Comment Re:Browsers getting too complex (Score 1) 237

Do you really not see the point of web applications that can work on ANY OS be it desktop or mobile, on any platform?

It's about efficiency and it's just not efficient to develop and maintain applications for all the platforms, there are just too many and they are all different.

Browsers are the common denominator.

Does it help if I do this? I know a LOT of people who watch other people play sports and somehow that is OK.

"i just dont get it TBH, i guess im just old now (29 haha) but i find the idea of watching other people that I dont know...play SPORTS does nothing for me. I dont mind watching my friends play because, they are my friends. but I dont understand why people would want to watch people play SPORTS.

Even worse is watching people talk about watching other people play SPORTS (Sportscenter?)"

You have to refine your definition though maybe it's too broad.

The 10,000 hours means you will be good at things you have 10,000 hours of experience with. That guy had 0 hours of experience with nulls in DB2, thus I would not expect him to be an expert at using nulls in DB2.

But I bet he is an expert at using integers in DB2 because he has spent 10,000 hours using integers in DB2.

To me this is akin to someone becoming as expert at playing the piano and not knowing about the foot pedals. You can certainly become a master at playing the keys on the piano without ever becoming a master at using the foot pedal.
