Care to elaborate what makes a German corporation so different?

Ok, let's take a hypothetical (though, VERY close to what I've seen). You're a SAAS company. Not a startup, a medium-size company that's been around for 20+ years. Your core software is close to 15 years old. It's 2

Or, one could argue that Ecuador changed the deal when Sweden finally took them up on the offer. (I don't have a dog in this fight, I just find the whole situation interesting.)

Me too :). As I've gotten older (34 now), I keep moving further and further out, hoping to capture my own Walden experiences. So far, I've only had courage to get to the edge of the suburbs :(.

It took me a second to know what book you were referring to. I've never seen it called that. Every mention I've ever seen of it (and I live in the US), it's Das Kapital .

How so? The list is only useful in the sense that it gives someone who wants to explore the progression of American culture(s) through the years a starting point.

Why is this linking to a Washington Post article that is nothing more than reposting content from Reddit? How is this not just click-baity spam? Edit: Original Reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/history/comments

So, I'm supposed to trust someone I've never heard of, and just take their word for it? The fact that the site allows one to enter credit card details over plain HTTP would be my first clue not to trust this cert.

Exactly, Xamarin's value proposition is enterprise and medium-large software vendors already on the .NET stack that don't want to have to learn Java and Obj-C and have two codebases.

"Would be nice if calling an async void method directly threw a compiler warning to make this completely clear." With VS 2015 and Roslyn, you can easily achieve this. In fact, there's already sample code to do this in the ros

I don't think so. The inverse, 93% of razor cartridges, aren't from them. So you're far more likely to not even have one friend who uses them.

I'm not sure how Apple does this, but with the Play Store, you have 15 minutes (I might be wrong on the time) to get a refund after purchase, so that you can make sure it works on your device, that it is what it says on the box, etc.

Why does it need to be worse to deserve attention? To paraphrase Office Space, do we really want to do the bare minimum?

Actually, I was thinking, what's up node? Each dependency keeps a private copy of its dependencies? How messed up is that? Or am I just reading that wrong?
