The issue that invited such comments from Torvalds is to do with the compiler apparently spilled a constant and incorrect stack red-zoning on x86-64 code generation. OK Linus, don't sugar coat it, what are you really trying to say?

It seems Linus forgot how open-source code development works...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Shouldn't he be fixing the code then? Make 2014 the year of Linus on a desktop?

Repositories, Adapters, MVC with all it cousins, SOLID, RTFM… As a (PHP) developer, those words are thrown at you from every corner of the web. And I hate it, I’ve had enough. Stop telling me what to do and show me those kittens instead. Opinion pieces - a Problem or a Solution
OR:
Variables - Saint or Sinner?
Big Ball of Mud - Botheration or Benefit?

Any patterns are just another works or idea from another human.
There will be the time where those patterns are suitable to follow,
however, don't follow any patterns blindly.
Just take it as reference.
There will be the time where those patterns are no longer suit.

Google's got a big new project and it's you. Well, not just you, but a genetic and molecular study of humanity that aims to grasp at what a healthy human should be. Why not? People already go to Dr. Google to solve their health issues

Look to Vista for how Redmond will treat Windows 8 as it moves on to the next bright, shiny OS. "When you awake you will remember nothing"
|

As always I'm a few steps ahead of Redmond - I banned Win 8 when it was still beta!!!

Win8 beta never existed - it's a figment of your imagination.

Gee.. No kiddin' Microsoft.
They should have to sit in the corner with a dunce cap with a big 8 on it for a while untill they promise to behave again like good little boys.

Well I can't really forget unless you release new one so that I can wipe out Windows 8

I heard somewhere that there is no next version.

Yes, someone was saying that - a lot - but he has left the theater!

He bailed already? Dang, and this edition of the news was assembled with him in mind. Ah well, it will give him more time to spend with Windows 8.

Oracle database shops that have or are planning to download the latest version of 12c take warning: The vendor's newly launched, much-hyped in-memory processing database option is turned on by default, according to one expert. Stockholm syndrome: feelings of trust or affection felt in certain cases of kidnapping or hostage-taking by a victim toward a captor.
(It's the only reason I can think people stick with this kind of abuse)

Oracle is the main database in retail banking, insurance, central government and healthcare - basically industries that primarily spend other people's money

Aaaaaaah. Now that is the best explanation of their continued success that I have ever heard. Thank you.

IMO you should've quoted the $23k/processor license bomb that the feature comes with. Reading the blurb I thought it was just that your previously small dev DB's VM would explode to consume your entire VM servers resources.
Speaking of which, does Whoracle still count processors by core instead of by socket?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
