They do have debt now, they took out loans worth tens of billions in US and a few other countries in order to avoid bringing in money oversea. I believe they're at 40-50$ billions in debt now. Yes, they have very low interest rates on

Amazing how fast Chrome grew in just 5 years. I think Firefox will get its mojo back in a year or two as they're simplifying their Firefox product by removing unused features, focusing on the core (e10s), and working on new APIs like w

Wow, thanks for blogging this as I never heard of i3 before and it looks amazingly productive. Makes me want Apple to take the Split View further to the next level on both iOS and OS X, turn it into a tiling WM like i3.

I agree, we're looking at one tiny part of the big picture. However, to get to the clean energy endgoal, we have to start doing multiple things at the same time, which is what the article was talking about from the European manufacturi

No, it didn't. The title is misleading, AMD is announcing tools to make it easier to port from CUDA. Not the same as supporting CUDA, which is owned by nVidia only. Unless nVidia open-sources CUDA, AMD cannot do anything for it. The ar

First, I agree that we are driving the cause behind the recent climate change issue. However, I'm not quite sure how they can prove Exxon lied about this if climate change itself is something that can't be proven easily as true in

I agree, it depends on how the question is framed. They won't be happy if they know where it is coming from. I've met folks who would not be happy to know their tax money would be going to "lazy" folks.
