    Why wouldn't they believe in protecting their customers privacy? In Apple's case there is no conflict of interest to make you doubt that statement. If it came from Google or Facebo…

    I agree, thinking the politicians can handle anything is naive. Politicians seldom make the situation better, mostly they make it worse while enriching themselves. Socialism don't …

    Heh, exactly my thought when I saw the headline. As a webdeveloper since 1995, I can only say "phew, finally" - that browser probably cost me 2-3 years of my life, spent hacking va…

    Hm yeah, I must admit I have a hard time understanding the high pricing on cloud storage. I always end up comparing to something like OVH storage servers, and cloud storage seems w…

    Nice! ZX81 was my first computer. I didn't even have the tape storage. I just typed some program in from a magazine and left it on for a couple of days. I even got the Lampda 16K m…

    I wonder why they didn't choose Go in the first place. Both languages were introduced in 2009, I remember evaluating both, and choosing Go because it was clearly superiour when the…

    So only now that FB is on board it is real? Sony, Valve, Microsoft and god knows what other big companies, who were working hard on VR, wasn't real? I think everyone are pissed off…

    Hmm standing desks have been the standard for office work in many years here in Denmark. You can buy them in any store that sells office equipment. Seems weird that would not be th…

    What? Wolfram is saying it wouldn't be that hard to build something like Samantha. Did he see the movie? Samantha is like a AI with human level intelligence, only much faster, able…

    I did the exact same thing, because of similar views (using the best tool for the job). I also switched to Windows in 1995 or so, and switched back to Mac in 2004.

    No, he increased his chance of success by working hard. Luck != success.

    Seems to be wildly misleading numbers. Why not use something like gs.statcounter.com to get more correct numbers.

    Socialism didn't work the other 15-20 times it was tried as a nations political foundation. But I am sure it will work this time.

    No, I think they disagree with Google about how to implement it. I suppose having paid 8+ bill for Skype might have something to do with it.

    I am new to Go, but have dived right in and rewriting our current PHP backend in Go. This global state abuse sounds quite important to understand. Unfortunately I do not have any c…

    I dont know about Sweden, but in Denmark, it has been documentet many times, that about 80% of the journalists are left wing. Any way I got a bit off track here. The subject at han…

    Well thats just like your opinion, and not true at all. The problem in Sweden is the same as in Denmark only worse. The media is controlled by leftists to a degree that almost no r…

    I was hoping you'd come up with some reasonable explanation why it would be ok to drop support for IE9 as well ;)
