To be fair, there aren't even really great experiences to be had with a good android tablet. The OS and app ecosystem simply isn't good enough for big screens.

Simply put, the ocean is a massive place with so many factors at play (like underwater currents bringing in cold water), that the heat generated by a ton of small "micro" datacenters will be pretty inconsequential.

So I'm supposed to trust an anecdotal "everyone actually uses AWS" comment over an official earnings report?

I love the idea, but is the ability to display gifs really all that important in the context of what they intend this to be used for?

Maybe I'm in the minority, because coffee to me is something I drink when I'm taking a break from work, or enjoying extended leisure time. The idea of never leaving my desk and having some lukewarm Starbucks drip delivered to me

Except Wikiwand isn't a Wikipedia redesign. It's explicitly a Wikipedia reader , and even advertises itself in that way.

I don't think it's really about that, especially because getting most of the pie doesn't really matter if your business collapses a year later, or users move on because they got bored with the product or service. I think it&#

I'm not sure that blog post is really applicable. It's shunning the idea of using designer tools to generate mockups of Wikipedia which focus on eye candy at the expense of content. That's not really what's going on wi

Are you referring to backend services or the whole IDE? Because the GUI is written in WPF.

Totally inexperienced opinion here: We're in an advertising bubble. Remember the ridiculousness surrounding the "Yo" app? People running around in circles about how it can be a great way to increase brand awareness due to t

My area only shows Crossfit gyms. Are there other gym types planned? Also, although this appears more like a personal project and less like a startup, the ability to cancel a membership through this site would be great. Membership cancell

I wouldn't be shocked if he goes that route, but he's still the CEO of an engineering-driven company. I think it would inspire confidence that the person at the top cares about technical stuff and can empathize with other employe

The listed specific pitfalls aren't about taking a bet. They're pretty clearly elements of incompetence. I wouldn't call nonpayment of taxes or living too high for the business taking a bet on a strategy unless that strateg

Take this as a grain of salt, but my experience with React so far as been one where it's easiest to set up your UI as one-way "data pipelines".

This brings up an interesting problem to solve: How to tell if something is a "real" contributor rather than someone who sends the occasional spelling fix. I imagine recruiters would be interested in some way to easily tell this.

Just tried it out on my Nexus 6. Scrolling the "home" list feels sluggish to me, as does the "Notebook" feature. Is this written in something like Cordova? I certainly hope not.

Because that's a terrible code smell! The proper way to handle that case in a language which doesn't support pipelining would be to break each call into a variable and use those those variables. But even that can be tedious, hen

Can't speak for nim, but Clojure has a near-exact feature which is used all over the place, the thread-first and thread-last macros. Example: (defn do-stuff [params-map] (-> (build-object params-map)

I've run into this problem using TFS on Windows before. Combination of folders within folders and a deep source tree would force me to abbreviate in file names and pull the source directly into C:\ rather than a preferred place.

There's other features, but the biggest for me is if you're writing TypeScript or C# you get first-class visual debugging support. Also the live Markdown Preview (cmd-shift-v) is pretty awesome.

Thanks, this is what I was hoping someone would write! I searched around a bit about HKT's and although I can't say I understand them, I can see how the ability to do something like provide a constructor over a type could be usefu
