I get the point, and agree with it somewhat. However, this truly seems like a perfect example of treating the symptom while ignoring the cause. Since this is all theoretical, wouldn't it make more sense to just stop governments from stealin

Admitedly, I'm a relative n00b when it comes to development but seriously "I do not get it". There doesn't appear to be much in the way of reduced syntax, at least not in the example provided. Can someone explain why this is better or clear

Instead of upgrading the notebook, you may want to consider switching to a solid-state drive. In terms of real-world performance boost, an SSD simply can't be beat. It's like upgrading to 60 or 120GB of RAM for <$300. I am not convinced
