I really wanted not to say the absence of... the danger doesn't come from absence of intelligence, it comes from the illusion of intelligence.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

"In short, the purpose of source code is to communicate the workings of a piece of software to the next programmer who comes along."
That's funny, I thought the purpose of source code was to create a computer program which solved a problem.
(To be fair, I think the guy's an idiot, pretending he's profound. "To prove my obvious point, with which nobody actually disagrees, here is a massive straw man, watch me push him over.")

There's two kinds of programmers. The first leans forward and immediately starts pounding the keys. The second leans back and thinks about how best to solve the problem.
I prefer the second.

I will agree that it is not a major bottleneck, but not that it is not a bottleneck. The faster you type the faster you can move onto the next part of the process.

New protections in Apple's Safari and Mozilla's Firefox browsers aim to prevent companies from turning "cookie" data files used to store sign-in details and preferences into broader trackers that take note of what you read, watch and research on other sites. I'm sure they'll work around it shortly

Quote: In a statement, Interactive Advertising Bureau executive Dennis Buchheim said that even as browsers makers feel pressured to deliver privacy-centric features, they should consider the importance of advertising in enabling free services.
On the contrary, what the advertiscumbags need to realize is that their actions have consequences. When several years back after agreeing to a voluntary do-not-track flag as an alternative to it being made mandatory, subsequently they collectively decided to ignore it they declared open war. That the rest of us are ramping up our defenses as a result. Personally, that move marked when I switched from a purely self-made blocklist consisting of whatever advertisers crap broke usability/user experience of the years to using 3rd party block feeds to preemptively kill as many of their payloads as possible. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?
