Actually, I'm pretty sure he does know he has dementia. Or at least did at the early stages. After he got all those Razzie nominations, it came out that he had deliberately phoned it in on a ton of garbage movies at the end because he was bankrolling his family's future, preparing for the fact that he wouldn't be working for much longer.

The Razzies rescinded his nominations and apologized when they found out.

Likely the same reason why banks and other financial institutions still use COBOL and Fortran code written in the 1970s or earlier on archaic mainframes: Top management decided at some point it was too expensive to rewrite everything from scratch in some modern language for modern hardware, so they just limp along with what they have.

A 16-bit app written for Windows 3.x would almost certainly have to be rewritten for modern, 64-bit Windows.

Also, the "video telephone" that everyone always so desperately awaited from the future? Yeah, we have that; no, nobody uses it, because we can't be bothered to dress up for a phone call.

I worry though that public votes will enable unstable people to stalk people. Vote the wrong way? Why, I'll just create some bot accounts to constantly downvote you, and I'll harass you with replies to every comment you make, reminding everyone that you vote against the grain and shouldn't be trusted!

As usual, Republican states won't adopt this. And you can expect Republicans to appeal this all the way to the Supreme Court if it ever does get adopted, which the current conservative majority will almost certainly bend over backwards to find "unconstitutional."

Or if they had an answer, they paywalled it, until Google got pissed at them for including the answer in their SEO but blocking it once the user clicked through. Then they maliciously complied with Google's demand to not censor by burying the answer under layers upon layers of ads and other "related" questions.

I was so glad to see SO eat their lunch.

Reportedly, they were restoring the comments of some deleted accounts for which they detected this.

That one probably got a rotten rating solely on the fact that everyone feels that anything other than a cheese ball, "man in a rubber suit" rendition of Godzilla is being unfaithful to the franchise.
