This is a silly argument. The cogs and sprockets must keep turning, so people will still get jobs. And it isn’t going to JUST be the 1% of us (us = people under 40) who aren’t on Facebook for some dumb reason. History has shown that the better people have been able to communicate with each other, the better relationships they tend have with each other. Perhaps the means by which we apply for jobs these days will completely diminish in our lifetimes, and people will be finding and obtaining jobs in an entirely different way. Perhaps that day has already come…

Comment on Why C/C++ Sucks by thenak

Most modern programming languages (that need a compiler) with exception of C/C++ have concepts of modules and where to locate depdencies without manual effort to define these explicitly through (for example make).

Comment on What comes after BluRay? by Beluga

IMO, Blu-ray discs seems to be sufficient to last a decade. Having said that, 1080p is also much more sufficient to last us a decade, if not longer.
