Android supports 100% of Java 7, and with a new compiler ("Jack") it supports most of Java 8. For an average Java developer, it is absolutely a completely vanilla Java experience, …

That was fixed 7 months ago. https://trac.nginx.org/nginx/ticket/488#comment:4 (yes I realize this will be dead)

To be honest with you, if you have to ask that question, you don't need SQL Server What a patronizing, obnoxious response. You attempt to follow it up with a justification, but it …

However could it be fair to consider Revlo a missing feature of Twitch? This points to a greater truth that has been demonstrated countless times -- you can't make a business out o…

These sorts of articles are so profoundly boring, but somehow the whole "Suburbia sucks" thing recurs on here like clockwork. If you don't like the suburbs...don't live in the subu…

My comments are uncivil to uncivil discourse. I assume you've also measured this out to chris_wot, who has even stalked ancient posts of mine to drop their trolls.

You've clearly established that you're a troll. While I applaud your desperate fishing for partisan upvotes, hang your nonsensical queries and comments off of other people's posts.…

I don't disagree with this at all. The implementation was imperfect. It had the signature of political meddling (of the "we know better" type). It seemed poorly defined and inconsi…

So no facts or counterpoint, then? And you continue to fail to grasp even the basics of my original comment, yet are scatter-commenting throughout this thread, seemingly boastful a…

"That sounds like utter garbage" - this will surely be a rational discourse... "These scientists are employees of the university." - Ignoring that the relationship of university pr…

There is another post in this thread arguing that I'm speaking "partisan propaganda" (another a "mouthpiece of evil". How very theatrical) for my position. Which is a bit incredibl…

The very article you're responding to mentions 3 specific examples of politically sensitive research But all three demonstrate nothing being suppressed. It points to two people who…

EDIT: It is outrageous that it is impossible to discuss the facts of this without everyone immediately veering to their partisan sides. Sorry, it was "rock snot". I don't cite an a…

This was a government worker's union issue that got absurdly bent out of proportion. The government demanded that government employees get approval for any direct communications wi…

That is an interesting article, but the meat of it contradicts, in a common sense, the title. For instance, no one thinks that Apple has a big vault with hundreds of billions in it…

If you exclude the cash horde (edit - the zombies hired to protect the vault full of cash), Apple's P/E ratio is running at around 5 right now. IBM is 10. Microsoft is about 35 if …

~5% of developers, while small compared to the whole, still encompasses about a million of the estimated 20 million developers worldwide. The other poster rightly mentioned the emb…

While C (and its love-child C++) bizarrely appears high in most synthetic programming popularity rankings, I personally doubt more than 5% of developers (if that) ply their days in…

I'm unconvinced you read my comment and are instead painting me with a "disagrees with the Bitcoin community's consensus and is therefore bizarre" brush You've plied this valiant c…

No one is getting upset about it and smashing keyboards. You do a disservice to your argument when that sort of caricature has to be the only alternative to your arguably gullible …

You just described exactly what I described in various other posts. How you came to the conclusion that I "don't seem to understand" can only possibly be due to some sort of zealot…

"All products" list four items, one of which is a product , three of which are services. Exactly as I already said . Give it up. Your initial comment about Mono was ridiculous and …

At this point I have to assume you're trolling. No one is this obtuse. Xamarin is a company, not a product Xamarin the company has a primary anchor product that is a tooling and SD…

Xamarin ( not Mono ) is a solution that seems like all win: Why bother with completely separate solutions on iOS and Android...and maybe even Blackberry and Windows Phone and... ..…

You're talking about it like it's some stupid ORM wrapper or wonky Widget UI library. It is not. Again, this conversation is about Xamarin the mobile app studio. There is zero ambi…
