I believe they're usually tempered so they don't break in large pieces. They usually shatter into small rounded pieces. Source: My cousin broke our shower stall.

The bends doesn't necessarily kill you. It definitely can if the decompression is fast enough with a large pressure differential, but it can also cause pain or dizziness without death.
Idiots shouldn't buy things they can't afford. I have no sympathy for someone that buys a gigantic overpriced truck and gets it repossessed because they're not paying the bill.
I think it means you're killing yourself, instead of getting hanged by a hangman for example. Similar to shooting yourself in the foot.
You sound like the kind of person that thinks tomatoes are vegetables.
It's just a tool like any other. An experienced developer knows that you can't apply every tool to every situation. Just like you should know the difference between threads and coroutines and know when to apply them. Or know which design pattern is relevant to a given situation. It's a tool, and a useful one if you know how to use it.
Extremely misleading title. He didn't say programmers would be a thing of the past, he said they'll be doing higher level design and not writing code.
He's a billionaire. He can probably pull some strings.
There are anaerobic bacteria that don't need oxygen to survive. That was the norm before The Great Oxidation Event when cyanobacteria started releasing oxygen into the atmosphere during photosynthesis. Prior to that there was very little oxygen in the atmosphere, and anaerobic bacteria ruled the world.
After the GOE the high concentration of oxygen killed off most of the anaerobic bacteria, and what was left were organisms that made a blood truce with oxygen. Aerobic organisms gained incredible power from utilizing oxygen for metabolism, but eventually die from the accumulated damage the oxygen does to them.
