   You think Shenzhen Cheapo Tablet Co., Ltd. will keep using them when they start charging them the full price? Hahaha! I think Intel underestimates the level of churn and ruthlessness of the market. This ain't no Wintel meal ticket.

   So apparently I've been to Hong Kong... first I've heard of it. Also there seems to be no record of my visit to Canada last year.

   The original offer was $40M, which only went up because CEVA big up the price.

   I would welcome a new Windows API to replace Win32. Not sure if they would ever expose it or continue with the old legacy crap.

   That doesn't solve the problem for commercial software and only works around the problem for open source. In fact I ran in to this problem today. We build on CentOS 5 in order to support some customers who still use it. Unfortunately w

   Loved his rant on glibc, etc. breaking stuff. I've been saying this myself for years. Really static linking is the only way to make a binary for Linux that will work on any distribution.

    We could have stub apps that download the latest code from the web (or use a locally cached copy), compile it for the local machine and pop up a native GUI. The local app could communicate with a server in the same way JavaScript client cod

    This blog post misunderstands the concept of "sufficiently smart compiler". He even links to the c2 wiki page for it, yet if he actually read it he would realize it has nothing to do with what he is writing about...

    I would really like Android to switch over to Musl and drop Bionic, and eventually also drop SurfaceFlinger for Wayland and use an upstream kernel. I can dream...

    I bought one, never got around to using it, and sold it a few years later. Like a lot of cool technology, it will go underused due to difficulty of use / lack of good, easy-to-use applications. And for all the things I want to do, it&#

    At least all transactions for purchased game items should have been logged in a separate database. There's nothing worse for a digital content company than forgetting who bought what.

    It's an organisational failure if a junior employee can bring down the company in a few clicks. No backups, testing on the production database, this is no way to run a company. Feel sorry for the guy who made a simple mistake.

    Try running some of the Chrome experiments, e.g. 100,000 stars: http://www.chromeexperiments.com/detail/100000-stars On my pretty high-end machine this runs very smoothly on Chrome and quite jerky on Firefox.
