"XXXX really is shaping up to be the year of the linux desktop" Damn, if I have a dollar for every time I hear that phrase :-) Joking aside, I think either MS initiative with WLS or ChromeOS with Linux container could be the sol

Or, maybe MS finally realizes that "Customer centric" is/will be the mantra to gain back the trust they have lost, you know.

I can’t remember how many times I have given Linux (Ubuntu, mint, etc) a try on a laptop since 2008. I am just tired of random regressions after an upgrade and spent a few hours every months to fix (frantically google if I would call).

I’m debating the possibility of moving out of MacOS and just get a Windows 10 Surface device. I don’t mind the Windows UI but feel like WSL may not be adequate for me. With this rate of change inside MS OS team, I won’t be surprised when on

If this is OK for you, I guess you are also OK with strangers double-dipping shared sauce dishes. It's funny that this turns into a Seinfeld episode "The Implant" :) "Timmy to George: That's like putting your whole

I have to ask myself a question: has Wikileaks been “fair” when it comes to obtaining sensitive documents from other state governments vs. the United States? For example, is there any leaks from China or Russia?

They could use the info collected from users who happening to have state secrets (def-cons, state employees, etc...). The bottom line is that the Chinese could use this fact to blackmail those users to cough up what they know in exchange fo

It is a title inflation. I look around recently and see that most of my team-mates are now senior SDEs. Everyone of them has been working professionally 3 - 4 years max. When I joined the company 10 years ago, it would take a tremendous eff

Apparently a tough chicken and egg problem for them: not having enough money to print so they stop accepting new subscriptions and hence will not getting any more funding. I really want to pay for their print magazines.
