One reason I see is that there just is not enough of good enough content and people seem to want to obscure things just because they want to hide the fact that there is not anything worth checking / consuming.

So most Americans live in the suburbs and commute but in a semi-big cities if you are not a middle class you cannot even afford to rent (not even think about buying) an apartment ? Why is this a big problem ? I thought in the US you guys a

I do. I exercise a lot and try to live a healthy lifestyle. I make a personal statistics on what affects my health and I firmly believe public transport is a big no no for me.

No it is not. Not even chromebooks are a thing. Android is a thing and if they try enough the might turn it into a desktop alternative.

You were comemnting on a blogpost from a person that thinks that linux on desktop is a thing. Well no it is not.

To me it sounds like a DSL created by much more powerful language would be really better than a completely separate prog. language. But if he wants to do it why not. It's just at some point a programming language per se will be used &#

Right choice if you want to do it for money (at the moment you never know what's ahead). You basically have 2 options in my opinion 1) technologies in demand ( js,java,c#,mobile,rails,python,sql etc) 2) do it for fun (pick whatever you

Well Windows phone was just different. And being different does not always mean being the best. Windows on mobile should have been more modular when it came to looks. Enforcing tiles on mobile when people were used to traditional icons on s

Very poor article in my opinion mentioning 3rd party applications most probably not available by default on linux boxes.

Well. If anyone wonders why I advise them to visit one of the ex-Warsaw pact or USSR countries. You can still sense the presence of russian influence there.

Protectionism in some areas is fine. I do not know what would be the correct solution though. It is understandable for China to want their local corps to build base in china ( like wechat, baidu and others ). But at some point they should e

China and Russia are here to stay. The US and the EU needs to make sure that our companies can fairly compete on their markets.

Kinda infuriating when people assume sw is dead because there is no longer hype around it. Vagrant is still alive and used. It still has its warts but it's a stable piece of software. Not long ago they released 2.0.

The old dropbox for me had a spectacular unique design and i really loved it. The design of the file browser before the previous one was imho the best. I feel like this is a huge step backwards and if the seamless experience of using dropbo

So what is it there to save USA from dystopian future ? Is it social democracy a la western europe. I kinda doubt that. I do not think that is sustainable either. For it to work you need rich consumers (usa, china ) and extraction of wealth

Sony ? I do not think so. Sony Entertainment ? Very likely! Apple knows that devices and software on their own have no value (for your average joe customer). It's the content that matters and in my humble opinion Apple will aim at comp

And the article is wrong. Samsung has revenue of 300bn and totals assets of 600bn. Why would they sell for so little as 262bn ? Or were we talking just about Samsung Electronics ?

If there would be an emp blast anywhere in the world you would have far bigger problems. Btw a cash counter in my local mcdonalds was out of order meaning the lady had to write down every payment on a piece of paper. Because apparently it i

It is uthinkable by many and it is a very hypothetical question. I am not even sure if the US would want to have a soil so far away from the “mainland” :-)

I wonder if a european country can become a US state one day. You know joining the US as an alternative to the european union.

I did not even want to comment but I have to. You are very xenophobic towards americans. Every developed rich nation has this attitude when it comes to outsourcing and offshoring. But all of it is just anecdotal evidence (it goes both ways)
