Bad user experience depends on the user. Personally I very much enjoy the somewhat lower price of less-beefy models of smartphones and tablets — as I'm not obsessed with taking pictures, don't play blockbuster video games on mobil

This saddens me personally, as I once worked with this guy; he is very productive and talented developer. Imagine how god-awful he feels now, threatened by police and forced to stop committing to his very own projects.

You're only "losing control" if you don't know how ASI works, which is well-defined in the ECMAScript standard. Bad programmers that can't understand ASI will be also confused by the floating point semantics, promis

Kivy is a fun little library, not without its quirks, but overall I felt comfortable with it. In particular, it's nice how they built everything around GLSL shaders, this allows for very interesting styling and visual effects. Also per
