Would it be possible for federal government to outlaw bullets? There is nothing in constitution on the right to posses bullets so that would pretty much serve the same purpose as banning guns without going against the constitution. Alternat

It sounds like they continue to boil the frog slowly. If you look back 10 years and compare the Mac OS then and now, would you have accepted the change in one version? Probably not. This will continue until Mac OS and iOS are unified and to

Or, Apple can allow users to install whatever app they want instead of forcing just one they provide. Android lets you do that (you can install any app you wish and disable the system apps) so it can't be that hard.

Apple has already made money by selling you the iPhone/iPad hardware. If different app stores are allowed then Apple's app store does not host or review the app so they do not suffer any loss there. So this just means that Apple w

The main problem with MS isn't that they cannot build something new and innovative...the problem is that they keep trying. Most people don't want that. Most people just want refined, faster, smaller of the same old Windows they ha

Easy, stop supporting Safari. No-one cares when IE support is dropped (people usually cheer for this) and user needs to download and install another browser. So, stop supporting Safari and concentrate on Chrome (I use Firefox but their mark

I know MS Paint is seen as a joke but what is the Linux program with equivalent functionality that actually works? Recently I wanted to copy image from Firefox and paste it into a program to crop and add some text. Ubuntu did not have a pro

At some point income from hardware and app sales will stop to grow at the rate that Apple considers adequate. Maybe 30% cut from app store will be lowered as part of some future lawsuit settlement, maybe new cheap phone with decent hw/

That is still just improvement on what's already available. Next level will be obvious when it is available. It could be VR or AR or something so radical we can't imagine it but it has to be like computer to typewriter improvement

Lazarus and Delphi have the most intuitive UI builders of all the tools I have every tried. Lazarus components can be anchored relative to the parent and to each other. Latest Delphi has various layout panels - stack, relative, grid. Both t

It is difficult to compare software development with civil engineering as they operate on different levels. Software development is better compared to building houses. No one expects single story house to support 4 extra levels or for inter

Unfortunately C# and the rest of .NET ecosystem (and for that matter Java and rest of JVM) are not fully 64bit capable to this day and will probably not be fully 64bit capable for the next decade if ever. What do I mean with this? .NET and

Fir me Debian releases are broken to start with. Fresh install of 10.3 resulted in gnome desktop that could not use gui sudo and some package with broken dependencies. Replaced with xubuntu that just worked. This was not the first time I tr

Apple also obsoletes hardware without making any transition or major software or hardware changes. I can develop for latest android is on my 2009 macbook but not for latest Mac or iOS. I can probably install latest MacOS in virtual box on 2
