Not true. Every (decent) journal has someone who goes through the typesetting process again is very time consuming. Whether that plus the review process, website maintenance etc it is worth £2,700 is a separate question.

Argument for the sake of argument. Please no.

"you swipe through 30 HN stories a day" I don't know who does that. I look at titles and decide which ones I want to look at. With tiktok, you don't know what's coming next, and normally it takes you at least one or

"I hate .NET/C#" With that, I doubt you are seriously here looking for answers... Windows 11 and Edge are aggressively pushing ads and are bad, but I have to point out that Windows 11 has a ton of improvements otherwise, so m

Why go as far as self-hosting, they should be all open source and IT admins will be able to fix bugs themselves. (Of course this is sarcasm, just the way you want it)

No point with arguing with these people. I have noticed that people love their operating systems, especially in the Mac camp, even if switching to a different operating system would make almost no actual day-to-day difference in experienc

Eh, that's not how it works. Web engines do a great job at providing accessibility for basic stuff, but to make an application and its content fully accessible, you would need to have accessibility as a requirement from the very beginn

"I don't want" That doesn't mean anything or change anything, sorry. Maybe you can refuse to use Teams provided by your employer and quit your job just because of that, but nobody else does.

I know it's not your main point, but I need to mention that the failure of Stadia does not indicate the failure of cloud gaming in general but the problem of Stadia itself. There are plenty of other cloud gaming options growing every d

Eh, most people looking at this don't consider dota 2 in the same bucket as the cloud gaming concerned here. It means Assassin's Creed played on Geforce Now or Forza Horizon played on Xbox Game Pass. My very loose definition is th

To put it in perspective, a new car typically has a 3-5 year warranty while a new phone has a one year warranty (unless the local law requires a longer warranty). btw Android is not an end product like a car and Google doesn't really &

Agreed. I don't know why "trailing commas allowed" is a plus -- it is not going to make things simpler or easy to maintain, and it is very questionable whether the added flexibility is worth it

Engineering is a matter of tradeoffs. With JavaScript, you get simplicity but lose strict typing (can be compensated with TypeScript), performance etc. Rust gives you much better performance but is more complicated to write. However, for a

Maybe your answer is correct but it is not useful, at all. It does not answer the question, like, providing real solutions.

Nonprogrammers used to use FrontPage or Dreamweaver to develop websites. Now they use things like Google Sites or Wix for that matter, which works well enough for a lot of individuals and businesses. This is a real thing that has been happe

Probably not the answer you were expecting, but you may want to consider getting an Xbox Series S (that is often on sale at $250 or even $200), plugin your mouse and keyboard and you'll have a great experience. Yes that is a "dedi

I agree with you. I don't think anyone who has spent enough time with React/Vue.js would want to switch to something like this. I cannot imagine what the code would like when you have a lot more components and nesting. I would wri

Yeah, if they cannot get even the "Hello World" example to be simple and straightforward, I don't know why anyone would switch from the status quo. It's a ton of added complexity.
