Yeah. Kids don't aspire to be sports heroes or rock stars in the droves we were accustomed to for what ever reason. It sure seems to coincide with the mobile internet though.
After 6 years of running a studio at my house the kids didn't seem like they were in bands like they were before.
Old guys with "one last shot" and the fussiness to go with started filling the vacancies. I'm an old guy too but because the 50 sames rarely have band buddies they wanted me to help them with their music. And not at scale you can bet.
I said nuts to that.
Kids today. Won't sit up straight at a desk and use PCs anymore either. That really $%^&ed up a lot of things in a bloated industry.

It's all about reality TV now, the race to the bottom. We really should stop rewarding stupidity.

If you had to know how it worked before you used it any technology from any point in history would fail, wouldn't it? I don't imagine television would have got very far into our culture if you spent more time with the back off staring at the valves than in front watching the actual programming!
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

London-based Onux Technologies thinks it has the solution to JavaScript woes. The company announced today that it had released JS++, a type-safe version of JavaScript that it has created over the past few years.
Roger Poon, founder of Onux, said, “The challenge with solving a problem of this magnitude is that there is just so much code and so much that has happened since JavaScript was first introduced in 1995. Secondly, it’s very difficult to analyze JavaScript without actually executing code, and the code can execute differently across web browsers and platforms. We’ve worked on this problem since 2011.
Because who doesn't love JavaScript?

JavaScript is as fixable as PHP.

That's a novel idea, they could call it TypeScript.
Oh, wait.

That's how reliable they are
I think I've seen a few laptops. Maybe. Or maybe my brain is just confusing some old Sonys.

I've seen articles about them; generally written at big tradeshows. They don't sell them in the US though; so even when they look awesome it doesn't do us much good (and there've been a few over the years I really wanted).
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

This is true for all laptop makers. There seems to always be at least one proprietary piece of hardware, often from a third party, which the manufacturers simply don't want to spend money on updating and so don't. This goes way back, even on desktops and cellphones.
The only solution is to stop buying hardware.
The irony is that "generic" laptops/desktops/cellphones tend to not have this problem because the assemblers don't bother trying to be fancy.

New measurements suggest that our galaxy is on the slimmer side, at a mere 700 billion times the mass of the sun. It's all the nougat
