As such, it is theoretically possible to support any scripting language on client side environment. I hope browsers will start shipping with multiple scripting engines in the future. JavaScript is not the best scripting language out there.

It is very rare to get products right on the first try. There is a reason Google products launch as beta. Most companies go for limited launch of initial versions. Microsoft generally does a mass launch; that is probably the reason for the

India would prosper if it is not governed like an empire from Delhi. Each ethnic state must form a republic with full autonomy and power should reach into the hands of citizenry.

No - I said Kerala has a high crime rate - but a relatively low homicide rate. Kerala is definitely an outlier in many respects in India. What I am trying to hint is it is not exceptional to have low homicide rates - there are several parts

I told you about the Homicide rate of Kerala, an Indian state which has 100x population of Iceland. 365 (470 including culpable homicides not amounting to murder) homicides in 2011 with 33.4 million population.So Iceland is nothing exceptio

by anuraj 13y ago
The homicide rate is not too low. For example, my state Kerala which has the highest recorded crime rate (read mostly petty) in India, has a homicide rate of 1.09 - Much less than Iceland even with 100x population.

Android has never been particularly open; never in the sense of FOSS. Samsung is in the business of selling devices and their business strategy is winning at the moment. I am sure Google too is looking for business though their scale dwarfs

India is too large a country with dysfunctional democracy and bureaucracy which is hard if not impossible to fix. Indian states are liguistically, culturally and ethnically separate republics. The true way out for India is to follow an EU s

India is what you get when governance gives way to bureaucracy, morality gives way to greed and spirit gives way to helplessness. Indians die by millions on the wayside consumed by hunger, disease and violence - and the well to do 20% looks
