I have used the feature in the maps app. I have a simple old wacom tablet, which is not the same as "drawing on the screen", but I have a preference of this input method and note taking. If i'd have more suitable hardware, pr

It is not simply touch screen they are mentioning. It is "inking capabilities", stylus based drawing on the screen. The ad is not a good one as for example it was not clear for you. On the other hand people already know basic wind

Not surprised: these products have only seen press release. In my bubble they were not available on any products, not to mention costs.

My story has nothing to do with the facts about nuclear power. The moral of the story is about socialist dictatorships, the lack of free speech and free flow of information. The fact that you very subtilely called me a nazi (I had to google

Hydro is not an option at many places. Also dams also have negative environmental impact, which is often simply ignored. Fusion will work eventually, but currently it is in the constant "we'll be there in 30 years" since the

This is not true in this form. There were unsafe soviet designs, but also there were unsafe western designs. Soviet designs were not all categorically unsafe. The design used at Chernobyl was a problematic design, but still many layers of h

The interviews are interesting. I was a kid those days, and my mother keeps telling me that diary products were suddenly put on a sale (before the news release). I live in Eastern-Europe, in the former Warsaw Pact bloc. My father worked in

Also where this geology is present that is usually far away from the places where it is economic to deploy wind-turbines, and often from where it is economic to deploy solar panels. Also, what "greens" often ignore: these giant st

Actually the central planners did plan backups and alternatives for everything. With all its flaws even the SU was not so flawed to let total idiots make every economic decision. Just think of Mig and Sukhoi, for a simple example. Or NPO-Sa

If you need illegal immigrants, paid absymal wages, and not subject to worker protections (aka. slaves) to produce food, then you are not feeding yourself. Your slaves feed you. Another alternative is buying the food from the market, from o

They could exist that way in the past, and they could feed the country, and even provide a surplus. What has changed in the laws of nature, that it is no longer viable, to produce food without importing slave workforce? I thought the USA ha

I agree with the traditional view about deflation. It is bad, especially for the workers, who have almost no money to save, thus they do not get any of the benefits, but they take the most burden, as they must spend almost all of their inco

I believe that the deflationary nature of cryptocurrencies is the real problem in replacing money. Also the fact that a trail is left behind transactions is unlike it is with cash. This property is cool for the government, but the users may

Usually a claim is most effective if it has some substance, for example some proof. Could you please provide some references to those innovations instead of shaming another culture, who is remembering one of its lost ones? Also the knight

Java is also nice. I like it very much. (I'm a C# guy.) Java is pretty modern, has quirks, but you can be pretty productive, not a particularly bad language. Helps you get stuff done. Awesome tools, pretty good concurency support. It i

The idea is not totally bad, but I have come across some bad implementations. The worst is when there is no visual progress feedback, to know where I am in the filling process. Also for me this is worse than a single form. At some point a q

Herring is also delicious when pickled in vinegar with onion, and also in some canned varieties. At least I love it.

I'm sorry to hear that. There should be CC available, but to be honest I have only watched the Hungarian version in full length, and only knew about the existence of the English version. I hope you still find it interesting.

There is a nice documentary on the history of the demoscene, with some introspection to the creative process behind a demo/intro. It was made by a Hungarian team, who has other interesting documentaries on underground culture. It is al

As one who has experience with multiple UI frameworks, and 2 years of SWT i can only say that it is on par with Gtk+/C Gui development experience. It is terrible, with those int constants all around the API, not groupped in any intuiti

No, it doesn't beat a screenshot. Their purpose is totally different. Screenshots (on a landing page) usually depict a view the creators think is important, and beautiful to show the visitors. A wiki to a screenshot is like a man page
