No offence, but inexperienced JS fanatics always do this because of some weird affectionado they have for the language itself. Otherwise, even a decently qualified CTO would have chosen to keep everything in Go from the beginning or might h

Absolutely. Look at facebook today. Back in 2010, everything had just the right amount of interactivity. Because, separation of concerns existed at the language level - HTML for structure and CSS for presentation, JS for everything else. Th

I like how towards the end they added the vanilla Apple mission control UI in there - which doesn't have any volume control at all just to prove their point. That really caught me off-guard and was funny af.

Frameworks do matter in the sense that a good, well-organized, well-thought out framework will always outperform a shabby one. And the throughput matters. But having said that - it's a fine balance. We moved one of our customers from a

I feel like the word "protocol", is just abused like it is a glorified marketing term. Kind of like how the word "hacker" was abused in everything else that had nothing to do with hacking. MCP was just a glorified way of

That's because cars are fundamentally hardware products, not software products. Yes, software powers the heart of it (ECU), but it is just another "part" in a million other parts, not the main central selling point of the car

First off, $150 more isn't a small amount to be considered "in-line" with the others. That's roughly 40% more. The difference is also Apple neither has the audio legacy of those companies nor the quality of those product
