If there’s one archaeological find that would turn the world on its head it would be the discovery of the lost city of Atlantis. Many have looked for the remains of the mythical locale, but nobody has come close to actually finding it, and researchers claiming to have found it in the past have all ultimately been proven wrong. I'm sure they just need a 'small investment' to confirm their findings

From the article: the location was chosen based on Plato’s writings as well as other text
"Other texts"?
AIRI, the only texts that actually mention Atlantis are Greek -- y'know, the Greeks who had bugger all to do with Spain until thousands of years after Atlantis disappeared.
And concrete? Concrete was invented by the Romans, who had a ready and plentiful source of the chemicals required for it. Concrete older than the Roman empire doesn't exist.
In point of fact, if it weren't for much, much older texts (like the Frisian Linda-something) which describe weather conditions consistent with a really bleeding huge volcanic incident, I'd be tempted to disregard the whole Atlantis thing -- but on the far side of Spain?
How much is the Spanish tourist board paying him?

A survey of Rust users finds difficulty and frustration with the language’s highly touted features for memory safety and correctness Maybe they just need some WD-40 between the ears?
or sleep?

In other industry news, the problems certain users have with Rust have been addresses with a workaround.
A spokesman said that the workaround involved "studying the bloody language before making a pissing mess with it".
Bloody kiddies. If they can't code during their breaks between tweets, they blame the language.

“Rust’s big claim to fame is a mix of speed and memory safety. Rust code compiles to machine-native instructions, and the syntax and idioms around memory management—lifetimes and borrowing—make it difficult for memory-unsafe code to compile at all. But users still have trouble understanding those metaphors.”
Pony is similar in this area, possibly even more difficult. But with Pony it’s data race-unsafe code that won’t compile.
But, as they say, you don't get something for nothing.

Rust also prevents data races by default. That's one of the major benefits of its ownership model.

By 2022 more IP traffic will be created on global networks than in the entire 32 year life of the internet to date. Another shocking prediction for you

And the biggest part of it will be occupied by totally useless IoT Bullsh1t.

OK, I hate to play the grammar nazi (God, what a liar!), but that's not even a prediction; it's a simple statement of fact.
If you get only one bean per day, and you keep them all, then BY any given day, you've got more beans than you ever had on any previous day.
But even if you take that gaffe away, the statement is cr@p. Why 2022? why not "today", "Thursday week", "next year", or any other time?
Is there some intensive, incredibly accurate research program in place, which can precicely calculate the times in the future when things will happen"
Of course not. There's a dick sitting at a word processor, who's got bugger all to say, so he just makes sh1t up.
2022 sounds cool! I'll say 2022!
Here's a real prediction of the future: Talentless, click-baiting, "Internet-author" idiots will annoy me just as much in 2022 as they do now.

That brings to mind the story about the guy who always travelled by air with a bomb in his suitcase.
He had calculated the probability of there being a bomb on an airplane, and it wasn't low enough for comfort. However, the probability of there being TWO bombs on an airplane was low enough even for him.

The way that line is worded is very confusing and ambiguous, but I take that to mean either A) from now until 2022, the amount if IP traffic is going to be more than the last 32 years of internet activity combined or B) the total annual traffic in 2022 is going to be more than the last 32 years combined

The most shocking thing about that article IMO is that by 2022 40% of the global population still won't be internet users.
Quote: This rather startling prediction comes from network infrastructure specialist Cisco which reckons that by 2022, 60 percent of the global population will be internet users.
EDIT: oh crap, am I still allowed to quote the article like that or is the EU coming after me now??
