I couldn't agree more, if the interface is for deleting files or driving a car or launching nukes.
Harmless UIs are rather good for teaching. I never had to teach my toddler how to scroll on his play tablet, he figured that out through experimentation.
Agreed, I love the idea of proper responsive UIs given the plethora of screen sizes and interaction patterns. But too many implementations look more like sample apps than a truly rich experience.
One interface is doomed to be best on at most one form factor. But why does it need to be one interface? Put the app on the devices it makes sense to run on. Optimize it for each of those interfaces individually.
This isn't very different from traditional cross-platform development. But better than that, you only have one code base in one language with one set of common frameworks and libraries, and one thread of versioning and updates instead of multiple to manage. The best, most maintainable cross-platform apps are already taking this approach at some level.
Responsive design just makes this easier and more consistent. But nothing about it means you stop designing once the first platform is complete. That's just lazy and you deserve the bad reviews you will ultimately receive.
How much of your life do you want government and corporations involved in?
As I see it, my corporation is involved way too much in decisions about my healthcare. I either have to let them choose what is covered or lose the entire benefit.
Such a law would help everyone shop around, even those in a full-time position.
Anonymized block chain ballots are a step in the right direction but, ideally, each ballot should be anonymous to everyone except the person who cast it. In other words, in an ideal system, I should get some sort of key after I cast my vote, which I can later use to verify that my vote is still part of the block chain, and is actually being counted towards the correct candidate.
I'm not sure that such a system can exist, where you both have a secret ballot and a conveniently verifiable ballot.
If you can verify it from your computer, then your boss can stand over you while you do so. Another option is to verify at a government office in private, but becomes so inconvenient that nobody will take advantage.
Even if it is both secret and verifiable, then you can tell at least one ballot was cast for your candidate. Can we ensure that all the other thousands or millions of ballots are correct, specifically that no invalid ballots have been added?
I ask sincerely... I want a good system, I just don't know what it takes to remove these massive flaws.
That's one reason Net Neutrality matters so much. It's hard enough to offer competition against the behemoths. Once Google or any huge service provider can pay their way out of the slow lane, small businesses looking to compete might as well give up.
People acted like it was unconscionable to vote for [insert Trump or Hillary]. I agreed, that's why I voted for GJ.
Reality is that the election was a bust months before it happened. Party primaries gave us terrible polarized choices, leaving popular moderates out. But the real solution is to break the two-party system... and that can only happen with a different voting system such as ranked or score voting.
No, WSL is a native implementation of the Linux kernel interface. It is not an emulator.
The major performance issues that remain are with I/O. Otherwise it's actually pretty good, in some cases equal to or even slightly better than bare-metal Ubuntu performance.
Indeed, they have turned completely away from that philosophy and have open sourced several of their current products.
I doubt they will ever open their entire stack. They want to keep at least some major components of money makers closed (e.g. they open-sourced Roslyn but have not fully opened Visual Studio). They rely less and less on the consumer versions of Windows for income, so I predict MS will start to open some of those components. We may never see much of Office open-sourced.
VMware started on private servers and recently expanded to offer public cloud services in which you can manage everything with the same tools. You can migrate easily between private and public clouds and manage scaling and redundancy from one location.
This is somewhat the same, in reverse.
The market is there. You just might not be the target audience.

Apple does not have the home-grown popular services with recurring subscription revenue
No, it just has everyone else's popular services with recurring subscription revenue.
I'm all about Apple determining their own pricing structure and rules for their store, but prohibiting competing stores on *your* device should be illegal.
You get taxed on the gains, and the tax rate depends on whether the crypto you sell has been held for at least one year. If so it falls into long-term capital gains (low tax rate), otherwise it falls into short-term (ordinary income tax rate).
Form 8949 is useful from there. It asks for details of each transaction, including the value of that trade in dollars at that time, so day traders are going to have a lot to report. But the sum total is what determines what you get taxed on. You can ultimately think of it as total dollar gains - total dollar losses. (Oh and I believe you can deduct fees.)
(This is based on a response I got when I asked the same question. It's just internet advice, not accountant/legal advice... someone please correct me where I'm mistaken.)

Microsoft's implementation didn't meet all our hopes and dreams. But I'm not convinced it can't be better.
I am convinced that Apple wouldn't do much better. Apple is generally much more restrictive.

I seriously doubt $6 million a year is cheaper than fixing the issue.
Rich companies don't stay rich because they are in the habit of throwing away money. It would be dealt with.
FWIW he beat both SpaceX and Blue Origin to a manned rocket launch.

But that's the point. I don't care about my neighbor's cousin liking my Instagram post.

Nope.
Sure beats digging out my phone just to find the same useless information.

Comparing cloud architecture with "terminal/server" is missing the whole point.
A modern multi-GPU gaming PC and a Turing machine can both compute stuff, but I don't say they're the same thing.

Don't worry, he always finds his way back from the speed force or whatever.
Of course there will be opportunities for us to serve the machines.
Assuming the authors all have proper university degrees it is very hard to write crap code
I know plenty of CS grads who could barely comprehend basic CS 101 level concepts.

Higher peak volume pricing would be one way to achieve this. Employers who are more flexible can attract a larger pool of employees.
Disagree. There's nothing inherently "abusive" about a subscription model.
If your TCO is higher and you don't care for the cloud service benefits or any of the other perks, then say that. It's a different issue.
I can agree with this so long as additional allowed items (such as medical equipment) are exempted.
