Then one should give the opinion piece exactly the attention it deserves - none.

It's not an opinion piece, it's based on what companies are planning on doing:
A survey of 2,000 CIOs by technology consulting firm Gartner finds that by 2017, half of employers worldwide are expected to require employees to supply their own computing devices...
Sure it's a survey, but a survey is different from an opinion.

Yeah, it'll never fly for the great bulk of employees, but I suppose for the hipster douchebags who do sales presentations and want to show off their latest iDung it could be made to work -- anything to keep them out of the office.
It reminds me of when my wife worked in a call center and the rule was that they had to read their email each morning, which had to be done at work, but they weren't allowed to do it on company time. The management said it was like McDonald's employees having to put on their uniforms on their own time. They lost the class action suit.

Put "may" or "could be" in a headline and you can say anything.
Oh, but they mean a fancy, useless portable device, not a "clunky desktop" which you actually need to do your job. (Unfortunately, developer requirements tend to get mixed in with the average employee requirements at non-software companies.)
And do note that this is from Gartner, which is a collection of the dumbest people on the planet. They specialize in having companies pay them lots of money to tell the company what they want to hear. When is the last time Gartner has been right about anything that couldn't have been guessed by the average person?

Anyone who thinks that I would allow a company's sysadmin to vet my personal property should also be sent to the vet, for purely Darwinian reasons.

I have a 10 yr old and 13 yr old that I homeschool. They have been online and using computers for many years. I am curious of anyone's ideas on some good online courses or sites that teach about computers and programming. Any input appreciated. I have a laptop that I am going to let them take apart and explore. Thank you.

I have taken several tutorials there, and never felt any benefit from it.

And the last example on the "MySQL Insert Into" page isn't protected against SQL Injection! 
I sent that as a error using the "REPORT ERROR" link at the bottom of the page (2 months ago), and it is still not fixed!

Already I heard about that site. W3schools has been improved a lot after that site's content. Your post reminds me of this page[^]
