I see this complaint often here, but I don't get it. Is some Linux driver not working? You can't use the mic, Wi-Fi etc? Linux just works fine on my machine, and also for a large user-base.

You might have heard by now that Windows 10 now comes with a full Ubuntu-based Bash shell that can run Linux software. Guess that covers your use case well!

If you're an iOS/Mac developer, there's no alternative. If you want an alternative for graphics work (or other development), try Windows. For other web development, in general, you'll be able to work well with Linux. Kee

Yup, I don't agree to such binary classifications either. Still, an interesting/important thing to keep in mind. (The comments on the article page are interesting.)

Young software developers scope out the projects (time required to develop a project) very differently from older engineers. Seems like the industry has forgotten the role of the QA engineer! With experience, you know that you need time for

I too considered ReSwift for my last iOS project, felt it would be an overkill, so didn't use it eventually (I've worked with React/Redux). Though I inculcated a Redux like approach into the App directly and it seems to be wo

True. People flocked to Twitter to hear general opinion, which the press didn't provide. That is changing. They have also been controlling the trending #hashtags; trying to channel only certain type of discussion.

Exactly, I want to look at the screen continuously with my fingers feeling the keyboard. Too much eye movement and distraction from the main task. Personally, this will just slow me down.

If their are less than two USB ports on the new Macbook pro, I'll be going for the last years version. Magic toolbar doesn't excite me - never used the similar function keys on PCs, even when I had them.

Lot of very fancy photographers use GIMP exclusively. It's more about the workflow (and marketing). If you're used to GIMP, you won't find Photoshop all that easy and vice versa.

What if this backlash against Sugar is as extreme as the initial marketing? What if 50 years on, people come back to say, "the generation that endlessly promoted tasteless food and took away the sweetness". Is there a proper study
