In my opinion elite universities are more for traditional career paths. They are nothing for entrepeneurs. You waste too much time with exams. There should be an opportunity to get credits for entrepeneurial work at university. Edit: I am e

why I use Windows 10 on my desktop for daily work: - best hardware support, no driver problems for example with my graphics card or thinkpad dock - updates etc. just work without any configurations or reading manuals - Visual Studio is yet

hamburger menu should only contain notbso often needed actions. There can be additional buttons in the GUI. Simple as that. also most android apps support swiping from the border which gives the user a quick access to actions not using any

sometimes I feel like an alien when I say that I need 8-9 hours sleep to feel awake the whole day. 6h seems to be normal nowadays. Can I train to sleep (a little bit) less?

It seems that google wants to have code monkeys instead of creative software engineers. This is a common problem of big companies. IMO it is one of the reasons they get stuck with innovations. Of course also the interviewers don't want

I like it just to press the win key to do a (cortana) web search. If they stay with bing as the only web search integrated into cortana google will lose some users. Nevertheless they should implement google as an option.

there exists the term "overengineered" for technical products. There should be a term "overdesigned" for user interfaces too. Material design is a good example for this.

The state pays for your education. Germany has a very good engineering education. Where do you think comes the brand "made in germany" from? We germans still build the best cars and machines.

It is to expensive! Here you get the smallest SP3 Pro with i3 core for the same price tag. It has a bigger screen, more performance, double RAM and a better kickstand.

Thanks for your notes. As mentionned there is a python interface for FreeCAD. There is no need to know OpenCascade. I didn't know verbnurbs and solvespace. Verbnurbs is only a simple NURBS library. Solvespace seems to be more comparabl

Printing from top to down from a plate is a much better approach because it works faster. The whole layer can then cure instead of only a single point. This seems to be the main difference to conventional 3d printers. The website is inaccur

I don't understand why the trackball died. I can move a mouse pointer much faster with it than with a trackpad. Google's G1 had also a trackball. I think this was the only smartphone with a trackball.

I can't see a real difference to stack overflow. You should also learn about online marketing. Having a great product isn't enough to get traffic. I don't want to be offensive but your product isn't even very awesome.
