Microsoft is surely trying hard to get rid of its past. And they are doing it well. What I wish they would also do is that they would provide a minimal OS as a dev platform.
GNU/Linux did not take over mobile. Google did. Linux was a tool but what really sold it to customers were the services and convenience. That could have been done with FreeBSD or any other UNIX or nonUNIX clone. People…
Tech people fail to understand that what they do is in some way always connected to "real people's problems and needs". Yes you might be paid to solve abstract compsci problems but they do not directly turn into $$$.…
Even Beam really ?...another one that received an insane amount of money in funding. There IS virtually nothing that prevents mri from becoming at least as fast as v8. Again you are comparing apples to oranges.
Sorry but everything is relative and we could have just stick with JVM and Java as it's super performant and you have enough developers to choose from. Picking elixir over ruby is like picking a katana when you want…
Wow are you seriously comparing mri with jvm that receivee billions of dollars and significant manpower investments and is fundamentally different from.mri?
I do not want to discourage you but these companies hardly solve "real problems". Yes they might be challenging and more prestigious but you will probably end up just working on better ads targeting. I mean I do not…
I wonder if there has been a research that tried to incorporate Hangul (aka the best writing system on earth) to Japanese/CHinese lang...just for pragmatic reasons
Why do you think it's an idiotic assertion ? Do you seriously think that the world needs countless of developers working on next big CRUD app ? Or countless of meaningless metrics and reports ? I do not think so. It's a…
These costs are banal compared to what your usual medium to large enterprise is paying in bonuses,benefits and other. I am coming from Europe and always admired capitalist systems but I think the americans and others…
Most of the people are mediocre. Just because they work in hyped companies (Uber,Google,Facebook whatever) does not mean they are the top 10%. And even being in top 10% does not directly translate into being able to…
I believe Crystal will try to compete with Elixir and GO and not with Rust or C
Are you kidding me ? Do you seriously have a clue what you are talking about ? Lets ignore that almost every company sources components from china and loses its know-how in a process. But did you actually know that…
Are you seriously stating me the obvious that stealing without punishment can give 1 party an edge over the other one ? Hello.. And that's the thing. I would not want to start a business in China just to see it…
1) pollution 2) oppressive government 3) language barrier 4) too many people 5) twisted ideas of morality (not respecting IP) Well...unless all you care about is $$$.
I think SF is a bubble and very unhealthy to the whole IT industry. It basically raises the costs for everyone. It makes no sense to hire a person in SF for much more (and he will not really benefit from it) just…
