I am really,really excited about Crystal. I wish it success but I am afraid if the rails shops and big companies do not start using it it will be too little too late.

I believe WP/MS committed suicide. They did not listen to their market and apart from the obvious app compatibility and lack of apps in general they totally forgot about people not really liking the unified design of the phones (you ca

Sometimes you do not have a choice. Or your only choice is to leave everything behind.

I did not mean it like that. I meant it as a personal opinion. I am not writing articles or pushing for a single solution for everyone. I believe every system has strengths but cannot be universally used in any society.

I would really love for Microsoft to cooperate on Go with Google. Of course not the C# approach to sink in all the features but maybe releasing an official pkg for win32 api and maybe even the GUI.

This thousand times. Socialism is an illusion. People should be able to pick their poison but please do not try to put one system above other.

I am not surprised. If you need number crunching app why not create a microservice and feed it to your rails ? Rails is great!

I would stay away from JS fancy stuff. Stick to the proven Java/C#/RoR stack.

In my country somewhere in europe you pay ridiculous taxes and you cannot opt out. The healthcare is shit, corrupt and if you want good care when they do not treat you like shit you need to go private and pay extra. Beware americans with yo

We are constrained by electricity production and the cost of materials needed to make batteries. Electric cars ain't happening anytime soon.

I believe the road to success for smaller communities / PLs is to excel in one thing and then expand further.

Well then complain to your government ? What is China doing in Africa is not nice.

Talking about other places yes.

Ofc China does not want HK to be free. China found out how to get "rich" without losing control. They want exactly the opposite of what makes HK HK. It's just sad that many strong economies feel like they need / want the

I was very unhappy with the traditional windows notebook experience (terrible hw quality, somehow questionable software quality). I own various Macbooks (old macbook pro, macbook pro 15 and macbook pro 13) and I absolutely love the build qu

My advise is when you care about your "career" stick to the one with the largest user base (or depending on your location). Learn it, love it, embrace it. Then experiment with whatever you want to.

I know that they are the "same" language. But having to maintain transpiled ES5 legacy app kills the joy for me.

by holydude 9y ago
When you say you like JS as a language what do you mean ? ES5 or ES6 or ES7 or transpiling ?

You need to have a passion and interest to do that. I did not have spare cash back at the time nor did i have a way to mine the coins. I do not feel like I missed the opportunity it was simply never there for me. In any way I wish all the b

I have been regularly sick when i was using public transp. I know my hygiene and I know that when i switched to car only my sick leaves dramatically decreased. I would not trade car even if it would mean to get to the place slower.

What kind of minutiae of ES6 you mean ?

But the question is when that will be available? It might be too late.

Hopefully! The problem with ruby is it's just fine as in good enough but not better or more compelling than X or Y. I hope Crystal changes this or there will be some breakthrough in the mri.

So which programming languages / tech do you think are the real deal ?

I am wondering why Rubymotion is not more popular in Japan. Is it because it is relatively very expensive or is not enough ruby ro gain momentum?

Yeah the article is not telling us much. IoT and ML that is it but who, how and where ?

Well this is what I do not know. I am not an investor nor a shareholder but I suspect a single niche product is not that appealing. How long will it take for Facebook/Google/Microsoft to get a good enough product and release it fo

I hope they do not buy it but I am afraid they will. I am somehow sick of these companies that do not generate enough profit to sustain themselves and have to be bought by oligopolies like Amazon.

I totally agree that's why I never install anything beyond what's there by default. I do not even try to enable stuff that is normally disabled. With that I learned to live with somewhat crappy terminal. Other than that I do not s

Quiet the contrary to be honest. Calling MS tech names and dismissing the great work of those that created PS is just a sign of immaturity or simply an OSS zealotry. Your bashing of PS either comes from ignorance or you simply did not inves
