Any failure to get to the expected desktop must be investigated. No exceptions. If you ignore red flags, yeah, you are going to get owned. Windows doesn't do that normally, it doesn't reboot after installing updates during the boo

JavaScript doesn't really have C extensions like Python has. PyPy did implement a JIT for Python, and it worked really well, until you tried to use C extensions.

If we are to judge ethically, one particular cat should not be punished for the sins of the cat species. As far as we know this particular cat didn't do nothing. Then we need to talk about criminal liability. In the sense that a cat ca
