I definitely disagree here. All features of C++ have their uses and it's possible and necessary to master them all. This language is focused on getting the job done. Thus some of its design decisions don't look very nice. But it's the most usable language in its niche.
If they're funded only by donations(with unrestricted "freeware" distribution) they don't have sales in strict sense. So I really want to know would donations be considered sales?
It would be fine if they served merely as registrars allowing any developer to have a site in.dev. But having it as google only is ridiculous, I agree.
There's an easier way, just download iso from tpb or something like that. Their modified isos have menus that allow you to choose variant you want to install(home premium etc) and doesn't even ask any serials. Installed os gets updates and works as it should. I think microsoft just needs to reuse their solution:P
Every person has some data that should be secret, like credit card details. If your devices have a backdoor for government then criminals can use it too. Just matter of time before the way to use it leaks into criminal underground. Requiring mandatory backdoors for storage is as absurd as requiring a single mandatory government usable master key for all locks. You may be 100% sure that actual use it to catch criminals will be dwarfed by abuse by government officials for their own petty ends.
Actually you could split off each resource acquisition into separate function that does acquire -> check -> cleanup cycle for one resource and calls next function in chain. Not shorter than goto way but you're less likely to shoot yourself in the foot by messing up order of cleanups or something.
This review score inflation is mere consequence of inherent subjectivity of it. Each person maybe can establish some sort of consistent scoring methodology but it will be of little use for other people. If you try to be objective and neutral you pretty much always find a way to boost score because each poorly executed aspect of the game in question is pretty much guaranteed to be unimportant for someone and thus not warranting a downscore..
From what I can tell main attack weapon on sea is right now the cruise missile. Extremely long range and ability to correct targeting errors in flight. There's no way railguns or lasers can compete with that. There could be other niche for them though. Like point defense.
Too much effort to cover an attack vector that is rarely used in practice. Even if you consider it a move against modders/free platforms it's still a geeky waste of time to stop something that is a niche activity and matters little for anyone's bottom line.
My understanding is that move away from Presto and to webkit/blink was used as excuse for changing the overall Opera vision, either that or new Opera devs are too incompetent to properly re-implement the vision. Either way, Opera founder just returns to reassert his vision.
