Apple knows it will sell on looks alone. So the hardware looks very good (maybe the best looking laptops in the world?). The screen looks very good (high res + great color). The keyboard looks great and some may even say that a hockey puck

I don't understand this comment. Why should adding features make an app crumble on a single server? I think the point is that good software is able to serve a lot of users on a single server. A great example imho is Blender. Features a

As a Dutch man owning a cargo bike I have no idea how they came to this conclusion. There are some stange parts of this study. For example: because the website Geenstijl is linking cargo bike owners to the party Groen Links it is suddenly t

Because it can easily be misused. For example: Trump is one of those people that can change the US into something you would not imagine a year ago. It's very easy to say that this wont happen but I also thought Trump would never become

The front of my car sometimes looks like a insect horror movie. What about airplanes? Do spiders end up at the nose of an airplane? Or are they pushed away by the pressure in front of the plane?

Tesla is not the only brand that creates electric cars. This is all about Elon making clames he could not make true. The danger for Tesla is that people don't want to wait for broken promises anymore and will choose another brand. Edit

I would say: every programmer should learn to talk to low level devices first. For example when you use an Arduino you program in a stripped down Java language, but you will learn a ton about how computers work because you learn about I

This. I would amost say: Don't use 'else' (if you can). I also would like to add that it helps to fail early. The article shows a null check for an add function. But the question is: why not throw an exception when the input

Today's cars are so much more complex than old cars. Yet almost all of them are much more reliable than old cars. I don't think simple == reliable. A wheel made of solid wood is very simple. But the choice of material is poor. So

But what if test and evaluation prove they are more reliable than tires filled with air? I understand what you are trying to say but maybe the same discussion happened when they started using air tires instead of solid wheels: "What if

That's the wrong question. A better question could be: Can we replace it with something better? Just like we are replacing combustion engines with electric engines.

After using Composer for some years I think these tips are good to think about: * Use full version numbers for your dependencies. * Include the vendor folder in your VCS. The last one I had to think about a lot but it's a real

It is believed that van Gogh was color blind[1] and that he saw all his paintings more faded than most people see them. If this is true we might see the picture as van Gogh saw it. [1] http://asada0.tumblr.com/post/1151

No it doesn't mean peer-to-peer here. It means that there is no one server but a lot and in fact the 'server' is abstracted away from the developer so he sees no server (serverless). I think Wikipedia has a nice explanation o
