I find that last line entertaining considering I feel the exact opposite way about linux and the utterly chaotic development model they employ.
I always feel like I'm building my castles on quicksand.
The author of this article is out of touch with modern engineering. It's nice to wax about the old days when things had simple linkages that were easy to debug, but I'll take my incredibly responsive anti-lock brakes, intelligent traction control, variable valve timing and electronic control of niceties before I go back to the bad old days.
I also have serious doubts that Toyota actually has any real problems with their software. I'm betting 90% of the issues are human error with a side of new-fangled-gadget blame.
Why the hell do people propagate this sort of bullshit? Don't feed the stupid kids.
Uh? Have you met users before?
Most open source developers work on platforms that don't suffer from the same level of malware abuse. There isn't pain to make someone care enough to write one.
Besides, AV is addressing the symptoms and not the actual problem: The MS operating system is completely broken from a security model. It won't improve until it's scrapped and redesigned. There is no patch for all those decades of broken and boneheaded.
The financial markets have always been rigged. Men don't go into business without some assurance they'll come out on top. The more money that is involved, the easier it is to convince the watchmen that your edge is a requirement for good markets.
Uh. Wouldn't those connections need to be made of atoms?
So.. you did nothing in school to approach the paltry standards you were given in school.. but yet this is the secret to your success?
Really?
You don't drop below your resting metabolic rate, you drop below the level you need to maintain PLUS the weightlifting activity you're preforming. Large shortfalls in calories are counter productive unless it's in a short burst.
Also, make sure you're getting enough dietary fat. Many make the change to a low carb diet by just dropping carbs from their low fat diet. You need to up your fat intake because what you were taking in for EFAs previously are now going to be cannibalized for energy instead.
Survive does not mean thrive.
The Irish have also had a long time to adapt to that diet. They're much less carb sensitive than others. Hence the difference between people from cultures who've eaten a traditionally low-carb diet vs those eating a high-carb diet. Native Americans suffer greatly, but those who traditionally farmed (Asians who eat rice for example) are healthy.
Don't call attention to the crazy. If you let it lie, you'll let it die. Talking about it just makes it seem like perhaps a valid viewpoint.
The police don't have the authority to remove a kid from school without jailing them. The school administration is empowered to provide sanctions and have experience and training in dealing with children. It's a very different game than the police who deal with adults, using Tasers.
Right, because criminalizing the behavior of children just starting to understand social dynamics isn't a way out of proportion response.
