Enthusiasts and early adopters either already have compatible systems or would go for (3) or (2). And I've installed several CPUs with fans and heatsinks but am not a "hardware hacker"--I don't even own a soldering iron.

MSFT would do well to keep Mr. Dwizzzle away from Twitter and issue only carefully vetted announcements.

The commenters rip into the author for putting his tribalism aside long enough to be sensible on one subject. That site is quite the cesspool.

And I do not respect you for your heartlessness, illogic, intellectual dishonesty, and immorality ... what, you expect her to turn down a settlement offered by the landlord? No, you don't really, and you wouldn't yourself. The wom

So is it "probably" or is it "actually"? You don't have an evidentiary foot to stand on and you know it.

"In terms of respect, I respect people who value logic, reason and morality over terms of an agreement" Then you, like me, have no respect for you. Again, you are blaming the tenant for the amount of the settlement when that amoun

The point is that I can't respect someone who so blatantly misdirects blame at the tenant when, as I said, the terms of the agreement are due to facts not created by the tenant.

No, actually, it's not, but nice story.

Why did you dishonestly call it a nitpick, rather than the essential point that it is? > Your point merely buttresses my point Um, no. That's a ridiculous dishonest claim. > which is that 400k is far more than can and should be r

"This is insane." No, it's the opposite. "An owner of a property not subject to rent control should be free to raise rent to any amount." That "should" reflects the morality of a sociopath. "The argum

I have no respect for you, since it was an agreed upon settlement that reflected the penalty that the landlord would have faced had he gone to trial, and that penalty wasn't set by the tenant.

There's no such thing as the Clojure interpreter. Clojure programs are translated into Java bytecode, which runs on the JVM, which is a native program. (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3107299/how-do-cl

Sorry, but you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Clojure produces Java bytecode, which is interpreted (and JITed) by the JVM, which is a native program. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31072

"So, again, not only is their terminology consistent with the rest of the industry" You have said that twice. It was wrong both times.

"They said that the interpreter was native" Sorry, but that's nonsense. "native lisp" means that the lisp source is compiled down to machine code. To claim that an interpreter is "native" is to misuse the

"but its usually clear to the programmer when they are doing something dangerous" Um, no. Every pointer is fundamentally unsafe, and a lot of C++ code is written with pointers through and through.

"Every type system eliminates all its own type errors by definition." Nonsense. C/C++ will happily produce a warning, if you specified -Wall, that you violated a type constraint and then go ahead and compile your program. To
