From my understanding of the issue, a scripting language was once a small language with one purpose which quickly expanded to fill all possible needs (e.g. Perl). By this definition C isn't a scripting language, as it was small and stood th

Sure, let's blame the computer scientists, not the dangerous Wall Street culture of getting rich quick with essentially regulated gambling. That'll fix things ;)

To be fair, the only thing that image proves is that Baidu's owners are too greedy. I don't think you can say a company is not Chinese just because it is registered on fiscal paradises . Hell, then I guess most of the Fortune 500 companies

The problem is that you are actually understanding that conflict less, by painting 16th century Spain as how you'd like it to have been. For example, the Spanish crown formally accepted the natives, since the return of Columbus, as citizens
