I wonder how much % of my CPU potential performance is given to all this "gimping" done in order to provide state actors a backdoor to every PC and to help the CPU manufacturer recover field servicing costs.

Yes but is the aim here not to bedazzle a star struck audience, rather than properly educate?

C + classes does the job for me. I hate decoding code - that's the compilers job!

Yes but then it would be for other programmers for computers. Or for other programmers for other programmers for computers. Better to say its for computers :)

Function borders should be drawn by defining abstractions, not by counting lines of code. Sometimes, the most useful abstractions involve large functions.

In my opinion, I wouldn't call XCode the pinnacle. That position is for VB/C#.

Hmmm. Have you considered closing some of those and regressing away from your online presence in order to solve your evident frustration with managing so many pwds? If I signed up for all that cra..stuff, I would close some. :)

I may sound like a skeptic, but I am fairly sure that if MPEG have an interest in this, it is in order to license it. If not now, then later. In my opinion, this would be MPEG getting their teeth into a new tech, in order to either license

The minute they mention MPEG, I already know whats going to happen - Licensing. Spoken by a dev that didn't incorporate video, due to licensing, not technical reasons. The open bit is just the draw.

Yeah this would be a deal-breaker. I can imagine the devs will be working on a way to "convert" one to the other, but I can also imagine that comes way down the priority list, so I am not disturbed by this fact, at this time. This

I completely agree that this bias is unfair, and that a sentence served, is supposed to be payback to society and therefore your standing should be reset. However, in the real world, once you have "shi* on your shoe", it is not th
