jack up the profits that way but inflated margins means more money on the table. And people will notice that shit. Next step would be to limit competition through lobbying..

First read that "transform and monetize", maybe that's how the tax cuts get balanced and they'll get a healthcare reform agreement. Make America Freemium Again

Same here and I still remember Pascal fondly. Also my first experience in professional programming was Delphi 4, which was essentially "RAD Pascal" (and a hugely advanced and modern environment).

The internetz council convened and decided we will none of that "admit my mistakes"-bullshit here. Please hand in your card and exit the premises immediately.
