Sorry this just does not work... if what is being shipped is harmful to your own work or the rest of the company I feel I should speak up.

Sometimes the person/people normally doing ego defending often tries to blame everything/one else over their view or project.

If someone is trying to defend a telnet session into a banking server, live on the internet in 2026 then hey dude this has to be called out. (( I am not saying I have been in this position in 2026 )) but even the year I was in this position it was 100% unacceptable and needed fixing.

1 - 2 million people are homeless!

What next mr south african, will go for 100 trillion?

A deficit occurs when the federal government’s spending exceeds its revenues. The federal government has spent $1.25 trillion more than it has collected in fiscal year (FY) 2026 - another 1.25 trillion to go for the second half of the year.

writing in another language, how much more complexity do you want to introducing :)

I believe bash scripts can be anything you want them to be, if they are useful to you then happy day's.

if you hit performance issues or want to experiment else where cool.

error handling in ruby is almost impossible

error handling in python is wildly hit and miss

error handling in golang is rather annoying

error handling in powershell, good luck you will need it

error handling in perl ok i'll stop now you probably get the picture.

If your government can go on strike for weeks and months, why can't the normal people?

hope you are getting 50x more value

:) good luck you will need it :)

- All US workers need to go on strike until you get a government that works for the whole population ;)

In the 80's there were a few slices of thoughts, why are you interested in computers? They won't go very far... or we don't know how to make money from them...

IT, Computing, the Internet has for the last 25-30 years been stuck thinking about shopping and billing.

The brute force statistical copy and paste we see today, it may or may not replace a large part of the internet systems, but there were always many other aspects of computing or the world that computers could be used for that have hardly been touched.

To any social media platform's (if any of them can really be called this) that are saying they can not or will not police their own platform's of dangerous content, really you will be held responsible!

Just because the big IT corp's might become blinded they will live in fear of being on the brink of extinction, if they replace the creative people or their customer's. To the CEO's and management sucking billion's/trillion's of dollars out of the market(s) this can't continue.

There has to be change(s) because we have boxed ourselves into weird position(s), i.e always chasing the cash cows.

We are not even at the start of what's possible, what "people" will/could create in the next 50 years, with the right levels of education and inspiration the computing world will most likely not be stopping or slowing down any time soon.

This article is so tilted towards the American market and that's fine.

I used to play Wolfenstein 3D on a friend's PC. They certainly did not pay anything like what I had, but within a year or so they would have had to upgrade as well. The thing is I could do more with my A600 than most people who used a pc. One the games were there and the games were great to play, the first game I bought for the A600 was almost all I needed for Sensible Soccer, soon to be upgraded to SWOS. but there were probably 50 - 100 games that were just amazing. Photo and Video Editing, Making Music all in 1992 in fact the A600 kept me going way into 1999. I then bought a A1200 but it was not the same...

Saga and Nintendo were the challange to the Amiga, I am not saying Doom did not have a big effect but I think we just assumed there would be a release at some point.

Three words, plug and play!

I do wish Commodore would have released the A1200 in the A600's package if they had. I probably would not have been able to buy it.

I got an Amiga Format magazine in the hope that the 3 half inch disks would fit into my home computer. (( they didn't half an inch out )) lol It showcased the A600 and the style of the machine was so much better for the time than the A500 it looked sharp and new I ended up buying it within weeks or month or so.

The A500, A600 and A1200 are all prone to discoloration....

I still have two A600's and one A1200 and all of them are still working, not bad for a computer that is 33 years old and took a battering for many years.
