I Think WP and FirefoxOS are the two big players in the low-end smartphone market, and the victory of one of those depends on that segment of phones. WindowsPhone8.1 already allow developers to use html5/js to create native apps (using

Also, they are creating new cash cows to replace the old ones. While maybe the windows licenses is no more the big one, now azure is becoming it, Xbox(/devices) division is finally becoming profitable, office license model is being rep

Correct me but, atm, it would be possible to use the keyword "let" to declare a local variable with a block scope if I remember well, isn't it?

Are we talking about windows for their workstations or for their servers? In the first case I see a LOT of devs using windows as main os, I can easily say the big part of them use it. My last job was in a full lamp 3yo startups and ironical

At that moment they already released part of .NET, asp.net and azure. I think you wanted to say that the "change" was made only thanks to the exit of Ballmer, but I think that's an exaggeration.

Just to point out, at the moment the big part of those signaled bugs does not work also in IE version < 11. This must stress the fact that, at the beginning, winJS was used only for windows app store and only recently it is being opened

I was really surprised for how much they pushed it today, considering that is not strongly adopted in the windows dev ecosystem (maybe also because, since today, it did not work on windowsphone). I am personally happy of this decision, and

Also with Bizspark you can have, if I remember well, like 150E/month to spend on azure for 3 years. Considering that almost any IT startup can access to bizspark, it is a nice thing to at least try it. Also I love the fact they are dis

We have to hope they never form a sort of cartel or join an informal alliance. Until now we are really getting a lot of benefits due to this competition

Woah, 40kEUR for a fresh out of school engineer is a lot considering my zone (IT, GE, FR). Maybe in a corporation or something like that, but in startups and similars it's already a good start to have 20kEUR out of school (taxes includ

I would agree with your position only if we could assert that Wayland is the best protocol we can ever have. But can we affirm that? Can we suppose that there is no way to make a better protocol? What if Mir in the end will become better or

I was really happy seeing that azure sdks are released not only natively for windows but also for osx and linux. Imho, their strategy for asp.net can be easily what you described here.
