I wonder if someone has done (could do) an analysis of how much dip, the BSD+Patents License caused, in the adoption of React?

I like that there're companies like Mapbox and CityMapper challenging Google Maps and Apple Maps. But giving a blank slate to a user and having them input a text query when they open the App might not be the best idea. In my head I rem

It's so great that they shared all these findings: I hope the XCode team takes notice and fixes some of the nagging compile time and indexing issues!

A big (practical) problem is that you might not be around to take the clothes of the clothline in time and they end up 'roasting' for extra hours/days. Sunlight definitely does fade the colors.

Sunlight isn't an overkill. It's a great germ killer (You have to be cautious not to leave them out for too long, lest the UV/Heat damages the colours). You can use a lot of detergent to remove the last bacteria; but househol

There are other comments in here comparing react-native to Electron. Do you know if you could build Nylas Mail at the same pace with react-native? Will the binary size/RAM usage drop significantly on react-native?

The original blog post is from Oct 2016... can't reproduce the bug now. That's ok; not deceiving.

That's interesting. But I wonder if many product developers will be ok with a common view layer -- Android and iOS's UX and design language are different (Icon sizes, tab bar, back button... all that).

What a quandary: We see military weapons technology put to terrible use all the time, and yet, so much technology shows up in (US) military use first.

For other Indians, please stop bringing your regional biases to global forums. Also 'Malayam'. Really?

I like the pragmatism in this letter: "What the Unity8 team has delivered so far is beautiful, usable and solid, but I respect that markets, and community, ultimately decide which products grow and which disappear." Ubuntu has don

I hate to bring this up -- but I earnestly think that Apple would do better with a Product Manager at the top post. Tim did good work for the company in optimizing operations, however envisioning new products is a different ball game.

Looking at the last two years, it's difficult to be excited about this year's Apple Events. He did well in his role in Operations; but guess Apple needs someone from Products/Design division with a refreshing future vision.

Does it pack a tractor in? Who's gonna till the soil? Very click-baity. I can pack in all the required farming equipment needed for a 2 acre land in under $20,000 in India (including a good tractor!). And I get to chose what I want. $5
