   MS should push Visual Studio Code, as that's properly multi-platform, and forget Xamarin. Now that the .NET CoreCLR is open source. Monodevelop is an awful piece of software.

    Hanlon's razor: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. ... I wonder if there's an MBA / capitalism version of this, centering around short-term profit at the expense of everything else.

    I guess it would allow you to ship the core of your software compiled as C/C++, and then system-integrators/sysadmins/hackers would script against your APIs in a higher-level language. No need to recompile or for users to see

    It's easy to host a pdf on it. Most file sharing sites have countdowns / ads / gates to entry instead of just showing the content.

    I have a (2013) Samsung Smart TV. Voice recognition for it isn't always-on - I have to press a button on the remote. It's like siri, surely, in that whatever you say to it gets shunted off to a third party API that recognises word

    This looks really awesome for people with PowerPC architectures. As part of the porting, though, are there security guarantees? I imagine if they're re-written low-level implementation details they'll be opening themselves up to r

    The other 20% don't really care about click-bait, or haven't analysed what's happening, and won't have a strong opinion about it. I'd put money on people in this 20% clicking on these things a lot more than the othe
