I do not believe that India's caste system is the main reason of their national underdevelopment. Remember Japan's own caste system: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-...
The answer lies in their manufacturing sector that still today, falls short of meeting international quality standards: https://www.mckinsey.com/busin...
Notice how politely Pete Lau (OnePlus CEO) mention this in an interview: "One of the toughest challenges with India smartphone manufacturing is maintaining the same level of quality as China since the manufacturing environment in the country is not the same"

Their frank opinion about JavaScript:::::::
"When Mozilla began its games program, a lot of its engineers focused their efforts, naturally enough, on JavaScript performance. It was an intense and exciting time, with people using cutting-edge academic research and an array of optimization techniques from industry. With these, our team was able to speed up JavaScript so it could deliver something close to a native-software experience, the gold standard..........
The problem was that these performance gains weren’t consistent. Sometimes the code ran really fast, but sometimes it didn’t. The design of JavaScript made it difficult to determine when and where the slowdowns were occurring, and it was almost impossible to predict when they’d crop up."
Use your imagination. In a near future, students would train their own neural networks to deploy as personal robotic assistants in the real world. What could go right? Or wrong?
Well, that is a vital part of Android's strategy:
1) Bring a few Millions users to learn their system
2) Announce to these millions users: "The software that you know and love, it's ready and available, for first time, to use in your desktop, laptop or notebook. Just click this button to backup your files, wipe your disk and install Android Fig Newton in your computer... "
I have always wonder why some local Advertising Agencies are using YouTube Creator Music for their clients TV Ads. - https://www.youtube.com/channe... -
After you have listened the same tune used (and misused) hundreds of times, it lose the crucial brand building factor for any business. -
Today, in the country where I live, this conversation is becoming too common:::: Where I have heard that tune before?... Oh, it's the background music for a lot of popular videos on YouTube...
Oddly enough, before the Internet Era, a few local Advertising Agencies just copied popular Advertising Campaigns from other countries and sold them to local Advertisers.
Google could make a better news service if they add an AI based "Check for Facts" option button to their News service. After a reader select this option: "Check for Facts", every sentence of the article is clearly underlined and color -marked as speculation(yellow), fact (green) or lie (red)...
In this way, a reader could select their personal way to read and understand their news. This more balanced and fair than outright censorship. Now, figure this new and scary scenario: CNN post an article and the algorithm underline all sentences as truth (green underline), then someone in RT copy the same article, make a few insignificant changes (like adding dates and full names) and this same algorithm underlines the whole article as a lie (red underline)...
Now that I think about it, this a great application for AI helpers:
Paste a plain text file in your CMS and allow that a plugin
helper (AI driven) suggests different Typographic presentations
using only free web fonts...
If you are demoing MS products and you don't know how to save face and recover from a crash, then you are the wrong person to present that product...:-)

Tell me if I am wrong, but from now on, every building in USA would require by law that Glass Break Sensors are installed in every window... at least that is what I want to believe: https://buythetop10.com/top-10...
When I read about this, the first idea that struck my head was:
1) Is Microsoft creating a Linux version that runs natively ALL programs that currently runs in Windows OS? or...
2) Is Microsoft Windows ready to offer the choice of running Linux in parallel along their main OS, or the possibility of install and run natively (within Windows) every Linux program...
If Linus is going to review only Happy Little Gadgets, he needs a matching style... Where is the Afro? We could name this style as Afro-Linus... That is a good name for a new Happy Linux Distribution: AfroLinux
Well, now you understand WHY some designers prefer to work in complete isolation from these "design trends" that, as you describe, are "obsessed with style over substance, appearance over action and motivations over meaning..." but I suspect that Computer Programmers do not escape from their own kind of "programming trends"
In fact, requires Adobe Air... (Adobe AIR internally uses the Flash Player rendering engine and ActionScript 3.0 as the primary programming language)
Looks like older Scratch versions (1.4) already included Adobe Air and do not required install it from Adobe site.
Coal Industries should invest more in cutting-edge technologies that reduce it's environmental impact, for example:
http://www.sciencedirect.com/s...
and they must start using small and cheap remote controlled devices for mining...
After Wikileaks, I thought that every country in the world is looking back to hack every US Based Network and Server... but I was wrong. Looks like (according to this report) ONLY Russians actually care to get their hands on their Data. (Insert Picard's Epic Double Facepalm)

Yes, that is exactly what I though when I first read about this. Ideally, drones should be able to follow an encrypted signal
to find the exact spot to drop their delivery.
