Inform. Predict. Act. That's our mantra on the Data and Analytics team for the services we're building. What interested me is we run the data group like a startup but with the backing of the larger corporation.
I'm amazed! On a whim, I tried installing it to my old ASUS EEE 7" netbook. Everything seems to work! Haiku just breathed new life into that old device.
I also have one, and it's great for office tasks. Nice to be able to fit a functional PC in your pocket. Windows 10 runs decently on it.
The Gizmodo review was negative because you couldn't play games on it. It's definitely not a games machine, although I have been able to play World of Warcraft on it.
It is, but it's also only got intel graphics. You won't be doing any 4k work on it. I have one and it's great for office work, but good luck getting a game to run even 1080p.
I have the opposite problem. I hate GUI bullshittery. With the command-line I can string together multiple tools with options to work the way I need them to.
If you throw in a tool with nothing but a fancy GUI, I can't simply pipe data through it. I have to find buttons to click, search for hidden menus, resize windows, etc. What a waste of time! Give me a man page any day!
He says Excel is superior because it makes charts easier? Guy is in the wrong field. Learn some octave or matlab.
Since this is like the old floppy disk days, where any disk could be infected, would a version of the same solution apply? I'm thinking of the old boot-sector protectors that would announce your disk is clean, thereby occupying the space a virus would otherwise claim. Of course there would have to be something in place to verify this wasn't just malware calling itself a protector.
