Like judging a book by it's cover or the number of sales. No one said programmers are geniuses, they're just masters of some tools that forge the digital era, nothing more nothing less.
You know how many packages out there are better than request? Now compare all the work those great developers did, gave their souls for what? 50 stars at GitHub? Cmon, let's face the real problem here which is the balance between good code versus popular code. I'm speaking behalf of every great developer out there that spends hundreds of time and his project got faded inconspicuously. I have seen
hardcore projects that every tech company could have envied get like 50 dollars of donations and projects that were made in one day, get thousands.
It was about time. I did some benchmarks few years ago and the results were disgusting compared to native lib, plus why so many dependencies for a simple request library? I will never understand why it gained so much publicly, it was worthless since the day one.
Docker security is a joke but people still using this tool cause it's the most popular kid on the block and made by Google, the company that most Americans are faithfully blind trust no matter what s@!&# they launch.
This article is wrong from many aspects. There are things that many developers can't get with Typescript and it's flexibility...just always keep in mind what makes Typescript so special compared to any other languages. You can't achieve both flexibility and typed solid programming in the same place, you must sacrifice the things you just mentioned and few others. Typescript was supposed to be flexible and developer friendly, it's not a hardcore language and never will be.
Now Google is going to be more evil than ever before, Larry was a good man based on what I read. He always respected every single employee even the juniors.
I think it's gonna be something good from the creators of Typescript, the most flexible and object oriented language. Microsoft created too many languages compared to any other company and they really one step ahead in this field.
I have found interesting and enlightening articles on Quora but most of them are garbage, the analogy is weird compared to stack overflow. I don't know what went wrong with this site.
Apple is the most corrupted IT company ever existed. Look at how they make money, based on marketing and sales. There's not a single innovation in the past 10 years.
One of the worst things that ever happened to the internet it's called Google. This rogue CIA backed crap that violatates every single day your privacy data. I was one step from buying a Fitbit watch and spend $200 but after Google made it's move I stepped back.
Look how easy was the whole procedure. You just sent an email and boom next day your application's port was registered by IANA. Nowdays you must have a team of academics backed up by Google to apply for that.
Could this be another marketing trick to lure more customers? Last time I checked, companies are actually favourable when they "get slightly hacked". They get front page from top tech websites, magazines, forums...
Again, Europe is paying the "bill" and facing the consequences of the US-Russian-Turkish war on Syria. Europe is spending billions for the refugees but no one cared about. USA and Russian wanted to nuke the place for no reason and they didn't even spend a penny for helping all the refugees and immigrants. They're the most unethical countries right now.
Ancient Greeks were 1000 years ahead of their time. The more you study about their history, the more you go crazy. For example the first vending machine or the automatic doors, or machines that working using steam. They were talking about robots (Talos) and had a God of Technology (Hephaestus). Some scientists believe that if Greeks didn't invaded by Persians or Romans and continued to give all this knowledge and technology to the world, we would have the industrial revolution 1000-1500 years earlier.
I play Hearthstone and sometimes I watch Twitch. I once watched two major hearthstone GMs dissing about how tough and weird they're getting treated by Blizzard during tournaments. Every single word that comes out of mouth is carefully evaluated by supervisors and you have to be stand-by like 10 hours ago before the remote event in front of your PC without any reasons.
I keep tracking Blizzard cause I play Hearthstone from time to time. This company is unethical, it doesn't even care or respect their own employees and you can see it based on their previous scandals. They are treating both designers & developers like money making machines and they ruined almost every of aspect of their games. They spend millions of dollars in tournaments and always trick their costumers into buying more and more gaming content. It's the most greedy gaming company after EA.
Mr greed knocked their door one day, they sit down for a cup of coffee and they started to realize that everything is business and there are no ethics between companies, it's all about profit. That's what you would do and that's what I would do. Simple enough...
Stallman is missing, many fear of social isolation or even suicide. You can't ruin someone's career & life based on an opinion that was "leaked" and consider the fact that Italy's former prime minister was involved in an actual orgy with underage models but no one cared about and this guy is still one of the most respectable persons in Italy.
