  38. Re:will AJAX development finally be easy? by The_reformant · · Score: 1 · on The Future of AJAX and the Rich Web

    It is not quite as easy.

    Assuming you start from zero...
    But very few people need to start from the beginning most people have some experience with web development of the non 2.0 variety already. Once you have been introduced to xmlHttpRequest the rest is a case of reading docs and good design which should be language / platform agnostic. The main problem with the web 2.0 stuff is that it is a disparate set of loosely coupled technologies which makes it fiddly to develop with.

    There is some interesting noises coming out of Volta http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ajaxian/~3/197872651/gwt-and-volta abstracting the actual runtime location of arbitrary code is a really great idea and we've seen some baby steps towards this already with GWT and Gears.
  39. Microsoft criticizes Open Source policies .. by rs232 · · Score: 1 · on Dutch ODF Plan Could Sideline Microsoft

    According to Microsoft the government is imposing unnecessary restrictions on itself as the ODF standard is still hardly used. Users of Microsoft software will have to look to third party software to read the format, thereby acting to exclude Microsoft from the process. Microsoft also critcises the use of open source software as this imposes restrictions on the commercial developement process...

    We believe that the best solution to there not being enough resources on Earth for everyone is to go get resources off Earth. What resources off Earth are there not enough of on Earth? Serious question. Do you really think that lack of metal is going to be a serious constraint on human civilization? What resources does space have that we desperately need, and are cheaper to get from space (even with a space elevator) than from Earth?

    Technologies work with web don't necessarily mean web2.0, and all the new options available to web development are just choices, they all fit for a particular problem. When you dismiss Flash, Silverlight and alikes, you don't propose anything to replace, do you? When you learned ansi C, everything started to look like nails ha? I'd really like to see you in a real life project. One single toolset for all problems is just a myth and you'll learn that when you face more problems.
