Cheap maybe, but if you really use Raspberry Pi a lot, you will find that Pi isn't that robust after all. I installed 20 of them two years ago, so far at least replaced 4 of them during the time. Can't comment on the recent models

A real estate bubble in disguise? Yes! But considering that young people in China don't have the luxury of garages, any rent-free office space can be of great help to them. At least the empty buildings are now put to use.

Few customers realize that how much it costs to keep an app going: platform API and UI change will either break your app or uglify it. If the app is using external service, then the service API could change too and that causes a lot of wor

My two cents on Vive after a short experience: 1. Video quality is better than google cardboard, but not much. Yeah, I am surprised too. 2. Headset and Control don't fit very well, at least for me. 3. You need a large empty room. Other

I wouldn't write those professionals off so easily. People barely knows AlphaGo until now. Once they start learning about AlphaGo's behaviors, they may be able to come out with new tactics. No doubt it will be a collective effort
