No debate for me - just use the right tool for the job

OK, here's my attempt in my best Internetese:
No! You're absolutely wrong (wrong, wrong)!!!oneone1!!! You MUST use the programming language|development environment|whatever that I have invested my interest into, or the Nazis win.
Or something like that.

Which of the many right tools?

When Microsoft encourages its engineers to think outside the box, the results aren't always dead-ends like the Kin. In fact, the company's research division is now showing off an amazing thin transparent film called FlexSense that can sense deformations and allow us to interact with tablets and eReaders in fascinating new ways. I'm obviously not the target market for this

I think the target market may be indicated by this "discourse" in the comments:
fangbanger: "What kind of other shapes can it adopt ?"
Andrew Liszewski: "Umm, round, cylindrical, curled, tubular, etc."
fangbanger: "I mean the concept, can they do a boob shaped sheet of plastic ? You know, for scientific research, of course..."
I guess it could be used to help train for "mammary checks".

What happens when you give an Android Wear smartwatch to a 16-year-old with a bit too much time on his hands? You get Windows 95 on your wrist.
Soon to be available for the Apple Watch? (Through Google Play for the utmost irony.)

Why?
(I would guess 'Why Not?')

See? Those smartwatches are actually so 1990ies, as practically proven by this hack.

Hewlett-Packard is reportedly planning to splitting itself up into two companies, one for PCs and similar consumer-focused products and the other for business-focused lines, such as IT services. H and P?

It's been around for a long time, and existed in various forms, but the version we'll be solving I originally encountered in a handout given to physics students at Harvard, and is called "Green Eyed Dragons." That's easy: 42

Your insanity has a frightning logic.

On the hundredth day after the departure there are a lot of Long-tailed sparrows on the island
|

The answer is that inductive reasoning obviously doesn't model reality, based on the the purported difficulty of the solution.
For the pendant in me, in a world close to our own the first response of any dragon will be that since the other ninety-nine dragons have the same colored eyes, as they can plainly see, their own must be green or the other ninety-nine must be green. If it is common knowledge that all dragons have the same eye color, they would immediately conclude it was true for all. If it wasn't common knowledge, a follow-up discussion with their peers would reveal that everyone had the same color, which must be green. So either way all dragons disappear that night.

1) Dragons are subject to quantum effects and enter a superposition that collapses when observed so unless Sylvester McMonkey McBean[^] goes back to the island to get them to switch from iPhones to Android (or back again) they'll be fine.

Can I solve it? Sure... Do I get the same answer that the logicians get? No way. And even after reading all the explanations, I think my answer is correct.

What is a planet? That is the question Harvard scientists want answered. Unfortunately for Pluto, the debate on the definition of a planet puts it back in the middle of an eight-year-old classification controversy. My very excellent mother will be pleased

According to an interview with Bloomberg TV, the ex-chairman apparently believes that Microsoft’s Office productivity suite is in need of dramatic improvements, and that it should be the software giant’s top priority to make that happen. Finally! An update to gorilla.bas!

Wow he finally started using it seriously and found out it's a PITA eh?

Hopefully he's still got enough clout that they'll listen to him...did I really just say that?
If he talks to them in Klingon it may help?
