Most people have a car, not an RV. And when these people chose theirs, was it "fair" comparing a car that cannot sleep 4-6 people to an RV that can?

That's perfectly fine. You can get it today from Samsung, or maybe soon from Google. My argument is that Leatherman is not going to sell anywhere remotely to the level of the combination of purpose-made tools that it seems to incorpora

A phone could be a mediocre PC. In my opinion, it will not gain any significant market share competing against other PCs -- mediocre ones, good ones, great ones, and "insanely great" ones too.

The problem with this idea is that it's unattainable. Let's start with something simpler: a living room. There's no universal design that would fit just any living room. The layout and the set of furniture that would work for

There is tremendous value in git, however you need to take into consideration the fact that 100% of the people and companies who pay GitHub (and thus, generate value for Microsoft) have the option of just using git without GitHub, for $0 .

It doesn’t matter. You’re not trying to recreate anything. Your brain is just wired that way already. You’ve got it from your parents, who got it from their parents, all the way to our predecessors in Africa.

Homo sapiens is a genus full of anxiety, as our ancestors who didn't "worry about tomorrow" either died from hunger, or got killed by those who did. Anxiety is an evolutionary feature.

I guess you've missed my point, which is: I don't work for my phone. My phone works for me. As such, I shouldn't find myself in the situations where I have to create the optimal conditions for my phone , but rather my phone

Modularity hasn't been the proclaimed goal for the Pro line, as far as I can remember. Granted, they were modular once. Today, not so much. The RAM is literally sitting on the die of the chip that includes the CPU and the GPU. This a

That’s just the same “my pip is too slow” problem which some people don’t have. I work in a place with 200 developers, and 99% of pip usage is in automated jobs that last an hour. Shaving a couple seconds off that will not provide any tangi
