Running 12-year-old processors, next-gen spaceship’s tech is built for reliability, not to be state-of-the-art. But can you play "Angry Birds" on the Orion spacecraft? I think not!

It may be old but can fly space! Smart phones fly only once - and crash upon landing...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Not on.
But with, given enough Orions!

Computer science is a booming industry in the US — and it pays extremely well. There's always demand for sharp, talented engineers, which is why learning how to code can seem like an attractive option. Oh, you're going to love this one, "Before you learn a language, start with 'drag and drop' programming."

Agreed. I still remember the first few classes of Intro Comp Sci at University. Full of people who figured it was an easy path to huge salaries. They cleared out pretty fast.

Microsoft said at the Windows 10 launch event that the company would be releasing the updated operating system in the summer of 2015. Thanks to a note by Kevin Turner at the Credit Suisse Technology Conference, we have a slightly more specific timeline. Just in time for harvest

Huh. I thought it was supposed to be spring 2015.

To .NET or not to .NET, That is the Question Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the LINQs and XAMLs of outrageous fortune

Too long, didn't read...
At any rate I don't understand this fashion of being disabused with .NET..
Just configuring a Linux machine right now, can't wait to get back to .NET programming instead!

An interesting ... uhhh ... fantasia by (evidently) a psychic who feels the game has changed because new pieces, and rules, for the game have been announced ... never mind nobody has actually used the new pieces yet in an actual game, played with the new rules.
This really says something to me about the author's apparent belief in his praeternatural abilities:
"If you look at both early and mature startups out there – their code is 90% on the Linux stack (OK I’ve just made up this exact number but it’s about there)."
«OOP to me means only messaging, local retention and protection and hiding of state-process, and extreme late-binding of all things. » Alan Kay's clarification on what he meant by the term "Object" in "Object-Oriented Programming."

1. Curly brackets are better than begin....end
2. Semicolons are better than new line..
3. Reserved words are not good at all. I should be able to use 'integer' as a variable name and assign 3.14 to it.
4. C is better than your choice of {C++, Java, HTML 5, .........}
5. Let us kill Fortran.
6. COBOL is the devil's spawn.
You can add anything you fancy to the list.

Do they mean "discussions" or "very clearly asked questions"?
Discussions often get closed on SO since they are primarily opinion based.

Which could throw its future into serious doubt. Open Source: taking the ball and going home for decades

The Open Source communities main problem is the same old one: everybody wants to be a hero. So they fork on their lone adventures, change their business cards with titles as "YaNode.js prophet" to seek fame and fortune. And they don't care about the corpses they leave behind.
