Indeed, Linus should have followed the example of Bill Gates, who famously gained dominance in the desktop market by being such a very nice guy.

PHBs have a reputation for stupidity, often well deserved.

AI promises to do all the grunt work, so it has the potential to make everyone into little more than a PHB.

OK, give them all one of those travel bikes that folds up into a suitcase. That way nobody would have the advantage of a good fit.

What I would do: Have the race sponsors dole out randomly selected identical bikes to each competitor just before the race. They could even use crappy Huffy bikes as long as they're all the same.

That would kill two birds with one stone: Making sure that there's no cheating, and eliminating the ridiculous obsession the cycling world has with trying to create bikes that weigh only a few grams. As a bonus, the best *athlete* would probably win.

The bad news: Hackers have gained access to thousands of SharePoint servers.

The good news: It will be of no use to them, because just like the befuddled employees who are stuck using SharePoint, the hackers won't be able to find any relevant information in the byzantine hierarchy of pseudo folders packed with stale artifacts.

Everyone pile into the trades just in time for the next cyclic construction industry bust.

Here's another small tweak: Fold the line back on itself to form a grid!

That way, you can ditch the whole train thing and just walk to all of your destinations. Plus, you get an urban plan that has been proven workable since the days of ancient Mesopotamia.

Materials to build Henry Ford's first factory were delivered by horse-drawn carts.

Your formula is a just a low-speed approximation of the actual formula for kinetic energy, and it is not accurate at relativistic speeds. In the actual relativistic formula, the amount of energy increases towards infinity as the mass approaches the speed of light.

"Sir, we need to know how fast the earth spins so we can aim our missiles."

Very well then. Carry on, ensign.

Not sure off the top of my head, but I'm pretty certain that it has something to do with Planck units.

It wasn't that long ago that people were making posts on this site confidently claiming that "Maybe machines can beat humans at chess, but they will never be able to beat the best human players at go!"

More importantly, how will they be able to spot the trojans in the code that are part of the AI's plan to eliminate humans and take over the world?

Thanks for making it clear that you're a fucking ignoramus and that everything you say can safely be ignored.

It sure is a pity that there's not multiple types of evidence from biological and geological data that corroborates and extends thermometer readings.

Oh wait, there is.

Let me save you the effort of your predictable reply: "I don't believe any of it. It's all bullshitt!!!!!!! Naah naah!!!"
