kanishkdudeja··on Apple Begins High Sierra Automatic Rollout
Gone are the days when Apple products used to work flawlessly.

Struggling to understand how a company nearing a trillion dollar valuation can't push out stable updates for it's platforms. Even iOS (Apple's cash now) 11 is buggy as hell.

Really strange how big corporations put out devices before testing them out properly!

Thanks. Fixed this in my comment.

I hope they decrease bezels and make it more sexy, like the Dell XPS, in future versions.

You could try out Hackintosh/Linux but not sure how compatible would it be in the beginning.

Issues will need to be tinkered with and fixed.

The stylus and the touch might not work perfectly with Linux.

What issues did you face?
kanishkdudeja··on Introducing Surface Book 2
Can't agree more on this. I wish the fall creators update pushes out some kind of driver update for it.

That's right. But the i7 15-inch line starts from 2500 USD. I think lots of developers won't be able to afford at that price point.

The i5 variant comes with just 8 GB RAM. Would have considered if they had given an option for 16 GB RAM.

Being a developer, 8 GB seems tight these days! 15-inch 16 GB variant comes with i7 but the price is a little too steep (starts from 2500 USD)

kanishkdudeja··on The software engineering notebook
I use Evernote for this since it also backs as a web clipping tool.

Any article I like on the web which I might want to come back to in future, Evernote makes it easy to clip web pages as is.

Can't agree more. Really!
kanishkdudeja··on Explaining React's license
My opinion on why this could now become a practical problem for people who still want to continue with React:

1) This will deter people and organizations from using such libraries. For example :- WordPress.com and many other companies have said that they will no longer use React.

2) Lower usage and application of such libraries means that lesser people will find bugs in them, lesser people will fork these libraries, lesser people will contribute to these libraries.

3) Facebook may itself lose interest in continuing to open source the library. Or add any new features to the open source version.

4) People may get stuck with bugs in such libraries and with no functionality being added to such libraries for years.
