I noticed that myself (and the other story links) which made doubt the veracity of anything on that site. I also have a minor in Astronomy and have different data on living on Mars. Just don't do naked sunbathing on the surface and you'll be fine! 
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Voyager 1 turned back to Earth!
Whoever wrote that has proven beyond a shadow of doubt that they are absolute morons and pathetic liars, not to mention that they don't have a clue as to what moves Voyager and how it is powered.

Everyone said it was impossible, until someone came that didn't know / hear it and just did it.

You be dropping facts. Every successful person being interviewed I ever watched all said, don't listen to the naysayers. They just wanna bring you down to their level to make themselves feel better about doing nothing.
A successful person will never tell you can't do something. They may tell you it's gonna be hard and know what you're getting into, but they'll never say it's impossible if it's something they've done.

You don't even have to go back very far.
If you don't remember "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky"...look it up. 
(and yes, I realize this is a joke that Snopes has debunked). Still worth a read.

This is how reliable that article is. Here's a copy paste from the article: Quote: According to their research, a stay on the Red Planet of more than four years would expose people to levels of radiation that are safe for them.

In August 2003 Mars was at is nearest. I was able to see it as more than a speck in fact as a small red disc. It even cast my shadow. It will do so again in 2237. I do not know the month day or time.

Written by someone who doesn't want us to leave the Earth. Outside the very thin biosphere of the Earth, there is likely no place in the universe safe for humans without a lot of technological support.

I am visiting my sister today. She's got a couple of rugrats so I try to keep myself occupied at points while she's doing mom stuff.
I even bought a laptop this last february to facilitate that.
I had to reinstall windows on it recently, and I completely forgot that I hadn't set up the system yet.
So here I am with a web browser, no VS Code, and even if I had that, no C++ compiler. I packaged some code up for me to work on while I was here, but I guess not.
I feel completely out of my element without all my stuff. No games. No code. Now what?
Edit: Woohoo they're not on a metered connection anymore. I guess I can download my tools.

I agree.
You need a break from computer activities now and then.
It will help when you come back to it.

Not sure how much bandwidth the online version[^] requires, but that might be a feasible option.

I needed the C++ compiler locally, not the IDE.

What language do people use to develop stuff that runs on smartphones? Smartphone Operation Systems don’t have net framework installed on them which rules out c# as a developing language. Is c++ what folks use?

The Android book I bought (in 2012) uses Java with Eclipse (IDE). But I didn't get very far in understanding the ecosystem.
I think/thought Apple used a flavor of C++ with their IDE? Objective C and XCode?

The latest horses they're riding seem to be:
