I don't think we have the full picture. Nokia will continue to use resources on Meego. Only a fool would put all his eggs into a single basket.

Haha, this is the same exact thought when I was introduced to Facebook in 2007. "Okay so...I can uhm..look at pictures of my friends and write messages to them through tiny boxes? Okay, why would I not just use Email?" I was sure the websit

Really? I mean how valuable is a .com domain to an average user? As far as I can tell, most people don't type in URLs at all, they type the site name into Google or have a bookmark. They mostly don't even look at the url, they look at what

In real life you act different depending on the type of person you are talking to. You are basically someone else to the parent / teacher / friend / shopowner. Facebook wants you to always be the same person, and people realize how uncomfor

I'd appreciate a way to get back to the last 'view'. Very often I type what I want to type, but while I type Google instant loads the search results. I read them with at a single glance and find something that interests me...however my fing

Marketing reasons, tech blogs don't write about minor version increments.

I probably misunderstood the 'pixelperfect' feature. I thought I could move css elements around in a visual drag&drop style to position them at absolute values. I think what you built, is an overlay of a static image to check for errors

Each word on that landing page is inside a separate canvas tag? Why? Anyway: Autoscrolling vertically doesn't work in the sourceview, FF4, Fedora 15. The features are confusing. It says I can move the design around by clicking 'pixel-perfec

You truly learned nothing from this exchange. These are simply two different cultures and you grew up in yours, and therefore you think only yours is valid. How mature is that? Likewise I could claim Americans are terrible friends, because

Oh yes, life is not so easy! Analogy: If my doctor told me that the human body is easy to understand, I'd look for the door :) For sake of getting anywhere in an argument, I try to abstract things down a lot but at the same time keeping the

Your emotional state is yours to control and change. Depending on others to feel good is not the sign of a mentally healthy person. Editing aswell: I'm sorry, I should have been clearer but it's quite lengthy to always be precise and includ

Yes, upbringing and cultural pressure move the boundaries but the underlying rules are the same: No person would tolerate always giving for long.

Look, I'm a "hobby philosopher", so I hope you'll forgive me when I say that you are wrong. Does your sense of empathy extend to random people on the street? 'Yeah, sometimes' you say. Okay, but it has bounds right? You don't help every sin

First of all, it's not up to you to define compassion for others. Neither is virtue. Secondly compassion, virtue...all that has no inherent value other than the value you decide to give it. Thirdly, did you ever question your own behaviou

I'm from Austria and I mention this solely because you felt the need to mention your location. Still please take this as an opinion of one guy alone (!): Here is what I think: Friendships are always give+take. When you are sick, you expect

Well this is off topic in my opinion, but I think Silverlight simply has worse designer tools than Flash. There isn't anything intrinsically bad about .NET, it just so happens that the tools are nothing a designer would ever put up with. I

There is nothing Microsoft could say to appease .NET developers. Obviously .NET and Silverlight aren't going away, everybody must know that. The only reason people are so mad, is because now they are not the only courted workforce anymore.

I have little experience with databases, please forgive me: How useful is a database with no horizontal scaling support? Is your target market small businesses and using it as a caching tier? I can imagine that everyone dreaming of a popul

I seem to have had this choking feeling for a long time aswell, very often when singled out by an authority figure. I don't know when, but somehow I learnt/realized that the only reasonable thing is to stop having fear, because nothing coul

Well maybe things working out 'okay' is not good enough? Maybe not everyone has a good life already and actually wants or needs to change? This advice is meant for people that want to change their destiny. It is good that you can be happy w

Your original post is completely off-topic, or do you actually want everyone to have as many kids as humanly possible? That would equal 1 kid a year, do you want everyone to have 1 kid a year, even teenagers, grandmas..everyone? No? Then st

This article is kind of a trainwreck, but I want to say that generally I'm glad when this kind of rhetoric is coming up. There are a few caveats though which I want to address first: The word "duty" is a human invention, and as such has onl

That is a very superficial conclusion, and I'm eager to expand on it. The environment was there first, not language. Sure, language is not as fast changing as the environment, so there is some delay which people apparently interpret as "la

From my limited experience with both: Vim is for editing text efficiently, Emacs is an allrounder. This is easily shown when you look at how they do things. In Emacs you have to press ctrl and/or alt for almost every keyboard shortcut. Per
