As an incubator, it will be judged on its results. One thing to note is that there's a lack of available and affordable space in Paris. I live in the middle-class suburbs, closer to the rural areas than to the center of Paris, and will

Well, I'm building a dating site as a hobby project. I could add a "Just try without an account" option but then, there's still a rather long form to fill to decide who the user should be connected with. Removing only tw

Of course they're taking over. We are provoking a massive extinction of species in the oceans. Jellyfish are the one group of species we have no use for, so they're taking the free space we give them while enjoying the disappearin

To have the honor to be a developer on their platforms, we have to pay Microsoft 49€ per year for Windows and 99€ per year for Windows Phone. That's the opposite of a bounty.

Same in France. It's all about acquiring knowledge that's only available in English. For example, I'm pretty sure that the only database systems documented in French are MySQL and PostgreSQL. Only those who can read English (

If one EU state offers you asylum, which shouldn't be too hard because your country is notoriously dangerous, then you can work anywhere in the EU. So you could get asylum from Italy or France, then move to Berlin when you have your pa

Well, developers can hire other developers, but we can't easily hire the accountants, lawyers and others (including HR, ironically). The big question is: how do we hire people from a field we're not competent in? But yes, at my la

Cars are way too dangerous. We accept the absurdly high number of injuries and deaths they cause only by lack of a better mean of transportation. I hope self-driving cars will have hyper-efficient safety mechanisms, especially to protect pe

Plus there is PHP's aesthetics. I can't help but see all PHP code visually unpleasing. Programming isn't just a technical task. It's also an art like writing novels. I'm not satisfied when the code I produce doesn&#

He's more of a CTO. "CEO of Microsoft" is a prestigious title. They could use it as an opportunity to pull a coup. Like offering to merge with Facebook and giving the title to Zuckerberg. It doesn't have to be with FB, a

This would have the same effect as refusing to give them the password: you end up in jail.

Yes, I was talking about expensive infrastructures in general. It would be crazy to start building the Hyperloop before some working prototypes have proven that it works. But the high-speed train has low risks of loosing money if highways a

But an Instagram has a high risk of failure whereas a transportation infrastructure is a very low-risk investment. The Hyperloop would be better compared with a huge Internet infrastructure like Google Search than with Instagram.

They don't care about design. If they did they would have created something original. Or at least they would have more than one source of inspiration to pick from. If they wanted to take the whole shape of OSX applications, at least th

WinRT is supposed to be a modernized version of .Net built with lightweight asychronous programming in mind. I haven't yet checked if this promise is bullshit. In my experience with Windows Azure, Microsoft seems to be moving deliberat

I remember a similar project from the French TV news. The airplanes were ultralight drones (no pilot and only as many passenger as taxis). I can't find the source.
