    I find Swift very bad for churn. Swift has had 5 versions in 5 years, with breaking api changes each time. Every answer on Stackoverflow about Swift has several answers, one for ea…

    Linux as narrowly defined as the kernel is very good at not breaking things. Linux as used in common speech to mean a Linux distribution and associated libraries undergoes constant…

    Can you run a 'normal' Linux desktop application written in C or C++ on a Chromebook? Or is it just Android Apps and Web Apps?

    The country I don't understand how they do it is Bangladesh. A country the size of New York State with 164 million people. (50% of the US population). As I understand it, they gene…

    I had the same experience on Col du Tourmalet. I heard the helicopter but couldn't see it until I looked down.

    When I was injured in 1991, they transplanted nerve sheaths from my leg to my arm with the hope nerves would regrow. Some actually did an I regained some sensation and movement. Th…

    I think Java was unique as it was the first language with a major corporation behind it and a large marketing campaign.

    I think Lisp failed because it had no killer app. Most developers don't pick a language, they pick a project and the select the most appropriate language. Web frontend -> Javascrip…

    I think another thing is that governments have lost a lot of their power and are now somewhat controlled by corporations. This is usually assumed to be a bad thing, but most corpor…

    Isn't that pretty much what happened with GM? The stocks and bonds were all wiped out. And then the new GM was owned by the government / union until they did an IPO a few years lat…

    .apps aren't really analogous to the registry, they are more like the contents of the Program Files directory. On macOS, the registry equivalent is all the plist files stored in ~/…

    I've bought more Garmins than Smartphones. I think I've purchased: 3x Edge 305, Edge 500, 2x Edge 810, Edge 820. Garmin has the advantage that their products are much more likely t…

    The API is very stable. Any Win32 app from the last 24 years will still run. 16 bit apps will still run on the 32 bit version of Windows. They promote the cool new thing every so o…
