The Death of the Author came about in 1967, even New Criticism, which foreshadowed Death, came about only at the earliest the 1930s-40s, after IA Richards published his Practical Criticism.
Shelley wrote in the Romantic period, when the artist's personal "genius" was paramount as a conduit to the "sublime". Saying that he somehow whipped up a criticism of "author as the arbiter of meaning" in what is practically a product of a friendly poetry contest is plainly absurd.
Strangely you also attributed this anachronistic reading to Shelley, making it somehow the author's intent to be counter-author-intent. Just... why?
This is not a new idea. Playing with the boundaries of presentation in literature is just a subset of post-modernist lit.
If you want a prime example, OP, you should look into 4chan /lit/'s massively collaboratively written post-ironic tome "Hypersphere"[1]. It's the epitome of this sort of hyperliterature.
Apple makes some nice hardware but they are not alone in making good stuff. They have some stiff competition.
For example my Sony Vaio Pro is significantly faster than any of the numbers mentioned in the article. It gets nearly 1GB/sec in read speeds: http://i.imgur.com/24GdPiz.png
Even though your statement is not necessarily true, I bought a Vaio T11 almost two years ago and I was able to upgrade the SSD (the laptop has the footprint of the 11" MacBook air) and I have a HDD (in addition to the SSD), that I can upgrade very easily, I also had a free SoDIMM slot and was able to double the ram from 4GB to 8GB. That's what I like about PCs. Here with the mac you only have one drive that you cannot change or upgrade and the ram is soldered.
Well which one? I like them and they are nice, but doesn't really compare to the air or the pro retina in handling. But maybe you have something in mind.
No gdb is bad for c++ debugging because it doesn't include parsing support for c++.
At least I'm not aware of being able to type in c/c++ in gdb on the fly like you can with lldb contexts.
So what exactly is "hip and cool" about having your debugger actually use the same parsing engine as the compiler infrastructure? If you have a technical point make it, otherwise stop being the discussion equivalent of acid.
