I don't think that's what he's suggesting at all. We shouldn't automatically discount their statements, but we should start scrutinizing them very carefully before we make a call.

Right, but the context of the article was using them as examples of security experts. When you give examples to support a statement, you should give the best examples you can come up with.

I agree. The only thing preventing the Surface Pro from becoming wildly popular is the price. Its definitely worth the price, and I may end up with one myself, but most people simply won't spent that much on a computer. P.S. You guys s

I agree, now if it were the Boy Genius or one of the folks from the verge, it would be easily defensible. Anand was a great hardware reviewer. The only other reviewer I think of that compares to him would be Lisa from mobiletechreview.com.

If you decide to give it a shot, pay close attention to the policies and procedures that companies post. Facebook has refused to pay people in the past because they didn't use the framework/channels that they have provided.

I fully understand that Amazon invests in these types of projects because they are focusing on growth. The original claim was that hundreds of millions of dollars is a trivial amount of money for Amazon to spend even if a project is a failu

I can see how that could be the case. They wouldn't have had my $650 even two years ago, but its possible they would have had a better result than they did in 2014. In the future, I think Amazon still may have a shot at producing a dec

You should still be able to learn quite a bit with just the Chromebook. After reading the article, I'm thinking about getting one myself so I can get back into learning web development again. Did you end up buying the Acer C720?
