We have a Dell XPS 13 (9343) (originally came with Windows) at work. I used Ubuntu on it and couldn't get the display set up so that menus on IDEs etc. was a readable size. Attaching an external display was a disaster.…
I'd like an easy-to-use plugin for FF to call youtube-dl.
It's sad that books and blog posts on this topic needs to be written.
Not sure, but it doesn't beat a fully loaded Thinkpad from 4+ years ago. I hope Lenovo rolls out the retro design they are teasing.
Could you give examples of tools which make your easier vs. those that make it hard / are impossible to use? This seems like a good additional argument for open / interoperable systems vs. closed, tightly controlled…
This.
I'm not sure that I follow your argument. Are you saying that because a similar research project was successfully commercialized Plan-9 should be judged akin? Even if you accept that, UNIX was not developed to what it…
++ for picking out the +Fravia reference, and a middle finger to Google Plus for using the same thing.
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/about.html "Introduction Plan 9 from Bell Labs is a research system..." It does not seem that it was ever meant to compete with or replace commercialized operating systems. The direct…
Do you have experienced engineers/developers who can mentor junior employees?
I don't see how the discussion around an open plan office is tricky. Simply googling it will give you droves of articles like this one http://www.inc.com/geoffrey-james/why-your-company-will-bene... as well as research…

I use the MX500. Had it for 12 years. Took it apart two years ago and washed the plastic parts in dishwashing liquid, still good as new - only the black background of the logo is worn.
How do you think things would have played out had he become president 10 years earlier, 5 years before the revolutions of 1989?

Anecdotally the taste is lost when they breed tomatoes to not burst when falling 3 feet to the floor.
When it comes to a textual user interface, have you considered Rob Pike's Acme? http://doc.cat-v.org/plan_9/4th_edition/papers/acme/
Mediatek :(
(My reply is specific to this happening in 2016. There will one day be Judge Dredd-like firearms. I don't see that being widespread in my lifetime, though.) If you work in a company developing a hardware product you…
Can you please point me to communities / sources around these topics? Super interesting!
I was with you until nr. 7. Definitely not going to happen. If some genius makes it happen, expect it to be an epic failure. 8 and 10 maybe, 9 I don't know...
EPUB: https://transfer.sh/zIKhO/gsglgl-piotrwozniak.epub (3.7 MiB) PDF: https://transfer.sh/17RsID/gsglgl-piotrwozniak.pdf (13 MiB) btw transfer.sh is great thus far.
