Sibling comments are bashing MS. I read your comment to the end, and it read like a punchline to a joke, given who owns Azure?

I think the original sentence was written more in of "Your loss is my gain" competitive advantage vein. The real trick is, as you say, to critically assess the output, and many people are incapable of that.

In talking about a switch to USB-C, one point seems to be missing - Lightning gives Apple absolute control over which devices can connect. If you don't pay up your MFI fees, and get your device blessed, then there's a chance it ca

"Dropbox also went public. It had a first-day pop of 36 percent; however, with only 200,000 paying customers compared to its 500 million users, I would be hesitant to rush in to buy, even as it comes off that year-to-date high consider

You've added another dependency into the mix here. I've been comfortable storing my database in Dropbox, with a decent length master password (15char+) on the assumption that it uses a high quality hash that would make bruteforcin

I've had this experience with 2.x and as I recall, on machine B where the file was already open with unsaved changes, I was prompted to merge changes after Dropbox updated the file on disk. Without recalling the details, I was pretty i

This talk of contracts sounds to me just like Android's intents, which have been in there forever - one example being a app having a share button that then pops up a list of all apps that offer an endpoint for a particular data type (ie sha
