Certification is meaningless when stuff doesn't run.

Why yes, giving you difficult to check XML files as a bad replacement for introspection, decent conventions, and complex class hierarchies (with tons of casts in the middle) to account for absence of features is just so much better.

Who said C isn't modular? You're confusing language features with programming paradigms. C can and is modular and flexible. Objects are not just a language construct A struct with corresponding functions is just as much of an object. And he

Yes, and still hasn't solved its performance problems that span all of the OS's functionality. Performance is something we might not care about at a high level, but on a kernel it's a first priority, and a very difficult problem to solve.

Umm, we're already there. Chinese knockoffs? There are entire industries that attempt to replicate original. The originals still stand and are more profitable than the knockoffs. People in first-world countries fail to realize that for most

Why is the parent being downvoted? It's true! This are just evolutionary improvements for some things and playing catch-up with others. Doesn't stop it from being a great product, but it's not the aweomest thing Steve wants you to believe.

You are absolutely wrong. Google makes money on every web search performed on any device. The point of Android is to get users to do search through Google and make the platform ubiquitous, and right now they're making money hand over fist w

Without plugin support Visual Studio is good as dead to me. I have several plugins which I consider essential, and I wouldn't put up with developing with a purposely crippled tool.

But the point is that it IS a nightmare scenario, since the situation is virtually unrecoverable. Ask any marine biologist about the chances of restoring any ecosystem of such dynamics past a point of no return (I work with them, so I HAVE

I doubt JIT will do anything to speed it up, since it's likely that the browser component is 100% native code.

Template inheritance is the way to go, and it's one of the most important features necesary to create modular sites.

It's not sensationalistic. You know damn well they're talking about edible fish that we're accustomed to eating now. You're just being intellectually dishonest.

You have no idea of what you're talking about. You can get Linux distributions that are 100% Free Software nowadays. 8 years ago that was simply impossible. You can be wholly productive on a FOSS system for a multitude of tasks. Seriously,

That's Oracle for you. In the end the only way for the JVM environment to advance would be if large users of the JVM push for new features until the FOSS community forks and begins patching up.

The point of using a VM was to abstract away from specific processor targets, since embedded processors run from ARM to PowerPC, MIPS, x86, and others (and multiple variants of each processor, support additional instruction sets). This allo

If we're talking about 100% scientific matters, the reality is that for most active research topics do require a Master's or PhD to get into the bleeding edge. Now, the reality is that there is a LOT of research that's out there that needs

That's the Jobs Reality Distortion Field for you; you get to sell the lack of a feature as a feature itself.

Completely disagree. Most of Django's components are so simple that you can tear them out and replace them for your own thing. I've done it several times now and I never felt confused about it.

This would scream antitrust. ARM chips represent something like 90% of all CPUs in existence; billions of cores manufactures every year by different fabs. I'm not sure it would be allowed to go through.

I'll bite. I've worked several years doing .NET and web development. Sure, desktop Windows development with C# in Visual Studio is a really, really nice experience. But shoot me dead if I ever have to do a real, actual, useful, standards-co

Yes, and so far I don't see downsides to this (aside from the dubious design decisions). The sources are still open, many people make derivatives from this distro to cater to specialists, interest and usage of FOSS grows.

I find the premise of the article interesting, but much of his research seems to be bullshit. "an energetic body capable of high mobility and peak energy bursts"? What the hell is this guy talking about? The peak energy burst of a human is

Google is making real money with Android, and even if it's a loss leader it's just another medium to expand their search business. They can afford to lose the millions in Android develoment and they still come out winning.
