   I keep reading similar arguments and I wonder was there ever any piece of evidence to support it?

   Please try to refrain from ad hominem attacks. It doesn't help in any way to prove your point.

   I noticed that micro USB is better in this respect.

   Mods are getting too trigger happy? In fairness if you give random "trusted" strangers power to delete anything they deem inappropriate they will start abusing their power, that's in human nature.

   Yeah, he embraced the idea to never use black: http://ianstormtaylor.com/design-tip-never-use-black/ EDIT It looks awful in Chrome(Windows) but in Explorer it's OK... http://imgur.com/a/CA7Ow

   Except that it is illegal to collect IP addresses in some European countries (Switzerland for example). Here's the link: http://www.edri.org/edrigram/number8.18/collecting-ip-addres...

   Thank you for the example, it's interesting to see k/v storage used for caching. I'll keep it in mind!

    Great, thank you for the detailed overview. If you don't mind me asking, do you ever end up having problems with consistency? (I imagine it could happen if some data was written to 2 databases and the second one rejected the transaction.)

    Does it mean that in a single project you may use two different storage solutions? SQL DB for relational data and NoSQL for queues, heaps, etc. ? I'm asking because for me it is a kind of a paradigm shift, I have used plain files and SQL DB

    Thanks! I'm not really intimidated, I thought it was a bit comical that anything less then 10 years is not enough. On the "good enough" aspect the least I try to do is to unit test everything I publish.

    To be fair I know of programmers that hack their code until it works and then they forget about it. Next time they need to change something: take the ax and hack away...

    I'm actually currently in process of writing a small library, but I have only 6 years of experience. I'm frightened.

    Funny thing I even believed in it. After having failed the last interview I looked around and realized that there are many companies that do things that I consider more interesting than what Google does.

    I think that's a trade off you will have with an open system, still since I got my android phone I bought many more applications than I ever did on my PC. Having credit card tied to your store account makes it much easier.

    There's a comment from "President/CEO at OnLive" where he wrote that he donated 50K and will donate more if needed.

    I'd venture to say that there were many more flash sites then now. Web site developers had 2 years to move away from Flash.

    I've never used it, but it seems to be a very nice way to keep track of such things. Thanks a lot for the suggestion!

    It's not only core libraries, all the available libraries that your project depends upon will one day or the other have to be debugged. I mean I had to debug Hibernate and it was a pain, I can't imagine debugging something written with adva

    It's funny my boss was thinking of trying Scala, but the more he learned about it the more he became disillusioned. I remember reading somewhere that although you might decide to limit use of Scala language facilities (as there are too many

    I think the difference with Apple is that developers are not piggy bagging on Apple's infrastructure, but provide new kinds of services that Apple hasn't thought of. Then when these services prove to be popular Apple implements similar feat

    In Geneva(Switzerland) they tried to use military at protests some 20-30 years ago. Some people were killed, thing is military are trained to kill if they are being attacked. As far as I know they haven't used military personnel after that.
