Comment Learning to ride a bicycle... (Score -1) 180

any idiot can ride a bike, but programming is a gift. just because you are part of an "underrepresented group" does not mean you can do it. there are only two groups, those who can and those who can watch... what pisses off the Jobs and Gates of the world is they can't cheap out on smart people. that's the ONLY reason they are trying so hard to get people to start coding early - CHEAP UNLIMITED LABOR!!!

Comment Where's Dave Cutler when you need him... (Score -1) 739

at some point the temperamental Torvalds needs to retire and a real OS developer brought in to add the following: 1. business processes instead of yelling at people and tantrums 2. decide to add modern OS features such as kernel interruptibility 3. clustering using a distributed lock manager Or better yet... get Hewlet FudgePacker to open source VMS so it can be ported to x64!
