For one, we could start programming efficiently and natively again instead of going through layers of interpreted languages and abstractions. Also, shared-nothing architectures are still scaling well for many workloads.

Who needs a tablet when you can surf on a reasonably sized phone/phablet? You know, the kind of size Apple doesn't sell.

Iterators can get very ugly. I like this when there is a need to access elem a lot inside the loop: for (size_t i = 0, iEnd = elems.size(); i < iEnd; ++i) { Elem &elem = elems[i]; // deal with elem }

Except for the iteration over the vector this would be the same in C++98.

Price is also part of the buying decision making process, e.g. choice.

I don't see how LG is struggling, they had a dramatic rise especially in Android smartphone market share. Are you thinking of other areas?

Spotify is very popular in Europe, I really wonder why people still buy albums when you can get access to a huge catalogue for a relatively small monthly fee. Of course some albums are not available but I guess it will improve over time.

Here's where Apple's resistance to larger screens (and bigger smartphones) also bites them: Larger phones can pack much larger batteries, leading to longer battery life (even despite the larger display, which does _not_ consume pr

Q1: Yes, it is fixed in 1.4.14 only. Q2: Cleanest would be to uninstall GnuPG and install latest from source. Make sure to backup relevant directories containing GnuPG related data (probably in your home - sorry I'm not familiar with U

They have quite some preconditions that need to be in place: - You must know the code locations of the instructions that you target exactly. I.e. you will need to get down to the exact cache line of the operation in the compiled binary of t

That's more than 700km per day. So given the speed limit it means you are spending most of the week in the car. How is this fun?

Great! One suggestion: Add a wikipedia link to the language that is displayed when the player gets it wrong, that way you can quickly read up on where it is spoken etc.

It is bad because in a column store each column will be stored in a different location, resulting in seeks on disk or cache misses in memory. In a row store the complete row will often be in a contiguous block of memory. It gets worse when

They tried very hard in the Samsung case to get a large portion of their offerings banned but the judge wouldn't have it. They also got HTC products banned from the US for relatively minor infringements.

While I agree that Samsung phones have quite a mishmash of features just for the heck of it, I think the picture in picture feature is quite nice and is something the competition (especially Apple) would heavily advertise had they come up w

Vtune and Zoom need to be mentioned, although they are not free. Vtune is even able to do power consumption analysis these days.

Great analysis and tenacity in hunting this one down :) Letting new compilers loose on existing codebases is always fun and you learn lots of things in the process, I can only recommend it. I debugged a problem once that also had to do with

Samsung meanwhile is already hard at work copying all those features, expect them to pop up in Android within the next 6 months. Parallax background will be first. It is quite ironic you would say that, since parallax background

Basically they are already doing that. The reason Apple is made the scapegoat here is probably 1) For publicity reasons, to make the public believe corporations are held accountable 2) To extort some lobbying money from Apple http://gigaom
