A republic is a form of government, it just means the head of state is not a king. Democracy is an ideal. It appears you don't like it, well, you free to prefer a dictatorship if you like, it is a free country.
Well, it is easy to make such estimates if you the development you are doing is boring and routine. The problem is if you are trying something new, and that doesn't just mean new in the world, but new to you or new to the business. Estimate how big unknown obstacles are..
It is kind of like estimating how tall a mountain you have never heard of before is. With a bit of experience you might which mountain range it is part of and how tall mountains there usually are, but unless you already know the solution there is no good way of knowing the solution...
The most difficult part, not punching your co-workers in the face when they keep discussing the name of the project instead anything relevant to solving the project.
You watch too many hollywood movies. Cars do not catch on fire when driving off clifs or coliding with other cars. In fact cars almost never catch on fire in normal accidents, when they do catch fire it starts as electric fires.
That is one of the best descriptions I have read. With all the positive aspects of what Apple did and didn't do. Good work.
You are probaly just missing the iPhone part though, but I guess everybody knows that already. The iPad always running into trouble and getting more delayed, but parts of an early version became a prototype of iPod touch which started to look like a phone and would be really simple to add phone functionality to, so they did. Plus the american market was in the iron grip of the carriers, so they never got the best Asian or European phones, which meant the iPhone could enter the US market as a revolution on the market place eventhough the first version iPhone by European or Asian standards was a rather low featured feature phone.
Actually it IS a lot more fragile than the micro-usb cables, but don't let the facts hit you on the way out. It is probably one of the reason Apple keep their own shit around so the phone breaks sooner, preferably just after warranty runs out.
You are allowed to have two chargers you know. My old Nokia 6600 could be charged both via the traditional Nokia propriatary charger and via Micro-usb. I always used the special charger shipped with the phone until I lost it and now just charge it with the same cable I use for everything else.
Didn't everybody in Europe switch to Micro USB a couple of years ago?
Not quite. EU threatened with making a law like this unless the phone makers figured it out themselves. They almost did except Apple, so now EU will punish Apple for being pricks.
Every creative process needs a designated nazi, someone everybody agrees is the elected embodiment of evil whos job is to kill your darlings if they aren't good enough.
Well, rms is certainly bad for your blood pressure, especially if you are tasked with hosting him. Though I would use a different analogy, rms is best enjoyed at a distance, and preferably in writting.
That is actually a good question. Sounds like more of a civil case than a criminal one. Cheaters can be forced to pay back the winning and banned for life in all casinos, but go to jail??
And yet it still doesn't work very well. Take a look at any story involving, say, US politics or copyright issues and you will find that any post that strongly disagrees with the groupthink of the majority gets modded as Troll or Flamebait even when it is clearly not.
Any argument that contradicts reality is also likely to get downvoted.
A lot of people seems to think reality is political, but just because some politicians argue against facts, doesn't make the facts political.
I can see that I for some reason put you on my foe list at some point. I don't do that because I don't like what you write, but because it is offensive or stupid, and after reviewing your other post can determine a pattern of stupid, and therefore a good reason to give you a permanent -1. You are in all likelyhood one of the above mentioned people believing facts are political.
The phone will not be available in US not matter if the carriers want it or not. Jolla has right from the start said they would avoid the US due to the software patent situation there.
Those are for visas not for visa free travel. Holiday traveling between EU and USA is usually visa free. From your list only the US and Japan seem to require it for visa free travel.
Claiming that foreigners outside of US borders have standing under the US Constitution is an implicit acceptance of American Imperialism. You don't want that.
Bill of rights then (which is part of the US constitutation). Of course all that would be unnecessary if the US only accepted the international human rights (which were inspired by the Bill of rights).

Almost all of them. It is what is usually referred to as a budget.

Perhaps, but I still count on the saying: "A thief thinks every man steals".
The US assumes there are backdoors in Chinese equipment because they themselves put backdoors in all American equipment.

It IS openoffice write. LibreOffice is the new name used after some controversy where most developers left the openoffice brand.

A French guy being an elitist asshole, imagine that!
They do it better than Martha though, you must admit?
Huh? Mac is less BSD than Linux is GNU. That it is BSD is mostly a myth, it is based on Mach which they acquired from NeXT when they bought back Jobs.
Well NaCl it is one small corner of the bloated corpse of that is PPAPI.

Is that you Demosthenes?
More launch titles than most consoles have dad?
Nicknames work best when they have humorous origin.
Either that or the XBox One-Eighty. It works non ambigously as well, but was most popular a few months ago.
