Well, a lot of the Leavers wanted to bathe in a perceived Victorian Empires’ Greatness. At least in that aspect they have reaches Victorian levels…
Well, lets call it an armed robbery, then.
Well, at least there are people who still use Perl.
I remember being forced to learn this in university.
I started CS from the POV of someone with several commercial projects under the belt and at the time being fluent already in five or six different programming languages. But the university where I started had had an issue - they had been way to theoretical (imagine people writing their CS thesis on a mechanical typewriter, and professors telling us that one does not need computer access for mastering CS!). So they had been more or less forced to include at least a bit of real world stuff into their blackboard and paper world. Which resulted in a no-excuse-mandatory beginners course in Turbo Pascal in the first year and Turbo Prolog in the second.
And I was not alone. It was painful. They showed a programming task to be done on the overhead projector, and about 90% of us could have just typed down the answer without thinking and be done with the weekly assignment in five minutes. Nope. Instead, we had to follow (and join) a lengthy, boring, and worthless discussion about the very basics of programming, before we were allowed to work on it. And woe to us if we did not follow the precise path that we had been “taught” in that lesson, even if it was done in a way that no normal programmer would ever implement it.
If they had given us all the assignments for the semester in one go, we would probably had finished them in one afternoon, including documentation and time to spare.
At least with Turbo Prolog we learned something new. First and foremost that there are strong reasons that nobody uses Prolog for serious programming.
Maybe Andy Stone should avoid high buildings and invitations for a coffee from strangers in the foreseeable future.
He is the Cardinal of the archdiocese of Cologne in Germany. He made a seriously bad figure with regards to investigations intosexual abuse by priests and is a serious opponent of any change in the church.
There is an old contract between the church and the state in Germany. One provision in this contract is that priests in the archdiocese are only to be trained at Bonn University. He considered this “to worldly” and tried to set up a more conservative seminary from a number of funds designed for totally other purposes and in breach with this old contract that might put the whole role of the catholic church in German society into turmoil.
Many lay people but also members of the church want him gone ASAP. People turn their backs to him in church when he preaches. And thousands of people leave the catholic church primarily because of him.
The next one he needs to kick out is Cardinal Woelki.
I wonder where they are going to test those weapons. Maybe in Kyiv?
I didn’t say that I agree, I just pointed out that there are way more prominent ways this sexualisation is done.
I also don’t agree with the headline of the article that this kind of pictures will somehow “flood” the internet. It might flood their hidden nieches for being cheap and plentiful, but I don’t think they will pop up increasingly in any normal users everyday browsing activities.
For “normalisation of sexualisation of children” go ask the people organizing child beauty pageants.
We could exchange them for a few million other refugees from your continent.
No, the rupees sitting in India just show it works as intended.
If he gave it all back, why is he still a billionaire?
Time to drop any kind of support for those countries if they fraternize with Putin.
Dartboards, Dartboards!
The EU would tackle this by telling those aircraft owners to switch to unleaded fuel somehow, e.g. by fixing or replacing the engine, or put it out of business.
“This incident demonstrates the evolving challenges of cybersecurity in the face of sophisticated attacks. We continue to work directly with government agencies on this issue, and maintain our commitment to continue sharing information at Microsoft Threat Intelligence blog."
Translation: Fixing bugs cost way to much more money than just leaving them in, so in order to save the profits, we just wait them out. If the shit hits the fan, we can still start looking into the issue and maybe get some PR coverage to distract the public.
But we still happily support government agencies to exploit the barndoor-sized holes in our software for whatever nefarious reasons they have because they pay us for that.
