The Bosporus. The real border between Europe and the Middle East

The Bosporus should be the border between Europe and the Middle East. In fact small part of Turkey north of the Bosporus should not be Turkey but Greek. This would make the border of Europe much clearer. And would also be better for Turkey.
If a government has the imperialistic central leader disease, not only people in surrounding countries suffer from it, also the nation internal people will suffer from it. It is counter organic.

Localization is not one class, they are four

It is rather stupid that localization and language in web-apps are the same. They are not one, but separate classes.

Selling hardware with preinstalled OS should be illegal If a consumer buys a smartphone or a personal computer, it is always sold with an operating system preinstalled.

Apparently, the Brussels bureaucracy is not really interested in a plane playing field that enables European suppliers to participate in the smartphone and desktop computing market. Would Brussels really be interested in a plane playing field, it would not be allowed to sell end-user devices (smartphones and pe...

Living with Xojo

Xojo is a fantastic, integrated development environment. With it, you can do multi-platform software development. I think there is no faster way to go from an idea to a running prototype. For MacOS, iOS, Windows, Android, WebApps. It can do it all. Xojo as an organization, itself has learned to develop fast. Something they have been struggling with in the past. The disadvantage of the focus of Xojo on continuous improvement with a relatively small organization causes some challenges in the users development process. Frequently it is impossible to finish a project after upgrading to a newer IDE version without redoing major parts of the code. Xojo when it starts up, gives a nice Recent Projects menu, where you can select a project you are working on and want to continue to work on. It does not separate in what version of Xojo you work on for what project, however. So if you have to maintain production code in an older version, the only save way too work is to have separate machines for ...
