I don't think it is just a preference for system files and application files. For documents, sure. Think about an application that tries to find the settings file. Which tags should it use in the search? How does the user know that no

Aren't scripting languages normally JIT:ed nowadays? Js has been for years but I thought both Python, PHP and Ruby were working in that direction. That sounds like all the major ones to me.

I think the article was about making it easier for users. It may not be easy anymore if they have to use directories AND tags. Or it may work, if the only files they normally tag are their documents. Tags have a problem with names. How do y

Sounds like a really bad idea for tools like mv and rm. Suddenly you have moved or deleted much more than you thought. Unless you support guids or similar also but end users are normally really bad at reading and writing those. It is very e

I think Sweden and Denmark has the same level. They seem to take turn on which is the highest with 0 1% or so difference. Of course, they are further to the north end of Europe and may as such be a less suitable choice.

For prototyping TDD may be waste. If you are just trying different ux and different logic it may not help to test. For almost everything else I think it helps.

I think webassembly may be a solution to many of the problems with installing tools. We would need an npm like manager for all the tools/libs.

I think sql is a bad fit for front end code in js. We may have ended up with another fight over ORMs. The Vietnam war of computer science as I think it was called.

I think availability and price are the most important factors for the consumer market. If AMD can deliver a lot of chips with lower prices and same performance they might take a larger part of the market.

I find that analogy very bad. It would be more like you buy a Sodastream (that can make carborated water). When you want to refill it you have to go back to Walmart. You are not allowed to go to any other store, including Sodastream. Even i

My music is actually flac... But I think a lot of people have mp3's. When I read about ripping cd's to something it is usually mp3 or flac that is wanted.

I would start with separating the frontend and backend, as some others have suggested. I would probably use react but could try svelte or vue also. In the start you can mock the backend or have a memory-kept version of it. For backend (the

The west uses more resources per capita than the world as a whole. If all parts would try to use as much the resources would not be enough. We might deplate the food resources, oil, gas and also cause irreparable damage to the environment.

I think there are some really big differences when you walk down the list (at least in the last TechEmpower benchmarks I've looked at). It could be a factor of 10x or 100x. It might even be 1000x between some slow solutions and the fas

Agree, that MS is working on performance and can show it on TechEmpower benchmarks is great. I also think some top performers are using special ways to be that fast but if you move down a bit in the list there are probably more realistic im

Isn't computer users a tiny part of all Apple users? They could probably just kill that part and make enough money on iOS anyway.

Rust seems to be a lot safer than C or C++ but I don't really understand why a documentation system must be written in a low level language. Why not use C#, Java, Go or something similar? Most users can't really need extreme perfo

Oh, I remember old versions of SQL Server, they took ALL the memory on the machine. Did not work well if you tried to run something else at the same time.
