I think the brand and portal "product" could have been saved, but I agree the brand and portal could not save the current corporate entity. The brand and portal is a much smaller company than Yahoo of today and probably the curren

As I understood it he was saying the better way to prove Python 3 is good for creating high quality software might be to look at the high quality software already written in Python 2, rather than pointing out flaws in it - since all program

What "app" are you saying matters that couldn't be built as a chrome app? It's just a different platform. It could be argued it's a better platform than most operating systems and more similar to the smartphone app

That's assuming the code-base was still saved as a representation rather than a syntax tree that can be viewed in whatever way a given developer prefer. There's no reason that has to be the case. In fact intuitively i'd be in

She also insinuates that the floods in New Orleans were constructed to wipe out evidence of mortgage fraud around 1:16:55. There were several insinuations of this nature (regarding 9/11 and such) made in passing without (for presumably

That's just silly though, if you see a bad trend, make adjustments to buck it? Just because you're "still making a profit" doesn't mean you're doing well or even that you aren't on the road to disaster. An

Definitely true, in large part I believe this is heritage (older cities not necessarily built for massive numbers of cars) but also towns and cities just being smaller or "tighter" in general if that makes sense. I live on the sou

I thouroughly enjoyed the read so I suppose I should be on my way then. I struggle to see the purpose of a comment like this when a good chunk of the point of an algorithm/crowd driven news aggregator is that we don't have to defe

Companies don't get to pick and choose which laws they deem worthy of following. If you want the laws changed support an advocacy group. To let them off for blatantly ignoring legislation in a democratic society is setting a dangerous

As an old interlopers.net member it's been really fun to keep happening upon these little gem articles by Simon recently. This looks very interesting! Simon, if you read this I regularly have the lyrics to one of your ancient tunes pop

I don't think designers get design. In the same way that engineers over-engineer, designers over-design. The difference is when you over-design a user interface the end-user actually notices. In the same way that developers jump on t

I thought it was worth reading, initially I had my doubts about the veracity of the claims by the person being interviewed, I imagine some of this is as much the writers fault as anything else. Toward the end it provided some insights that

Having looked at the polymer page I see what you were going for and I can even agree with the above poster who commended your clever implementation of the animations. You even have a point saying it's on the developer. I just can'

How about don't slow down navigation to play an animation. Function over form. Every time. Never artificially slow your user down for the sake of "pretty". Pretty is subjective, snappy is objective and appreciated by everyone

Speaking as someone who grew up in Sweden I have a hard time believing the EU government is "less corrupt" than ours. Removing the ability to legislate (on anything) effectively forces every country to a lowest common denominator
