The circles of CEOs and geniuses rarely intersect. Not even this time.
Just because it is not the kind of genius you want to be does not mean it is not a kind of genius (I would not want to be that kind either). Can a brilliant composer build a rocket, or build a company that builds rockets?
In other words, FB is working on making itself as obsolete as these market leaders once were. Took them shorter than I gave them, actually.
None of those others were tied to Facebook and Facebook is not going anywhere. Sure, I uninstalled Messenger several months ago and have no intention of installing it again, but all my friends and family won't magically start using some alternative app.
"Better" depends upon what your needs are. So far, it seems that everyone who has been saying that Windows 10 is "better" seems to think that their needs are appropriate for everyone else. That alone disqualifies the opinion.
I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it, but I think your argument is that his opinion is "disqualified" because he based it on his own experience. Or, more simply, his opinion is "disqualified" because he has an opinion.
Horse shit. I my staff and I manage 500+ workstations and laptops and we have had nearly zero issues. Win 10 installs very well on older machines and is stable. Stop being a fucking chicken little.
I just got a blue screen a few minutes ago on my '10 workstation. I think I was messing with Hyper-V at the time and mounting a virtual hard drive to the host or something. It's the first I've had. Not sure if it's a driver or OS/Hyper-V issue.
A better answer to your question is that I haven't found any features of Windows 10 that would warrant my updating from Windows 7.
If you use PowerShell a lot you get a better console host, with syntax highlighting and command history across multiple sessions, among other things that should have been standard years ago.
After twenty years of problems with code in documents, including some that would wipe-out your partition table, they still allow code in a document to execute.
Except by default "they" do not allow it. You must enable macro support after clicking through warnings. You may also download whatever binary you want and click through the warning advising you the certificate, issued to "Skripty and the Kidz" is not trusted.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee rented the Obama for America list twice in April, services valued at $135,000, according to an FEC report.
Let's call it what it is: FRAUD.
The "X" symbol in the top right corner of a window has been used to close a window since windows has existed. Therefore there's a pretty clear precedent established that when a user clicks there, he means to close the window. Changing the meaning of this symbol and causing it to do something completely opposite to what is intended without prior notice is a completely deceptive practice.
Let's call it what it is: You only ever read the article summary and for some reason trust Slashdot summaries. Here's a link to the popup. Notice anything? Keep looking. Oh, that's right, it's a pop up letting you know that Windows 10 is now a recommended update and your computer is set to automatically install recommended updates so click here to change your settings if you do not want to do this.
Microsoft says they'll give "an additional opportunity for cancelling the upgrade" -- because respecting the user's choice the first (or second, or fifth, or 20th) time clearly isn't considered by those assholes to be an option!
You clearly could not be bothered to read the article. The pop up stated that Win 10 is now a recommended update, and that the user set their computer to install recommended updates automatically.
There's a reason why the function keys default to not acting as function keys (changeable in System Preferences).
I suspect the average Mac user isn't a heavy typist. The average Windows user may not be either, but you have a choice of manufacturers so it doesn't matter.
I was aware that the state of Javascript development is pitiful, but the recent incident where the pulling of a simple String-padding library crashed hundreds of other projects outdid even my worst fears.
That really had little to do with JavaScript as a language and more to do with NPM, the package manager for NodeJS. I get that you'd love to hold that against JavaScript. I just think you'll have to find another reason.
Another example is complex software only usable by professionals (or very skilled amateurs). Votes from people coming to it who have no idea of the field are basically worthless.
No. Good niche software is not "divisive."
We're talking about entertainment. You do not need to be a TV Expert to give a "qualified" rating of entertainment.
We used to hook up our desktop (486 dx) to this little color latop my dad had bought (486sx with the smeariest non-tft screen you had ever seen). It was my first taste of multi player gaming on pc. Incidentally, that laptop was given to me a few years later and was used exclusively for nethack.
The failures didn't really have much to do with the air frame though.
But the deaths had everything to do with selecting an inherently unsafe design to begin with. Every other launch system since Mercury has had an abort system and much simpler, safer method of re-entry.

There is nothing wrong with an all lower case password of an appropriate length.

Click and drag the right edge to the left and it removes the space where the tiles were.
Right-Click and delete the tiles then drag the right side of the menu to the left.
Does the submitter even read Slashdot?
It is quite possible that the cries from the echo chamber have yet to reach the submitter's ears.

Any person that heard the single word request "whether" would interpret it the same. It's the only way that makes sense.
(Anyone want to bet how naive that reporters from the Wisconsin Gazette are?)
The publication's tagline is "Progressive. Alternative." I don't think it's naivete.
The simplest explanation is that they have nothing to secure. That is, they have nothing to lose yet: Savings, Job, Credit, etc.

I have a backup . . .
Give Windows 10 a chance before restoring. I like it a lot better. Better UI, better console host, better a lot of things, really.

Yes but after the project fails, and he is let go, think how marketable he will be as a Full Stack Developer.

Maybe you can find a 'kids show' that is sophisticated enough for adults as well.

Actually a story on the history of the arcade game PONG would be pretty cool.
