And after you replicated PHP you come to the conclusion the templating language is as slow as hell. So you think: maybe we would need a compiler so we can cache the templates. The question ofcourse is: why would people rather use: {for

Maybe this could work like Tesla is trying to get auto driving working: When you say 'Hey Google / Siri / Alexa / whatever' a connection is set up to a real human who can control your house automation. Then the syst

This is already the case in Dutch streetcars. Every face is scanned and matched against a black list database.

I disabled the use of custom fonts and have to say that the material style of Google makes websites unreadable. Just like this framework does. This is because the span inside an icon has a huge font size. And they use ligatures for characte

I'm not sure it was faster, but it was completely different in a good way. I remember running 12 instances of a movie on beos. This was very slow, but on Windows the same trick caused my system to hang with around 6 movies. Beos just k

This is the exact reason why I think it might be even better to vote for 'Where should our resources go to?'. For example rank the following subjects: * Health care * Security * Climate Because now you might agree with

And the strange thing is: I can already start a VLC binary over the network via my file manager. A lot of people think we need to start rethinking the web. But as the poster points out: "but that’s what we have and here we go"

I think it's even more shocking they appear in answers. But then again this does only show they don't use prepared statements. You can't tell anything about vulnerabilities.

I'm sorry I was not very clear. I meant privacy as in company critical data like finance, price agreements and so one. There are also a lot of companies who don't like storing data in a foreign country. What if the government was

What about privacy? Our company doesn't use a cloud provider for that exact reason.

I see a lot of people complaining about what Facebook does. Censorship, fake news, manipulating your mood by changing what you see. Apparently nobody cares because they are still using Facebook. But why even use a tool that can misguide you

But didn't the video world already switch to Dell over two years ago because Apple could not keep up with high res video editing? I might be totaly wrong, but I think the real pro world doesn't look for a nice looking tool but for

What I find interesting in this PRO debate is that most +16GB users don't even use Apple, but brands like Dell, HP, Siemens and others. Apple is not stupid. They know the market. And imho the anger here on HN is mostly HN bias.

I'm not sure if it's apps alone. At least in The Netherlands I'm seeing multiple reasons for this (we are also seeing a spike in accidents): * Cars are too easy to drive. Drivers have no clue about speed and danger. This is e

Whatever you choose: for a CRM it's great to separate front end from the back end. So build a very good (REST) API, because CRMs tend to be connected to a lot of other systems. Edit: looking at what you already considered, maybe: back

I think the book 'Incredible Secret Money Machine'[1] by Don Lancaster is one of the best startup books related to this. For example this strategy: 'strategy secret - have: 0.834 employees'. Of course this book might be

To me this shows how hard it is to come up with good solutions for problems. I think both Trump and Clinton know what the problems in the US are. The difference is: Trump is naming all problems but doesn't provide real solutions, Clint

One thing that is used to prevent bad situations is to place wide round columns before the exits. This will direct the flow around the columns creating a little more time for people behind the column to go thought the exit and remove some p

I think the way to go is to create a mood board / app style guide / (whatever you like to call it) that shows the design of elements. So you will have the design of buttons (all states), fonts, font sizes margins, and maybe even o

I think you overestimate Steve Jobs. What goes up must come done. It's very normal for a growing company to see a period of loss. Even invincible empires died as history tells. Of course Steve Jobs created a big company. But it doesn&#
