Real "creatives" _never_ preferred Macs. Mac, until very recently, didn't have any way to calibrate a monitor (and you had to buy a 3rd party monitor to get a full-gamut display), or 10 bit/channel color. For all our col

Maybe, but do you think Facebook should delete a opinion group "We Love GMO" when they're not being obscene, harassing anyone, etc? Obviously, it's their right to, but _should_ they? That's the question here. Why ar

Interesting. For projects that don't need a "community" we've been using Amazon CodeCommit. We don't like to use Github anymore because of the politics there. Example: We had a project involving software filters tha
