- FOWA 2009: Microsoft Surface 'proof of concept' actually pointless
- Grats on being closed mindedWell done for putting someone down, your price point argument is fair but doesn't negate the number of possible uses of the surface device, which frankly are only limited by imagination, something that seems to be questionable for you.How do you define genuine uses?

- Can Linux beat the bloat
- I think the whole "bloated" thing is hogwash.There's no such thing.Neither Windows nor Linux are "bloated". Nor is OS/X. You want functionality you have to pay for it. One man's lean and mean is another man's anemic.Functionality simply isn't free.How many lines of code did USB take? How about multi-threading?...

- The taboo of failure
- Google plans for failureI read sometime back about google's strategy to handle hardware failure. Instead of focussing on building expensive unbreakable hardware, they assume it a given and build it into the software to handle hardware failures. So the concept is gaining ground.http://andrewchenblog.com/2009/07/13/built-to-fail-how-companies-like-google-ideo-and-37signals-build-failure-tolerant-systems-for-anything/Great managers understand it.I once worked for a...
