What about language problem? And investor Eco system? These are important considerations for entrepreneurs.

The fact is this type of talk in an office is simply inappropriate and cannot be tolerated. I have only sympathy for people who are trying to defend here. Just proves America would need another 100 years to be civilised.

Wholeheartedly support this thinking softie has no daggers hidden. The changes do make the language more readable and maintaninable compared to the mess called JavaScript. If the IDE is support is also there, this will be a no-brainer.

When GO introduces C like syntax and interfaces, people who hate Java and C++ (which has everything and more) jumps into the bandwagon. Interesting!

Software innovation and engineering go hand in hand, but not necessarily the same thing. Innovation will and have to come from innovators, some of whom would be engineers; but execution requires engineers. No India is not on the innovation

Yes the 75% figure may be right and that is a problem. But when you are producing 4million engineers a year, that still leaves 1m good ones. That is the sheer number. The mass effect. Apple is an outlier - so is Steve Jobs.

India produces more engineers as more leave. There are decent number of good engineers. You have to understand that output of engineers have increased 10 times in the last 10 years and thus you may find quality deficit in some; but in gener

It all boils down to a population problem. Japan is ageing and software demands huge work force. Only India and may be China in the near future can bridge the gap. It is not accident that Silicon Valley has more Indian engineers than any ot

Standards are set by international bodies (like ETSI) using a specified process which these companies are participants of. As part of the procedure, companies legally authorize the use of their essential patents to be part of a standard. On

I have, but I don't think the analysis is worth it. He seems really shallow at it. The massive transformation technology has brought about in India and China cannot just be termed catchup. There are many innovations to list that western eco

Standard based patents (as in LTE) are subject to compulsory licensing under FRAND terms. Not all the patents listed are that obvious or easy. For example take the case of concealed antenna; it took several years of research and millions of

It depends. Depending on the field of study, university may be a pass time or where you cut yourself out for greater challenges. If you are into a deeply technical subject, college is pretty much the only option. If you want to get by study

That Peter Thiel is surprisingly blind to India and China's technological progress says it all. There are two forces at work here 1) world GDP growth deceleration 2) massive shift of economic base to emerging economies. The realignment can

First thing to be done is to reform the legal practice. Why is legal assistance so costly? Why can't it be done cheap. The legal mafia needs to be busted first.

Go is unlikely to be faster than Java (JVM is very optimized) in the near future. So rerun your benchmarks!

With ICS, android introduced a new design language and look and feel and usability have improved. But nevertheless, we have always found the default UI recommendations need to be overridden at least 10-20% of times to get a usable app. And

If you are referring to the extensive methodology and formal verification systems used in mission critical software, it is still prone to error and is still not viable for most projects. So the engineering aspect has to still evolve and fin

Over the years we have failed to develop software as a true engineering discipline. The way a structural engineer can design and certify a structure as sound, I dream one day we will be able to do for software.

I will put the complexity of developing a reasonably complex native smart phone application wth backend a little above that of developing a website with similar backend business logic. There is also system programming like - avionics, telec

I think they censored the video because US interest is involved. The more Islamic world engages this video as a rallying point, the greater the security threat to US. Free speech has its costs too.

A VC is after money, not ideas. Their choices are to maximize their returns. Their investment decisions are purely driven by that. And the best in the industry are doing reasonably well.

The conclusion contradicts itself. If VCs erred in selecting their companies, then in consquence they will lose and cease to exist. The fact that VCs exist and thrive proves that they are following what is right for them. Now that right may

Yes. Probably the only platform that will run HTML5 apps proper. Web developers should wholheartedly lap it up. But the issue is - consumer adoption.

I think you simply refuse to understand - a nail may be pinned using a pickaxe, but when you have a hammer available, which does the job neat , why would you go for the pickaxe? HTML5 is the pick axe which does the job ugly. Mobile develope

Intent do not always translate to reality. HTML5 does not deliver for mobile/desktop. End of story.

HTML5 makes sense for what it is meant for. Web development. It is not a desktop or mobile app replacement technology. As long as one is clear about that, everything is fine.
