One of the biggest advantages for the F-22 is stealth. Conventional air defence systems like the S300 are phenomenally effective against non-stealth aircraft. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-300_%28missile%29 Air super

As somebody who moved from F# to Scala for a project, my major gripes: - Lack of a yield statement equivalent(in c#/f#). I know, there are probably a dozen alternatives such as continuation passing etc, but none so convenient. - It&#x2

Azure probably will get credited to Ray Ozzie. Rest of them are from Gates era. There are some monumental fuck-ups that happened under his guard though - Vista, Windows Phone are enough proof.

I thought so too - I've been an Opera user for nearly 12 years. But genuinely, I know think this is for the better - Opera15 is bloody fast compared to Presto. I can see that they are trying. It's still long ways to go, but they h
