    The foul language could actually do him good in the long run... "interesting things happen when Dave gives a talk". He can stand out of the P.C. crowd.

    While it's true that threads are ok if implemented correctly, one needs to be smart to correctly work with threads, and still any concurrent code will be ~10x more expensive to wri…

    As an outsider, it looks like MSFT does not grasp kernel performance as a super important feature of Windows. They add so much bells & whistles over the UI, but the inside sucks re…

    Interesting strategy to reinvent Yahoo! Perhaps MM does not believe in the ability of Yahoo's existing human capital to make the change. But is it enough, to "buy" (supposedly) goo…
