Rare in Europe? I'm looking out of my window in central London and there are at least three squirrels arguing about brexit or something. In warmer months, I need to be careful not to kick one of them as I go by on the sidewalk. They ar

A Surface Go, and a Surface Pro X. It depends on the day. The Go is underpowered but much more comfortable to hold and use as a tablet.

I had to use Acrobat Reader on a Mac to work with a book publisher because the comments they were attaching to the manuscript didn't work the same on Apple Preview. PDFs don't behave exactly the same everywhere for things that goe

Congratulations to the team but more than a year after the Surface Pro X shipped and there is still no way to build desktop applications for aarch64 using dotnet/vs2019 on the local machine. Windows on ARM has no native support for WPF

thanks for the kind words <3 As for distribution, you can still distribute stacks and people who have livecode can run it without fuss. That still works. One unique feature from livecode is its ability to cross-compile a standalone and I

Sorry, that article is from 2019, I don't work there anymore so I can't tell. I'm a customer though and have been developing with the language since forever, what we usually do when we want such answers is to post to either t

Many decades ago, macintosh prices were so high in Brazil that it was cheaper for me to fly to Miami for a weekend, (regretfully) watch the phantom menace, cheerfully watch the mummy, buy the damn mac, fly back, and pay duties at the airpor

The problem with that vision is that people break/lose phones a lot more often than laptops. We tend to carry your phone all the time with us, that leads to it being potentially exposed to way more dangers than our laptops. What happen

Heck, when I was a kid in the 80s in Brazil I thought Mafalda was Brazilian. It took me some time to learn that he was from Argentina. That is how common it was to find strips in our schoolbooks.

ARM was launched as a joint venture between Acorn, Apple, and VLSI. I believe that since day 0 Apple had perpetual access to the IP.

That may be true but when dealing with book discovery nothing beats going to an actual book store and browsing. Human curated isles and shelves, people to talk to, an environment that fosters curiosity. That can't be replaced with clev

Many here don't get the big picture. This acquisition makes total sense for Oracle. They'll be able to milk those influencers by charging TikTokers by how many cores they have on their phones and video audience size. </s&g
