Is google really betting dart will take off? Because I don't see microsoft/apple/mozilla supporting it in the future. But of course dart can still be a cofeescript competitor.

A 3D printer itself is not interesting for most people. What is interesting is the marketing you can do with its sub-products. - lego machine that lets you create your own legos? check. - style-it-yourself house furniture? check. - toys/dol

Is iOS 6 really a disaster (honest question)? Isn't it selling like hot pie? The general layman is really annoyed by theses problems? Does anyone have numbers?

Yes, I know Java is behind every other language but speaking as someone who is stuck with Java in the workplace I heartily welcome these changes.

I hardly believe people are saying "screw google, I'm using bing", I think the numbers have more to do about defaults, your grandpa/aunt opens IE and bing is the default search engine.

My bank uses java applets to "secure" it's web interface, most banks in Brazil use java applets. I should be worried...

Now Playing: Bach - Air ("on the G string"). Coming up next: Justin Bieber - As long as you love me. I think you algorithm needs some adjustment, otherwise nice concept.

I like the style of this guy. He is right, clojure won't be the last programming language (and it's my favorite language), the last/100 years programming language will be an artificial intelligence.

"One of the things that’s interesting is we actually have more people on a daily basis using mobile Web Facebook than we have using our iOS or Android apps combined." That's a hint of how crappy those native facebook apps are. It's barely u

Nice try Microsoft. But if you really need to create a contest to prove your search engine is better you're probably desperate.

I think this is about the creativity not technical prowess. A delayed video is nothing new, use it to send a message about drink and drive is.
