I guess it is more accurate to talk about latency, because throughput can always be improved by accessing multiple cells in parallel.

I have a problem with the word reusable. A reusable software should be a component in a larger solution. Not a complete solution itself. If I accept that Stack Overflow or Discours…

I may not understand quantum computing properly, but would not this approach require N entangled qubits? If no, can someone explain how it would function on less than N qubits, for…

I have been making native Windows applications for years and I am still making them. Around year 2000, Microsoft was a reliable partner. They made the OS, provided the tools and ot…

Stopping a presidential plane because there may be someone as dangerous as Snowden onboard? That is completely ridiculous and out of proportion. Not only did no European country of…

This was true 10 years ago. These days, every additional setting the application has is a liability. There is a growing group of people, who are scared to have conversation with th…

You should throw in a kinect sensor (or any alternative) and have a very comfortable remote control.

If Google really wants to "not do evil", they should actively work on removing themselves from this position of power they have. They should also work on making it impossible for a…

I agree that someone should fork bitcoin and fix the mining problem. But screw transaction rates, the mining difficulty shall be determined by the nodes (people) participating in t…

Today, the buyer does not experience the fee. Sellers accept it, because the middle man gives them no other choice. With bitcoins, the middle man has no leverage anymore as the buy…

One of the advantages of bitcoin is that you do not need a middle man to do a transaction. Some people may choose one for whatever reason, but would they be OK with paying the tran…

I am sorry I cannot agree with you. You cannot collect profits from a transaction between 2 Bitcoin users like PayPal does right now with "real" money. If the world adopted Bitcoin…

Oh, dear. If I were the president of PayPal and wanted to make quick buck, I would buy some bitcoins, released news like this, and sold my bitcoins the next day with a nice profit.…

But JPG was like 10x better than the other image formats available at that time for photographs. WebP hardly delivers 1.2x improvement... This is virtually unnoticeable.

I agree, that pushing WebP now is too soon as almost no image editors support it. I have added latest WebP codec (that also supports animations) into my RealWorld Paint ( http://ww…

Downloading TV shows is actually not illegal in many countries. Usually, only uploading is illegal. Morally, is is questionable. You can program your video-recorder (if you still h…

You cannot really compare Windows Store with Steam. There is no Steam-only OS with a name that evokes that it is a successor to Windows 7. How many non-programmers actually recogni…

I find it quite funny. The author started by demonstrating that sliders are inappropriate when representing 1-of-N choices. I agree. Then he proposed a visual change that makes thi…

With sound waves, your speed is added to the speed of sound and you hear a different note. With light, the speed remains at c, but perceived energy of the photons is still affected…

Well, it certainly is impressive, but if I understood the video correctly, it actually requires different graphic primitives than SVG offers, so it would require a new format.

that was not the list of applications, but a guide on how to write one with and example at the end

you can drag the splitter between the navbar and searchbar to adjust the sizes as you see fit... VS2012 is still a problem though
