Sweet Jesus the discussion under the request looks like MySpace. I sincerely hope that this isn't going to be the norm on GitHub in the future.

Take a look at the smartphone and tablet markets and tell me with a straight face that Apple did not turn them upside down. I don't care who was first to enter a market, I just care for the first one to get it right.

Did we really arrive at a point where we are ready to condemn a well working product ecosystem just because there's nothing new and flashy to look at?

My story: We used to learn Pascal in my high school programming classes. Each Pascal program ends with an “end” keyword followed by a full stop (“.”), at least if I remember correctly. I wrote a resident program that would monitor the keybo

One interesting thing about Miles Davis is that he never stopped inovating. Several times in his career he could have comfortably sticked to what he was doing and just enjoy the fame and money, but he pushed on. This kind of self-sincerity

It still works perfectly as a nice typing machine, it will play your music etc. A friend of mine is a musician and considers getting a PowerBook (!) to run an older version of PureData. The machine is cheap (which matters to him) and still

I think that Objective-C is pretty sweet. The problem is that you can’t cherry-pick language features. Each of them has implications for the rest of the language, forcing you into some compromise. As an example, when Objective-C picked grea

Dear God no, yet another pimped-up todo list? What does it do that the others don’t?

The problem is that there are so many soft factors affecting the outcome that it's very hard to tell if even a great scientific study will apply to your case. The number of people on your team, their experience with the technology being use

I see nothing here worth paying an order of magnitude more money for. Simplicity? I am very much willing to pay for a simple device that requires close to no support and maintenance. And I’m sure this is quite a common sentiment among peo

Free and independent film are experiencing an incredible boom right now, and the Blu-Ray eco-system with its DRM (or TPM) , region codes, and exorbitant patent licensing fees denies us access to that. So, I think it's time to do something

As already pointed out by others, incremental compilation does not work all the time. And as proved by Git, some speed advancements really change the game.

The biggest gripe I have with weaponized drones is the disconnection between people and responsibility. When a policeman shoots somebody, the ultimate responsibility for the shot is clearly attached to him and there’s little space for denia

This is a joke, right? Weaponized drones controlled by a fully automatic computer? Jesus, just try to make a computer that decides when it's safe to cross the street.

That's a lot of opinions and much less arguments (no offense). Would you care to explain the motivations behind the opinions?

Considering that GitHub is probably the second best thing about Git after the fact of its existence, I think that both sides of the table have something valid to say.
