I remember a local company a decade ago where they were obligated to delete part of their data on fridays just to test all the backups and procedures. At the time I thought it was completely nuts. I probably still think it's at least a

Why would they provide the source code and export abilities? Do you get access to the source code of facebook, twitter, gmail...? What exactly would you be exporting or syncing if it uses contacts that are already in your address book or fr

Listening to these comments one would think Dropbox is the worse company in the universe and we have a thousand alternatives. But then time goes by and people are still using dropbox and nobody talks about the alternatives. Another point is

Here I agree very much with you. With stuff so complex I can't imagine going through all that code. That's why I don't get people saying "if only I had the this or that source code".

No, you missed my point. I'm perfectly clear why Jonathan Blow made it's own engine and why anyone who's capable of that would want the same thing. I was talking about the article and about some members of the game community

My point was actually something else. On one hand it seems they've been struggling with Unity on a big project (where source might have helped) and on the other she said how they made this little app with their own little engine. If yo

I'm a bit confused about this article. One one hand Unity is criticized because it's a black box. The project was complicated, early days of VR and so on. "It was not fun. It was well worth the high rates we charged. It didn&

Coming from a semi-security IT background I always assume there are forces out there who see everything (in the great scheme of internet things). It doesn't make it better any way. Just helps me cope with how everything is screwed up t

Wine and linux drivers will never be good enough to play games. You might as well install windows 7 in a vritual machine. And this whole thing about spying... you can install O&O ShutUp10 which helps a lot but on the other hand, if you&

This! Exactly this. When Apple is doing it that's fine but when Microsoft does it then they are awful. And yet you still get to use tons of old software on w10. I still remember when El capitan came out last year and xcode stopped sudd

I see a lot of articles about who is or isn't Snowden, what he did, where he was and where he'll go. But I don't see anything about the NSA and what's going to change with PRISM. A lot of noise about him just to hide the

Steam ported on linux is one thing. Games, specially AAA titles ported on linux is a completely different argument.
