There's not such thing as a free lunch!, or in this case upgrade.
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.1 new web site.
I know the voices in my head are not real but damn they come up with some good ideas!

I see Microsoft pushing hard to make this the year of Linux.
Me, I'm looking for some old Kickstart-floppy's.

The move could be Google's way of attracting more external committers to the JavaScript rival. What will we all do when GitHub goes away/evil/gets bought?

I wonder how many people are using Dart instead of Javascript? Why am I not using Dart? Hmmm...
Marc

Because of the additional step of compiling (converting?) Dart to JavaScript?

Compiler and standard libraries will be available for OS-X, iOS, and Linux. Something seems to be missing from the target OS list. I just can't put my finger on it.
But hey, it's open source, someone will add it, right?

Apple has just announced the next version of iOS, unsurprisingly called iOS 9. Multi-tasking on tablets (and phones)? Wow, where'd they get that idea?
|
|
|
|
|
The problem with multitasking is that it is not really battery-life friendly;
IMO, it is a nice candy, but not useful most of the time.
(or I still don't see the use for it on a tablet or a phone)

Apple senior vice president Craig Federighi took the stage to debut the update, focusing on upgrades to Spotlight, the operating system’s built-in apps, and window management features. They didn't want to change the default desktop image?

You can now create Windows or web applications using other web frameworks, while still having access to the rich set of controls that WinJS provides. Even more of the OS you need, in the language you don't

Me, I think HTML is done. Which doesn’t mean I think that the whole Web-programming platform is in a good state. "It's not dead - it's done."

HTML is like a zombie. You can't kill it.

At least someone killed it once.

What author means here is that HTML is done and 'basically OK', but other parts of the web platform need change, like DOM with jQuery and CSS with SASS and JavaScript with Dart, or whatever combination you think...
There is a huge problem however...HTML is not 'basically OK' and all the replacement suggested are only syntactical replacements and not real ones...After all Angular.js is JavaScript library and LESS compiling to CSS...

HTML is not even remotely close to done. The author forgets to mention HTTP/2. What we are need of is low to no latency. It needs to be lightweight, and hell fast. It needs to embrace modern concepts like asynchrony baked right in the browser. It needs to work smarter.

The internet and networked applications is done, stick a fork in it.
What could possibly go wrong?
html, browsers and the like need to be tossed (see other article about internet privacy and the raging issue of security).
If you could operate a browser (otherwise known as a thin client) on a secure network, sure, keep on expanding that there software. But it's not a thin client. The browsers now have FULL access to your phone, desktop, laptop, tablet. ISPs are monitoring your searches in real time to inject ads. Goodness.
We now have malware embedding itself inside of graphics cards.
I'd say the issue is moot.

There's a problem, however, according to a recent review study in the Communications of the ACM: The standardization that's made the internet what it is also carries with it "the risks of reducing variability and slowing the pace of progress." "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded."

Wasn't giving researchers a playground to test advance tech supposed to be one of the objectives of the Internet 2 project. Speaking of which, did anything other than buzzwords and snark come of it?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

No yearly fee to run Windows 10 after July 2016. So, it's monthly then?

No, it's pay for what you use. Must dumb down side projects to what you can afford
