I get the feeling that the core Internet protocols (in the 80s and early 90s) were built by people who were like 75% sysadmins and 25% developers/system architects. Typically sysadmins employed by US universities. (I don't want to

No, but quite a lot. "Overseas Trade Statistics. In July 2016 the value of exports (EU and Non-EU) decreased to £23.9 billion, and imports (EU and Non-EU) decreased to £39.7 billion, compared with last month. Consequently the UK is a n

Quite a few UX/design people who have actually gone through education/training (as opposed to learning by doing) seem to suffer by an extreme form of process overload. It makes sense I guess. It's really easy to teach process

Aren't Nintendo rumored to get back to sorta-ROM cartridges with their upcoming NX console? (The cartridges would be made of strictly speaking rewritable flash memory.) They seem to care about loading times....

Wouldn't the next logical move would be to switch to fast Flash memory that can move a GB/s or so? At the moment loading times seem to be bottlenecked by hard drives and optical drives. Flash memory is still about a magnitude chea
