My instinct is that they are going to flood the early adopters market with low RAM laptops. Then silently introduce upgrade options something like a few months down the line. This serves the dual benefit of being able to pump them out faste

Design is entirely personal preference. Therefore information-first is a good bet if you want to absorb as large of a demographic as possible. Keep the layout and page design simple. Load times should be fast or nearly instant for that slee

There is no evidence Russia is involved. Given what was apparently Podesta's password coupled with a lack of two factor authentication, these leaks wouldn't have exactly required a team of elite hackers. But even if it was Russia.

Webpack alone requires hundreds of dependencies. You are populating your node_modules directory with megabytes of code, any of which could stop working. If you plan to maintain your code for years into infinity then it's no problem. Ot

It might be. For comparison SV startups get to play with ~$7 billion quarterly, but even if Berlin startups are getting 2.4 billion in a year (other sources say 113 million), companies like Uber and Soundcloud are still considered startups
