Well it can't be any more impractical than a quantum computer.
(yes I know the spacing on this is bugged, I reported it about 3 months ago[^].)
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?

So the next time you see a rose, say "Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3", to make sure that the NSA is receiving correctly.

Aleksey Shipilëv, performance and OpenJDK developer at RedHat, has filed a new JEP draft to create a no-op garbage collector: that is, a GC that doesn't actually reclaim memory. Because they really just wanted C?

Isn't a garbage collector that doesn't collect garbage just the French on strike again?

I thought the last frontier in Java performance was for Oracle to produce a secure version.
Sudden Sun Death Syndrome (SSDS) is a very real concern which we should be raising awareness of. 156 billion suns die every year before they're just 1 billion years old.
While the military are doing their part, it simply isn't enough to make the amount of nukes needed to save those poor stars. - TWI2T3D (Reddit)

I'd think that would happen shortly after the heat-death of the universe.

Does the secure version come before or after the working version?

Java programmers and non-C/C++ developers wouldn't be able to use it.

“Whiteboard” interviews are widely hated. They also discriminate against people who are already underrepresented in the field. I could code without Google, but why would I?
OK, maybe with Bing.

No need. You can search StackOverflow from the SO site.

Most of the text on stack overflow is... more or less overflow...

The software giant has long been criticized by Windows 10 users for its aggressive approach to applying updates, and it’s introducing some new options to prevent annoying reboots. "We also heard that unexpected reboots are disruptive if they happen at the wrong time." Ya think?

Google has quietly launched a new video conferencing application called Meet by Google Hangouts, which is designed for HD video meetings. Try it before they cancel it

We should organise a sweepstakes, with the prize going to the person who picks the right cancellation date.

If I ever get my electronics lab set up, I may end up getting a couple of those to play with using Arduino and/or Raspberry PI boards.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Hell, had I known that parkour were only about jumping on a table, I'd have entered the championship!
It goes without saying that hydraulics are less likely to suffer strain or impact damage than muscles, so I was hoping for more -- even "jumping off" (it falls, really) in another direction would have been impressive enough.
And I'll bet that I'd beat it hands down at dancing on and sleeping under tables.

This is not the 21st century I imagined as a kid!
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

Pretty far off I think.. there just doesn't seem to be that spark of inventiveness or thirst to reach some far off goal that there used to be. It's almost like we've got comfortable with what we've got (when was the last time you saw a truly original movie, for example?).
I guess there was a lot of progress in the 20th century, and we can't expect every century to be like that.
