"Windows Phone Has A Totally Unique UI" - I don't think this is a valid point. Unique does not automatically win anything. Better might be a winner, but the article does not say that. It matters in that it's something…
Well, the first problem you'll run into is, which SQL implementation do you use? I think pretty much all discussion of the topic stops here since there are so many differences between the actual SQL standard and what…
This problem has already been solved; it's called OData (http://www.odata.org/). Personally, I've been using it with Microsoft's new Web Api to great benefit. It provides a very rich query API on top of basic http, and…
Some people seem to have forgotten that the reason MSE is so good is because Microsoft have an entire department that explores those DrWatson errors people send them. Some of the time the reports include virus authors'…
While certainly not free, SQL Server 2008 introduced some pretty nice spacial data tools. It can find points within a radius, capture points within a polygon, intersections/unions, and quite a bit more. It also has full…
I haven't written any python in a while, but a 15% speedup from inlining a function call? Really? This reinforces my preference for statically typed languages.
Are we reading the same article? He has an ordered, referenced critique that explains exactly why java's fork/join doesn't belong in the JDK. I don't think it's really appropriate to call this a conflict of interest;…

Cross posting my reply from another site: > We were now rendering our site index in 1.5 seconds or less, compared to 3 seconds before. This is the real WTF. What kind of queries take three seconds to run, that is…
Hi Rod! Networking didn't initially work for me but I got it going by using NAT with an Intel card; seems they included drivers for them.
Perhaps because it compiles programs and not expressions? Try wrapping it in a Main method and see.
And therein lies the problem. When people buy these awful computers it sends a message to the companies that there's a market for them. If they wanted to change their image they'd need to only compete with apple, which…
The author seems to be generalising on a massive scale. The reason there's so much crap in the PC laptop market is because there's a lot of demand for cheap hardware. Many of his negative points about windows are flat…
I'm sorry but users aren't going to upgrade to iOS 5 for the same reasons they haven't upgraded in the past: they just dont care. Unless a user is actually frustrated with something, they won't bother investigating how…
