Not really the point - they have 5% market share with those B2B products, and a history of axing stuff that they don't think makes enough money.

I don't know, it really doesn't sound like a real CVE - maybe add some setting I guess for those worried? Others bring up good points, if your attacker can write to C:\ you probably have other issues. On top of that, it breaks com

saneclang, saneswift, (sanegcc?) cli wrappers around clang, swift which fix the insane porcelains of those toolchains. We built a million GUIs for these, why did we never build CLIs for bad CLIs?

So (had to look it up) Reader was infamously the shuttered project that first caused a lot of backlash...that went for 8 years. They closed it due to "declining usage" i.e. they could not monetize well. Play Music died after 9 yea

I think that's the point, they do not experience acceleration in zero g, which is the point of testing visual/aerial cues, which DO remain in free fall (electric fans, horizons). I'm fairly sure you just read this backwards,

Game Engines Suck. There, I've said it. Most 'games' are in fact interactive movies, with very little game in them. That's what Game Engines enable. I'm vote we stop calling them Game Engines and instead call them I

I rarely see a piece of art that is 'new' or interesting - if you check out an art forum, you see a lot of duplication, similar motifs. Nobody has innovated with art in a very, very long time. I guess you can argue stories are all

You'd be surprised the garbage overhead brings into an app architecture... These best practices really only make sense in large organizations, i.e. Conways law. After all, you can't really ask 100 developers to all add code to one

Hmm good points, but you also ignore the power costs here - using oscillators, open pins as thermometers and rf antennas requires additional power draw, not to mention modifying these devices may be nearly impossible due to their embedded n

To be fair I don't think this is really the same - if I understand correctly, app servers were always a poor approximation for actual co tainers. Browser containers may be better, but you share the same problem with app containers that

Actually the other protocols all exist, and work fine, thanks. The major exception was high bandwidth communication, where it remains cost prohibitive to do without scale - video has come a long way, to be sure, but large image, audio, vide
