You are being down-voted not because of some imaginary "purity cycle", but because you discard without reasoning a vast amount of evidence to the contrary of your hypothesis. You've heard of the saying that extraordinary clai

Not to be contrarian, but if you cared, you could easily rule out your suspicions. It's not even worth it to say why or how, since not even doing rudimentary research means that you aren't interested in developing a well-informed

I thought the same thing. Scott is basically CEO of devrel at Microsoft. Maybe we're of a different age to remember when Scott was super influential as a blogger / conference speaker, but even now he's not some random VP.

Is it considered a warmer color on the surface? Mid-day sun in a clear sky is very white, in the 5k-6k color temperature range. It's hard to get a sense of how white it is because of how bright it is. In fact, the color temperature on

Did the product result in physical harm? No. A better analogy would be ordering a med-rare steak, but it coming out overdone. If that happens once and the restaurant makes good on the mistake, I wouldn't hold it against them. Sending

I think this is a good question that shouldn't be down-voted. If you look at various definitions of what facism means, you may see something like: "characterized by severe economic and social regimentation and by forcible suppress

If you sell a physical thing, some percentage of them will have defects. That's just a fact of manufacturing. It seems unfair to move to "not recommended" due to a single instance of a hardware failure, especially if the man
