You're right that can happen in most cases, but look at Microsoft's recent acquistions: LinkedIn, GitHub, Xamarin, and game studios like Mojang, Double Fine, Obsidian, and inXile. All well-established brand names that have continu

Tell them what exactly? That's a case of a developer not wanting to continue maintaining an app on the platform. And thankfully WINE and Proton are able to pick up the slack and make the game playable without the support of the devs. E

This appears to be a move to meet package managers halfway. Yes, tools like npm and go have great integration with git repositories, but others like NuGet still require a hosting source. Long-term, you could imagine package managers forgoin

No. So in his proposed system, we would define the procedure for making that information protected. The failure of our current government in this regard is that the default for any information is to classify it. There is more burden to crea

In addition to the other responses, when I was developing a game / game engine we chose Awesomium to render the UI to improve modding capabilities. A lot more people are willing to manipulate a website than some other scripting languag

According to the article the bots are only doing random picks from a pool of 18 heroes for now. I imagine pick/ban will come with later iterations.

There are a lot of factors that play into the speed (perceived and real) of an editor. Sublime is written in C, which is generally recognized as a performant language when used correctly. In contrast, Atom and VS Code are Electron[1] apps,

I don't think it's fair to assume an ex-employee knows the details of the software licenses or where to find them. If he knows more concrete details (like a link to the license file) I imagine he would share, but otherwise invokin

Getting involved in the community of open source software is a good strategy. If you can prove your technical chops along with being friendly and open to giving and receiving feedback you'll make good professional contacts.

Why would FedEx require users to enable Flash as "run always?" Is there really not a better solution available to simply whitelist their site or be given a pop-up in Chrome asking to enable it temporarily?

Techmeme mostly has human curation and a little bit of automation, though it is hard to tell from the outside how much that factors in. Human curators also rename article titles to provide a summary of the contents in an attempt to save you

A solution: everyone is sequentially numbered. Evens rotate left one round, odds rotate right the next round. That way everyone has to move the same amount (assuming an even number of participants).

That might be valid for most apps or services, but I don't think Facebook needs to worry about their app rating too much. It's almost a required app for most people. Not to mention the rating on the main app took a pretty heavy di

Definitely. The target specs[1] they announced are pretty beefy: NVIDIA GTX 970 / AMD 290 equivalent or greater, Intel i5-4590 equivalent or greater, and 8GB+ RAM. However, now that there is a target that means that tech will only con

I think the problem is that they have "blockers" that aren't quick to solve, and in the meantime other areas of the company are doing all of what you said. Perceived blockers for a mainstream release: * Wireless headset with

You seem a bit confused as to what the target audience for this is - not unexpected given the single day the project has been online, but a topic worth discussing nonetheless. Your initial demo is to control a mouse on a Windows desktop, bu

Check out Notch's Twitch broadcast history[1]. Since Mojang was sold he has been playing a variety of games, but scroll down a bit and it mostly turns into live programming and Team Fortress 2. 1. http://www.twitch.tv/n
