I felt the same way and transferred my domains to Uniregistry ... and then GoDaddy bought them.

I understand the frustration, as someone working on apps in the space it is clear that there is much to be done. Dapps right now are still a work in progress and very early. Most of the issues you brought up are known in the space and are a

This is still an ongoing debate in the crypto space. The opposing argument to concentrated mining pools is that they still require individuals to point to these pools and are essentially acting as proxy votes. It's decentralized becaus

Blockchain without decentralization isn't that exciting. The problem with banning crypto is that there will be an entrepreneurial group of people willing to accept cryptocurrencies for a high fee and turn it into fiat or a commodity in

I like Dropbox but as a potential investor I would be a bit nervous about the online storage industry as a whole considering crypto-backed decentralized storage seems only 12-24 months away.

It depends what you consider "the web" to be at this point. If you consider domain names, web server software, and data formats / protocols created for the web to be part of "the web" then I would argue that nearly

Cool! The more common reusable rockets become, the more we can assume their cost benefits and apply them to even more ambitious space projects.

Sadly, I have been a vicitm of idea debt. As a young developer I had a grande vision of starting an online network of websites. I spent a solid month planning them all out, designing the logos and everything. Needless to say, when I showed

Anyone else feel the need to do a parody video demonstrating how the ads have encroached on the organic link space over the years? Not hating, I actually like the new look, it was just the first thing I thought of when they mentioned the or

I always assumed this was due to the language barrier. China has roughly 10 million English speakers while India has hundreds of millions. To me, language appears to be one of the largest causes of cultural divide.

Just one look at blockchain tech should tell governments that they might as well give up on the pointless endeavor of eliminating information via intimidation. Technology is slowly presenting two options, complete transparency or totalitari

I miss Perl. It was the first programming language I learned as a kid. I read the entire Perl for dummies book when I was 14 and uploaded my first script to a "cgi-bin" shortly after. Thanks Larry for your contributions!

Correctly interpreting online communication is difficult. What one person considers constructive feedback another person may interpret as negativity. Reminds me of that Key & Peele skit: https://youtu.be/naleynXS7yo

Great article, I myself have been both on the sending and receiving end of such discourse. I like OSX and love Node.js which can become a source of confrontation. Talk about node.js in the Reddit programming sub and prepare for the backlash

Yeah, it does surprise me when technical people still show skepticism towards VR. I could see how a person could assume it's going to take another 5 years of iteration to be worthy of mass adoption but after the recent MWC and GDC conf

I agree, I love my Gear VR but I think the mobile solution needs to be an all-in-one device. I could see mobile and desktop VR using the same headset. With USB-C they could charge the headset battery while allowing you to power the display

Great ideas, I can see public speaking becoming a large attraction. VR-based conferences may gain popularity where you can watch presentations and do a live Q&A at the end. Imagine a programming conference where you get a digital goody-

It's truly amazing how someone can now put together a brand new computer for less than $100 with a bit of effort. I have the Raspberry Pi 2 and it's quite impressive, especially when running on an ARMv7-compatible Linux build.

Auto-update is the main feature I care about. With auto-update we don't have to worry about legacy browsers holding back the entire industry.

I feel like we are unfortunately sitting on the tail end of the integrated circuit S-curve and are now waiting for the emergence of the next processing medium.

I hope the two groups are able to work out their differences. I would love to see some of the strengths of io.js transfer into Node.js from both a technical and organizational perspective. The io.js project has been surprisingly thorough. S

I do love the PMQs of British politics. US Congress is not nearly as entertaining, we tend to have hour long monologues with lots of charts and little debate. US politics does have it's moments though ... https://www.youtube

It appears to me that it is useful for eliminating the "middle man" scripts/code often written for web application and server interaction. If I want to create a web application that displays the status of my server (CPU, memo

This is perfect for admin tools. I'd rather parse stdout strings than code a custom API.

I have only been to HK and Macau but never to the China mainland. Pardon my ignorance, but why does the Chinese government bother to censor the Internet? Are the people in China not happy with the progress that has occurred over the past fe

I really love this. Are there convenience functions to convert existing values to and from your new data types? I would love to use this library but as C programs often requires third-party libraries I could see many instances of having to

IBM has great products and the design of this website is nice but the content does the design a disservice. The design expresses "clarity and simplicity" while the text expresses "vagueness and complexity".
