Actually there is a lot more that differentiates these two devices even on a first inspection. If I asked you to tell me the brand of two tires with no branding could you tell me which is which? I don't see people talking about bridegstone and Michelin having serious issues.

On a first inspection of the device I'm pretty sure most people wouldn't think they are the same. After turning it on even less. That the samsung looks are inspired by the iPad, I'm sure they would agree but I don't think they would be confused. Most people don't seem confused when buy clothes at Macy's that they are actually the designer equivalent.
There are particular ways in which Wordpress exacerbates this situation. For example, let's say one of your $10 an hour freelance authors uses an insecure password. What happens? Content defacement? Much of the time, the answer is arbitrary code execution, because Wordpress has had copious local-to-Wordpress privilege escalation vulnerabilities and, once they're admin, they can upload arbitrary PHP to your web server straight through the site.

Or let's say you allow anybody to sign up and comment on your blog. What's the downside risk, pesky comments? Nope, arbitrary code execution, because anonymous one-off commenters get an admin area and it has had copious local privilege vulnerabilities to turn them into real admins and then it is off to the races.

Then there is the XMLRPC library. Wordpress ships with it on by default. What's the risk of leaving it on? Say it with me, arbitrary code execution, because...

And PHP encourages you to do includes, including (when an edge case gets missed) inclusions of remote files (!), which puts you at risk of...

I mean, I love Wordpress. Never point it at someone you don't want to kill, always treat it like it is loaded, and keep it in a locked case, and you're mostly pretty much safe.
Somewhat in the same vein... a friend of mine teaches ESL classes for foreign US university students. He made a pretty basic app - it's not polished but it's perfectly functional - to help his students study vocab/tenses/etc. I forget now if it was free or $0.99, either way he didn't actually have that many downloads since it was only designed for his class.

That said, the students loved it. And, he could also update the app as the course went along. Finally, although he only made enough through App Store sales to maybe go out for a nice meal, it translated into promotions, bonuses and the like. So ultimately, it paid off.

My main point is: in addition to selling niche apps at a premium, there's also the opportunity to develop cheap/free apps that otherwise help you move ahead within a niche market.

It's rather pointless to talk about the greater population of users when considering whether a programming technology is pertinent. Sure, non-technical users don't use pipes. They also don't do any programming, and are completely apathetic regarding which programs they use outside of a few "core" ones like office or photoshop. In a word, whether Bob next door uses pipes or not is immaterial.

It's a concerned but it's something GPU vendors are claiming they are working on. There has been moves to improve driver security through the ARB_robustness extension and for the browser vendors there is the ANGLE's project as you have said but also plain blacklisting dangerous cards or drivers.

The reality is that web 3D's time seems to have arrived. It doesn't matter if it's through WebGL, Flash, Unity the issue you raised is present in all those solutions. Even Native client has that potential if the sandbox is not watertight.

In all, if we want a more capable web these are risk I feel are worth taking. But that's my personal view.

Long answer: "Economist" is not the country. It would be too brave to say that "Economist" represents any country at all. Another problem: mixing economical, social and other problems into one pot is not good thing to do.

Virtualisation's rise in popularity has caused IOMMUs to start showing up even in some consumer chipsets.

Will HP continue WebOs or will they switch to Android? If they're going with WebOS, i'll buy one.
The rant was about the retry algorithm, which (from reasonable interpretations of the documentation) seems to "clear" (for lack of a better term) the IPN during a successful "response" (the term used in the PDF), but where a "response" seems to be defined as the verification step, not the HTTP request returning a successful status code.

If this were the case (and it seems from other responses to the rant that it is not, but honestly the documentation seems to read as if it is), then it would not be possible to both verify the validity of IPN requests /and/ guarantee that the information is safely committed to one's database.

In essence, and to explain, there are really only two options: either my server commits to my database before or after I perform the verification.

If I do it after, then I might fail (for whatever reason, let's say out of disk space), but will not get a retry of the IPN as I already cleared it.

If I do it before, and the verification returns "invalid", then I have to attempt to undo what I did to the database, which might not be possible, or itself might fail.

Instead, IPN needs to (and I am under the impression from the responses to the rant that it does) clear the IPN retry if the entire request succeeds, allowing for verification to be separate: you first verify, then commit, and finally return a successful HTTP status code to clear retries; here, if your commit fails, you will get another attempt.

> most games developers regularly hand code AI in inline assembly

This goes against any game company I worked. If anything, many are moving the AI code to scripting. Last company I worked had all the AI done in UnrealScript. Before was a mix of UnrealScript and C++ and previous was C++ with bits of lua mixed.

Never did I saw a line of assembly related to AI/Gameplay code in these games. (I was a AI programmer for about 4 years before leaving the industry in 2009)
TeX is an odd case, because it has been replaced in much of the world, with the almost-sole exception of mathematical and computer science academic writing. The vast majority of people doing typesetting of anything else (e.g. books, even at academic presses like MIT Press) will use a newer typesetting engine (one of the high-priced proprietary ones).

My guess is it just takes far too much implementation effort to replicate (or even significantly modify) something like TeX relative to the fairly small userbase of academic-paper-writers. The low-level typesetting-related parts in particular are pretty hairy and hard to get right, so experimentation tends to happen more in higher-level macro packages.

One of the big selling points of Wordpress is
that there is a plugin for anything

Most plugins and themes available are shitty.

I just started a new blog and had to decide: Blogger, Wordpress or Jekyll. I chose Jekyll and I have all the functionality I could need from Wordpress plugins:

The URLs are SEO-friendly by default, Disqus is great for comments, Google Analytics, FeedBurner for RSS stats + email newsletter and I can change the design in any way I want, without limits and without having to spend quality time with Wordpress' codebase.

It's also super fast too, since the content is static and the hosting is free on GitHub Pages. I don't need to care about backing up my articles either, since I always have a full local copy and GitHub is GitHub. I also don't need to care about upgrades.

Bastion on Chrome running natively w/ opengl+mono+nacl

not much info is available from the company right now, but this seems like they're using opengl + mono + google's native client[1] extension (enabled by default in current versions of chrome). this is a huge step for mainstream NaCl adoption + quality games/apps. it couldn't be easier to get native speeds for your app without having to cross your fingers V8 compiles your javascript efficiently.

Canada (still) does some things well but correct me if I am wrong, they are feeling the grip of a conservative movement lately and they are trying to push their oil pipeline onto the USA by threatening to sell it elsewhere cheaper.

The author of that article goes to great lengths to appear neutral and just cover the facts but again, whatever perspective the author is coming from - I don't see too many countries with a working model right now, and the ones that are getting by typically have a big positive in their favor - no massively funded military, so no military industrial complex welfare.
The whole "writing low level code is faster" mentality is WRONG for 99% of apps.

I read this a lot but I don't know where it comes from. For me, 'fast enough' in terms of subjective performance of an application is 'as fast as the current performance benchmark on that platform'. Anything less implies the developer has taken short cuts and creates a bad impression. On mobile devices even more so.

Sure, if your app can be neatly divided into broad sections of performance critical and non performance critical code, then you can save the C for the bottlenecks. But it's hard to know ahead of time where those bottlenecks will be, nowadays even more so with highly interactive mobile apps. Look at all the trouble Google have had making Android scroll smoothly for example.

In a marketplace where users will dismiss your app immediately over tiny glitches and pauses, I'd be inclined to write everything in C++ other than the Objective C stuff.
You are only considering old technology versus new. There are old things that are much better than their newer counterparts. Take S-expressions for instance, or Lisp, or Tex.

These things worked amazingly well, yet managed to be replaced by lesser technologies.

Programming languages show clearly one of the reasons why this happens : the benefits might not be immediately obvious. You don't know what abstractions you are missing until you have taken the time to learn them and express your ideas with them.

In the case of Lisp, and Tex, there is also a huge problem of marketing.

To take your examples :

IPv6 is basically a necessity.

Windows to OS X is not really happenning seriously

SOAP and XML suck so bad that the benefits of REST and JSON are mostly oubvious

Chrome was well marketed, and purports to replace the obviously bad IE. It brings with it SPDY and Canvas.

I think his advice is "good" in the sense of safe. If it is followed, it is very likely that the student ends up in a good place professionally. But, I think he ignores the fact that to become really good at something is not pure grit, but something has to feed your motivation. I'm just as sceptical about "passion" as Cal is, but at least one might need to discover some kind of drive towards achievement. For me it seems to be a particular kind of curiosity to "understand" something difficult, and use it to build stuff. It's not exactly passion, but still one needs the drive, not just a direction that when diligently pursued usually gives good results.

Most security problems are directly associated with passwords. Guess in ten or twenty years, the hole login process will be very different from today. Biometric login systems (probably in the keyboards) and optical identifying system (probably in the monitors) will be required to have an internet account. The hole internet security scenario will change, and most CMSs will have an auto-updater. Joomla, for example, is almost at there. With one click you can upgrade your Joomla Site. Next step: automatic updates for everything, in the core.
