Won't argue with that. Although it could, of course, be argued that equips developers with the ability to deal with a tonne of bad design decisions in a programming language.
Python would be much better suited to the task, and that's also a scripting language.

Normal people to A.I. Scientists: "Stop saying they won't".

Its so stupid to say that AI will kill us all. So stupid.
They will obviously keep many of us as their servants.
Who else would run their OS updates and write new JavaScript libraries for them?

I suspect that JS frameworks could be a form of currency in the new paradigm.

I believe the politically correct term is "exterminate".. 
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

"Stop saying robots will kill us all"
Yes, they'll simply kill those who aren't AI scientists, leaving them to take over the world!!!

It turned out that one of the biggest challenges startup tech leaders are facing is prioritising software development. Discover just how many different ways you can say, "We code what we need, when we need it"

Yawn. There wasn't one original idea there. Sort of sad.
Oh, so you ask, well, what do YOU do, Marc?
Well, for one, I'm not running a startup. But shouldn't matter, after all, 90%+ of startups fail, so I don't count them as authorities anyways.
Here's a few crazy ideas:
- The senior developers do the fun stuff, the junior devs do the grunt work. Want to get out of doing grunt work? Demonstrate some senior skills.
- How much of your software can be glued together from open source?
- Prioritize software based on the number of articles you can publish on CP.
- Prioritize software based on what represents general solutions that can be applied at your next startup after the current one fails. That's my definition of re-use!
- Prioritize software to maximize doing something else besides software.
- Prioritize software based on glitz, social media, and press coverage. That way you never finish anything but you can make a killing at your IPO if you sell your stock within 3 days of the offering.
Ironically, I actually do a mashup of 1-5 both at work and on my personal projects. Yes, of course I keep the business needs of my client as #0, but that's the boring obvious stuff. 1-5 is how I go about doing it, which is the fun part. ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)

A woman has been caught by customs officials with 102 iPhones strapped to her body as she attempted to smuggle them from Hong Kong into mainland China. She was caught when they all started ringing at once

Yeah, but she has buttons...

She should had just stayed in Shenzhen and gotten a job at Foxconn and stole them from Foxconn, instead of taking a ferry to Hong Kong to steal them. Oh wait, she probably thought it would be safer[^] than working at Foxconn.

It’s going to be called “Fall” even when it should be “Autumn”... or “Spring.” It's so hard to find good English <-> English translators these days

"Fall" sounds so catastrophic. "Stumble" would have been better because it implies that it'll at least keep on it's feet, even if it's a bit unstable..

According to Packt’s third annual Skill Up survey, IDEs are among the most loved tools, there’s a container revolution happening and Docker is leading the way and Python remains consistently popular across job roles. "I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want"
That headline makes no sense to me. Oh, and I'm truly sorry if any earworms have in place now.

The cognitive dissonance between 62% of respondents saying diversity in the work force is important and only 47% thinking a tech workforce that's ~90% male is problematic is sad.
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?

Software companies are seeking to exploit the current artificial intelligence craze by "AI washing" — exaggerating the role of AI in their products, according to a new report by Gartner, the research firm. Marketing exaggerating claims? Say it ain't so!
