Ruby never went away. It just used to have an extreme amount of hype and now is a mature and, dare I say, slightly "boring" language.

No it's to share visualisations and stuff, similar to a game, but let's face it - the code is going to be incredibly basic, generic and not worth protecting.

The problem is that those aren't the reasons for the inflation. The increase in the money supply is. But crafty politicians have blamed everything else in order to try stay in power. The measures they're taking, increasing inter

I mean, it basically boils down to money. Set prices high enough and you get those who can afford it. And if you've always been elitest, then alumni admissions will all be upper class as well.

I didn't say a phone camera isn't better for the average consumer... I use my phone camera far more often than my actual camera... But there's no world in which it's technically superior to a real camera, especially one

Well if you have a baby you'd know that function is kind of important in baby clothing. They're not exactly cooperative when getting dressed... Not to mention, they can't pick their own clothing. Parents do. Regardless, o

So you think if we don't paint our son's room blue and dress him in nothing but camo he'll want to chop his balls off later? No, you Americans just have ridiculous views (left and right).

I mean, Unix/Linux was top to bottom C for a long time. It still kind of is. Higher level languages aren't needed per se, but they do make life easier.
