Two things immediately strike me:
i) How can a Linux-based O/S be described as "100% JavaScript".
ii) Why the frick would anyone want to do such a thing?
We need to enable alternatives to JS in the browser, not extend JS down to the O/S.

Making proclamations of fact or strongly stating opinions tends to put people in a defensive posture. Asking questions, even leading ones, doesn’t get people’s hackles up as much. "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."

If Bob is an adult then the tone of those questions are going to be every bit as confrontational as the strong starting opinions they are meant to replace. Some transactional analysis wouldn't go amiss
This is why I let the metrics make the opinions - i.e. "if the two of us share the load in trying to get these methods under the (blame it on management) quality metric"... same effect, different conversation?

That is confrontational but also cathartic - it nets out.

A court in California has declined Oracle's bid to disqualify an expert in its copyright dispute with Google over the use of Java code in the Android mobile operating system. How long before Google rewrites Android in Go?

The flight of Blue Origin's New Shepard vehicle reached an altitude of 100.5 kilometers and landed back at its West Texas launch site. Next step for Amazon: rocket delivery?

Everyone who is anyone has a rocket these days.
*I rode mine to work this morning.
Kind of boring news, you know?
*Well, I had to. I live on the moon. It's nice and quiet there.

Past studies suggest that messing with your natural circadian sleep rhythm can have adverse affects on your health. A new study, however, suggests that greatly altering your sleeping schedule on the weekend can have a similar effect. I'll give you my pillow when you take it from my cold, dead hands

If I don't get enough sleep at the weekend then I feel dead anyway!

I do not sleep in weekdays, now I should stop at weekends...Then when?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I prefer to read the title of this study as "Waking too early during the week may be bad for your health".

That's the solution! Now my health will improve drastically.

Google can unlock many Android phones remotely when given a search warrant, bypassing lock codes on particular devices. I wonder if they could help me unlock my phone. It was 1-2-3-something...
Mental note: never change the code late Friday night

|
|
Where did you find out this info?
|
|
|
|
|
Of course they can for unencrypted phones. So can Apple. Again, on unencrypted phones. Every phone OS manufacturer can remotely reset the lock code if your phone is unencrypted. That article is a bunch of "Sky is blue, water is wet" with a click-bait headline.
