   Well, it seems Microsoft is doing similarly with Typescript, except instead, waiting for the spec to catch up. I like both ideas.

   What does "former SkyDrive, Microsoft is at it again" mean? They lost a trademark case in UK and had to rename.

   Yes, things are perfect now. Don't change anything!

   Here, Here! In the end, more knowledge will lead to more peace. It sounds hokey, but clandestine infinite historical data storage can only end in disaster.

   Nonsense. Everywhere you turn, people are now aware of the issue. Whether we force long-term change is up to us. Snowden did more than his share.

   Yes, this is really huge! People who have been in denial or assumed they would never be able to pull this off (like me) are now aware. Naivety is no longer an option.

   I was going to make a wiseacre remark about how my work frowned on bringing pot plants to work, but I know what you mean :). I work out of my home office now and love being surrounded by plants.

    I honestly cannot relate to this at all. I have not had Windows drivers issues in years, up to and including Windows 8.1.

    Yeah, so nothing nefarious can result from this puny program.

    "...swing an enterprise away from..." implies they are already there. They are not. The question should be reversed,"What offerings conclusively swing an enterprise away from Windows?", and the answer is not much (so far

    ''The devs love it and it makes me happy.'' Not all devs. Microsoft tools have contributed to a long, successful, and enjoyable career for me, and I have yet to find an IDE as nice as VS (any contemporary version). The M

    I think x-y scalability would be easier/more versatile/easier to locate than an ever-enlarging circumference.

    Thank you Edwin Snowden. In the end, you have made us more free.

    You really do not want to be explaining Javascript to my mom and pop, or most others. (And yes, your parenthetical case at the end? It happened to me in just the last two weeks; coincidence, yes, but it did.)

    If you use it, and a few in your network use it too, it can be very useful, both to find opportunities and to see who might be available. Most people change jobs every few years, and this is just another data point used to stay informed. If

    Is price really how folks decide which to buy? Even if a couple hundred dollars separates them, it does not change my choice.

    If you work remote, you ''really'' need your own hotspot. It is well worth the extra $30/month.

    Yes, because our government is there by our voluntary action. If we find our government is making us do things involuntarily, we can change it.

    It's simply low-class and adds nothing. Extra words from an author that cannot make a point without pointless, useless, extraneous, immaterial, unrelated, redundant extra words.

    We like to travel (most widely in Central America)and always have, over the last three decades. And we do not generally go out of our way to stay in resorts or spend money wastefully. One way too common problem with coming across "shoe-stri

    Yes, and the people who own the "mountains" and cabins will love having you around, and they are even better armed than most city-dwellers. And don't think the National Forest Service will take kindly to squatters either. In our modern-day
