Breaking the market with a crappy program costs the responsible firm tons of money, up to a complete insolvency. This system is mostly self-balancing.

I never expected to read an article urging a technology company to hold back on innovation. This is really the saddest piece I've read in a while (meatspace news included). The author has some very misguided assumptions beyond the fallacy o

That's actually a good thing. I don't see "casual" sites using WebGL any time soon, more likely it'll be professional or purpose built sites (like online design software). Installing another browser will be a very small hassle for someone w

Writing code today is easier because of better tools and more powerful hardware, but the requirements and scope of projects have gone up by an absurd factor. A good programmer today is more knowledgeable and more versatile than ever before.

The part about the ARM core not being open source is a joke. Would it be better to teach children and students about esoteric open source architectures with no applications in the real world? The real problem of the Pi, and not just as far

It's not a backdoor, just uncontrolled engineering. I bet you that the product manager never knew about this; it's provably a capability buried deep inside the ip block (which, logically, is used in other Actel parts). Low cost ICs are incr

Modern web development is pretty demanding and resource intensive as it is, add not-100%-compatible browsers into the mix and it's hell. I think that considering Microsoft pissing on everyone for over a decade with their IE compatibility is
