Mac keyboard user here. I considered this one a while ago, but the fact that it doesn't have an ESC key and also no function key row still holds me off. What's your experience with that?

While I share your frustration to a degree, I think what you say might signal to other people that what they do now doesn't matter anymore. This might make the situation even worse, which isn't necessary IMO. We obviously already

Yes, you describe exactly the kind of house I live in. The problem with the upper floor is that there's a skylight which you can't shade. The sun can shine on the floor (with the floor heating underneath) and warm it up all day. Y

We have similar rules here in Germany. I live in a fairly modern, well isolated house. To comply with all these requirements, we build more and more houses with floor heating here. It's easier to efficiently heat that way using heat pu

Don't give up so quickly. Where there's a will there's a way. I am not saying that it is likely going to be pleasant (as indicated above), but I don't think it's the right thing to just call this unsolvable. It&#x27

A lot. Even if we start now, it will be a long time before our actions have any effect. And since we don't start now, and probably won't soon, again, a lot I'm afraid.

Not only that. It also increases ambient temperatures, which adds to the local heat amplification already occurring in big cities due to dense concrete buildings and streets.

Yeah, it's so much of a problem and so badly designed that the whole web runs on it every day, enriching the lives of billions of people and providing them with access to valuable software. You know, I guess that's why I come to t

The first prototype was designed in 10 days. The language itself underwent several iterations and I think it's not fair to say that it was "designed in two weeks". Other languages (and newer versions of JS) compile to ES5 so

The argument you make is quite popular. I'd say adoption would only be lower because there's competition that's also MIT licensed. And if that wasn't there, every framework author would be better off (e.g. in a public-pr

Vue.js is one of the most used JavaScript frameworks out there. If this was a commercial project, his income would be magnitudes higher. Yes, $20k a month is comfortable. But is it appropriate given the popularity of Vue and considering how

Wait, how do you know it won't contribute economic value? Maybe it doesn't do so today, but it may very well do so tomorrow. New projects need investment. When somebody spends their time on pursuing an endeavour that they think

With commercial/proprietary products, value is usually created by establishing a win-win situation: You as a customer buy something, because its value is above the price you pay for it. Pricing then essentially is about finding out w

It seems rather hard to find a legal way to outlaw the business model. I wonder whether there's a way to make spying so unprofitable that the business model simply isn't attractive anymore? Legislation that would force businesses

As an EU citizen I am quite skeptical regarding that one. But I have high hopes that US regulators won't make the same mistakes.

Not surprised, but I am afraid regulators will implement rules that would harm small businesses and startups much more than they would hurt FB. On the other hand, the market seems to be pretty much finished anyway. Unless someone comes up w
