And what does that use internally to manage tables? Just because there is layer between you and the API, it doesn't mean API is abandoned.

Explain why there were hardly any addicts among peasant communities in rural third world countries back in the 70's or 80's.

Just a catchy title. Not abandoned etc. This is the only API available to manipulate HTML table tags.

Abandoned? When? I still use this pretty much everywhere to create HTML tables. Do people use something else now?

In the din of industrial strength siren songs, you may have not noticed the rot that is accumulating in the society. MS Excel exists only because you have some data that you think you should care about and you can't fit in your mind. A

Go out into rural India and ask someone if they care about someone knowing their contact details. Same with 90% of city folks. By the way, growing up may not be so cool. For you.

Users in India wouldn't care that much about privacy of their data as much as the Western folks do. This reduces the importance of this whole episode and I don't think this news flashed across TV screens or caused a debate anywher

This works only under some assumptions about the context, who is talking and who is listening. Observe a heated debate between two adversaries. The more listening you do, the more you lose out. It's all about who got the mike for most

What happened to America. Maybe 70's or 40's were it's peak. Every activity has become a betting. Investments, sports, relationships, home-buying. Addictions are a symptom of having an excessive amount of free time, floating

Solving a cube has two parts, determining the moves and making the moves. For humans these two activities happen mostly in parallel. For robots, moves were already determined before the start. So the time taken is merely all about speed of

If it forces you to keep running with more and more speed just to stay where you are, I wouldn't call it as "benefits of society and civilization". A lot of what we call as progress is a forced transformation of basic needs f

And we must let someone or some crowd dictate what our basic needs are. That crowd is part of our world. If we stick to our bows and arrows they come with canons and horses. Argh!

MS Office and other MS Products are unnecessary bloat of features and luxury that are dumped on customer only to keep the competition away. MS is YAGNI.

Problems, including NP-complete ones, are only a product of the way you look at them and the reference frame from where you look at them. They get their incarnation only out of the observer's context.

Polarization maybe a bit unclear word here. Connectivity creates cohesion, which creates larger creatures. So what we have is, virtual monsters roaming around with huge human groups riding on them. They can organize real protests, polarized

I think it's just your way of looking at things. What if a FCF (functional core function) calls another FCF which calls another FCF? Or do we do we rule out such calls? Object Orientation is only a skin-deep thing and it boils down to
