This has been the case for a very long time. If anything, I would argue the only reason why we've had JavaScript for so long is that there really haven't been other languages worth replacing it with until recently. Now, it is really feasible to use your server-side language as your client-side one as well.

EPUB is literally HTML files in a ZIP archive. There are also a couple of great editors out there.

Perhaps they aren't referring to the backend, but the language that one would use before compiling?

6 games, and sometimes you get copies for more than one system. And the sales, don't forget the constant sales.

They probably just didn't want to overpromise. Considering that emulation would have been required anyways for their streaming model to work, I don't see how this wasn't inevitable.

My PS2 sits underneath my PS4. I still have a crazy backlog of games I own and games I've yet to buy. As a system, it has yet to be beat. Unless one is too young for it, I don't imagine people would ignore how amazing the games were. It's pretty much the last significant console.

NOW is for PS3 games, and possibly PS2 at some point.

Yes and no. Backward compatibility is more common than people mention, but because the actual architecture and media of consoles change from generation to generation, consoles as a whole aren't backwards compatible.

One was announced for Vita forever ago. We're getting a remake + a new Saga.

They make the best PHP IDE, and maybe the best Ruby and Python IDEs. It is very much worth it.

JetBrains charges for updates, and it seems to have worked for them so far. Plenty of don't mind the $50/year to get updates and make sure the software still works. The subscription model isn't nearly as profitable as one would think, especially since old customers get to keep their software and buy 1 more year's worth of updates. If anything, raising the price and allowing for perpetual licenses would have been better.

It looks like individual licenses are still available. Why not go ahead and purchase it and maybe an extension?

If I recall, more games installed in Japan.

This is not always true. I graduated with a BS in CS from a decent state school, went for Database Administration. Education was thorough, covered basically everything technical for Database, Information Security, literally assembling a computer, project management, and basic programming. Graduated during a bad period for employment and have never been able to land a database job. I live in a fairly large city and barriers to gainful employment exist and are numerous.

Not even that I'd imagine. Many of the hidden costs of labor(workman's comp, insurance, training, uniforms) are fairly flat.
