Is aging really a problem? On the individual level it is but as a whole the world population has exploded in the past century. Would we have enough resources for everybody if the life expectancy will increase to say 100 years?

I've wasted so many hours trying to convince Windows user that they don't need any passwords for gitolite, they just need to check that Pageant is running and has the right key loaded :D

Yep, gitolite is awesome, it's so lightweight you can use pretty much any leftover PC to host repos for an entire company. I also use cgit for a fast and easy git web interface and ReviewBoard for code reviews. If I remember correctly

The 9.7 iPad is too big for me, I mostly use my iPad mini for reading. The 7.9 4:3 screen size is perfect for that. Android tablets have AWFUL standby battery efficiency, I use my iPad mini for a full week with a single charge!

No one would bother writing Electron app if there was no demand. Most users, (even tech savvy users) prefer using Electron Slack instead of keeping the webapp open in a browser.

Development time needed to create desktop apps (for Windows, Mac and Linux) given that there's already an existing webapp: - using Electron: 1 month - using QT: 2 years

One issue would be the webcam placement, it's below the screen. If you get the XPS 13 don't make the same mistake I've made, don't waste your money on this POS http://accessories.euro.dell.com/sna/pr

If you get this laptop don't make the same mistake I made (I have the Skylake version). Don't waste your money buying the Dell™ USB 3.0 Ultra HD Triple Video Docking Station D3100 (which is not even a real docking station cause it

My thoughts exactly, instead of adapting planets for our current form we should try to adapt humans for extraterrestrial environments. We need to find a way to transfer our brains(or brain data) into a machine, then adapt this machine to

Please tell me again how this "new" Microsoft is so much better and more ethical than Ballmer's Micro$oft.

Oh look, Google's 67th messaging app attempt. I'm sure it's going to be a killer this time... Preset responses, seriously??? bwahahahaha, only a socially challenged googler could've thought of something like this.
