What bothers me is that in theory there should not be any trade-off here. I mean, programming languages and developer tools could be easy AND with high performance.

Yes, or Kickstarter. The point is that to actually validate a product idea, potential customers should actually pay, or show a real interest in paying, for that product. Otherwise, it's not validated. Disclaimer: never tried, but it&#x

Something I would like to be able to understand/know/study is how logic programming languages are implemented and how their runtime looks like.

Imagine a reusable rocket, like the SpaceX one, but bigger and being able to reflight in, say, one week. If in every flight there were a satellite + space tourists, going to the space would be much more cheaper, and it's feasible I

I was proposing the sale of a nonexistent product, but making clear that it doesn't (already) exist and telling properly how it will look like. Also, this product should be feasible to do in, say, less than a month. So, it's kind

Really? Maybe the way I didn't write it didn't imply it, but I actually meant that you always had to make very clear that the product doesn't exist yet. You are selling the concept of something you are or you will be working

Instead of building an MVP and then trying to sell it, there are people who suggest: 1-Think of an idea. 2-Make a simple landing page with a mockup or something. 3-Try to sell the product. And by selling the product I mean actually selling

Copying Office and making it a webapp with less features is not killing Office. Not even close. Microsoft Office is legacy software. Its killer won't have anything to do with, it will be totally different. For example, Slack. I mean, k

As a company, Tesla would have interest in focusing on high-end cars (with high margins). But, on the other hand, their vision implies making Tesla cars affordable.

Then just fork Android, but in a way that let them build their own ecosystem. Otherwise they are dead.

They "only" have to offer an Android runtime. Maybe an Android fork would do better.

Microsoft never had an ecosystem of applications. Samsung would, if offered an Android runtime and made that developers resubmitted their Android apps to their own store. Samsung has enough market share to force them to do so.

Samsung should ship their phones with Tizen instead of Android. In the long term you are dead if you don't control your own software. They could build a "Android bridge" (an Android runtime for Tizen) and partner with the mai
