Even sidestepping the 46% less "For Whom" : Qwerty/dvorak/whatever .. No one is really worried about cranking out Words per minute anymore. Nor is it going to significantly change RSI injuries where one wasn't already going to happen.

I see PG's resume, but I seriously wonder how many programmers he's interviewed, hired, managed, and fired in the last 5 years. How often has he thought about what to pay his engineers in relation to their output and others in the group. How much experience does he personally have with offshoring? I bet not that much actually.

This doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Besides the fact that Nest is a great product (But so are Triscuits), why would Google buy them? The Nest _does_ know when you are home. If Google starts to use Nest data to target adds at me, I'm going to rip it out, set it on fire, and mail it to Larry.

MongoDB, has 3 black eyes in as many weeks. Not that I'm surprised that in addition to corrupting data, AND wasting resources it also is a endless security hole...

Just going to get on the hater train here. (not any poster in particular but Mongo in general). The day Postgres releases an upgrade, I expect, and get 100% functionality. So the fact that this is "Just Released" is FAR from an excuse, in fact it shows EXACTLY why you shouldn't use Mongo. Also a 100GB DB, with 300 connections and several MB per second.. Seriously. WTF is wrong with you people? Multiply by 10, and you can still do that on 1 machine.
