Community of whom? Active developers or passive users? Development and usage of a product are not the same thing. ^_^ Yes, it has grown, and now it is going flat. Try to visualize the trend - imagine a bell curve (the only type of curve h

That is nice explanation. As our ancestors used to say - Clarity is an evidence. ^_^ There is another simple point - who on earth will ever publish a study which proves that the whole ready food and fast food industry makes us sick, that th

May be its time is just over? I mean that the time of personal CMS or blogs or just small personal sites is definitely over. For Drupal - they got lost momentum, lost a lot of active developers, lost fans, lost community. The game, when eve

I think this predisposition may be not for equality but for cooperation. We have empathy, we have child care hard-wired and we have some sort of protection against cheaters, to benefit the whole community. (it is not a cultural invention, i

Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep is really good book. The movie is also nice, but it is almost independent masterpiece in itself. These dresses of Rachel, these rainy streets. Never mind. Btw, A Scanner Darkly is also good novel by Phili

Erlang isn't superior just because its VM is faster and well-designed for high throughput. It is superior because it is functional, which means, while it's possible, less state, less undefined behavior, less crashes, less bugs. Because it h

Is this situation somehow related to 'improper' coverage of recent airbnb's issues at the time of its 1 billion valuation? ^_^

IOS vs. Android is almost the same story as Win 2000 vs. Linux 10 years ago, don't you see? Community of active developers, not mere consumers, is what matters. At least I believe it is Google's strategy. ^_^ And fragmentation issues will s

Too late, no momentum, no real innovations. Just one Javascript/node.js hype is not enough to push to the market a new product, that should compete with iOS and Android. Try to imagine how big Android is today and what momentum it has.

That is really nice mix of several genres - anime, video games, that new crazy trend to design everything like screenshot from a ZX Spectrum game, and, of course, that vocal and drive. Really nice work of a modern art. ^_^
