I'm not really disagreeing with you, just saying that full coverage isn't important to some people. I feel like the available analysis tools for Angular are pretty good. There are definitely some gaps, so maybe I'll change my

Mozilla isn't operating far outside the ecosystem though. By releasing an Android-based OS with programs that run on web standards, it's pretty easy to add compatibility for most popular things that people do on their phones.

All of this comes down to using the wrong tools for how you are programming. If your editor doesn't support the syntax and your debugger doesn't support the framework, you need to use different tools.

Might be better to say that they have locked in their streaming content to Mac, Windows, Fire OS, iOS, all game consoles of the last two generations, 541 smart TVs, Google TV, a limited selection of DVRs, receivers and Home Theatre systems,

From what I've seen, Valve is aware that this tendency exists and has a lot of ongoing programs to compensate for it. When you have a lot of people working together, there's just no way to ensure that informal power structures don

I have to agree that they're both great. I moved from Linode to DO when DO was significantly cheaper, but since Linode has lowered their prices to compensate, there would be no reason not to recommend them, and they have the best reput

Free software definitely needs creative people. Finding artists and designers is one of the biggest issues for most free software projects. Programmers have found creative ways to get paid by adding things like small consultant fees to lots

I took the ambiguity of that statement as acknowledgement of what I'm saying, that just getting paid by traditional contracts is not the end-game for artists. They need to find a way to collectively work toward common goals outside of

I think that's true if you're talking about a university class, and most of the people who are associated with philosophy are not scientists, but I also think it's important to acknowledge that science is only valid because o

I appreciate such a thoughtful summary of recent history from a position I completely disagree with. I think the $50 is really just $50. There was never a time when regular writers and musicians had significant economic power, and getting p

I don't think you're quite addressing the point raised. Free software in government is not important because of cost savings or efficiency. It is important because of transparency. For example, a proprietary voting machine might h

I agree with Kasparov. I've never known a historian who didn't agree that there were major gaps and distortions in historical records. Fomenko may be a radical and an outsider, but he does have a very logical approach, which I app

I'm disappointed that the article leads with Intel's performance lead. I've always found it to be meaningless. Their best CPU is over $2500. Their best i7 is over $1000. I use an AMD A4-3300. It's fast enough for my need
