I think this quote summarizes hackers today: ``[T]ime spent sweating memory is time you're not writing your app. The hard part is developing the experience is that you need to know when you need to care." Not having to worry about

How about a lower speed limit where jaywalking is permitted or where the risk of pedestrians running into the road is high? For example, you could almost drive at 65mph with certainty on a freeway, but you might have to drive at 25mph to gi

Talk about a SF startup from 50 years ago. Williams-Sonoma is still one of my favorite food retailers. Everything from sous vide to Hario coffee cone drippers, it has really made life much more delicious for me. With a market cap of $5.6B,

In the Portal 2 video game where the main character throws the erstwhile antagonist (now uneasy ally) GLaDOS computer "chip" into a potato, is that joke connected to this at all?

I love Raymond--he's got an erudite knowledge of Windows lore. The fellow delivers such good Microsoft standup that you can almost imagine the deadpans as he does them. Despite the constant head shaking directed at Microsoft, you can&#

I can attest that Visual Studio and Xcode can both feel laggy, especially with respect to C++ development and static analysis (Intellisense or whatever they call it). However, this may not be so much Microsoft's or Apple's fault

Thanks for all the examples where Microsoft pulled a Trojan. I totally agree. If Win32 embraces the Linux kernel calls to make Docker work without virtualization, is there a possible Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish plan? Or are businesses s

Microsoft did a partnership like this before with Apple (Microsoft Office) but it didn't turn out so well for Apple. Wondering what the outcome would be like with Satya in the driver's seat.

I'm not sure why you're reducing its worth despite 400 years since the letters and gospel were put together. Many exhibits in museums such as Taipei National Palace Museum might be what you call a "legend" or Chinese &q

To be honest, a human seeing it for the first time would have a hard time identifying Turkish Getups too :) Also, identifying good form--that's an app that could help a lot of amateur athletes.

Never, even at low speeds (this applies for cyclists, too). But apparently the argument is that motorcycle riders will approach their riding with more caution. To a certain degree, I will agree (when I wear less gear and no leathers, I rid

I'm sorry my initial analogy wasn't clear. When I meant self-taught, I met on the job vocational training as well as personal time devoted to pet projects. Hopefully, with the clarity added, you will find my analogy better.
