In this new release, has Canonical dropped that <sarcasm>ingenious</sarcasm> feature from 12.10 that sent desktop searches to Amazon?

LOL.

Nice IDE too bad about the compiler.

Fair enough, STL.

Still I think some things don't belong in there, MapReduce again being a good example. People I know who use it build virtual infrastructure on AWS or Google's thing, and do big...

I think C++ is in danger of becoming Visual Basic: language level support for everything and the kitchen sink.

C, and to a great degree C++, is a great language because it defines exactly what is...

Some people said they've had issues with closed vendor driver. Fair enough, me too: an AMD c50 based netbook I bought was not properly supported for some time. However my succession of card for...

The best thing the nouveau driver developers could do is to make the driver easier to uninstall after a Linux install.

Anyone who pays good money for a video card and then uses an inferior and...

I don't get it. Hans Reiser has nothing but time on his hands now. Why hasn't he finished his file system?

I absolutely disagree! It is good that Ubuntu sells user searches to Amazon!

If AMD is indeed trying to break into the ARM based microserver market, then it will need some serious Linux engineers.

Unless AMD expects to sell Windows on ARM microservers.

This just proves how wise and intelligent Linus is, just like all KDE users.

Mark Shuttleworth will sell your viewing preferences to the highest bidder!

Looking at the results here and elsewhere I conclude AMD has a multithreading monster on it's hands. Single thread not so great but improved over BD.

I had hoped that Bulldozer would be the One,...

No - the altar boy's tears lubricate the axles.

The pope-mobile runs on Jesus's Love!

It doesn't matter, China has the Three Gorges Dam ;-)

Godwin's Law proven in only three posts.

Still, poster #2 is deeply sunk in conspiracy theory.

Just maybe China did not want to be beholden to Intel?

AMD driver fails your Mozilla webGL demo I take it (I'm at work using an NV box), thus open drivers are generally better?

I say non sequiter.

Also moving the goal posts, unless you claim there...

I have measured cases where the march compiler flag made a significant difference (10 or 20% difference) to the speed of resulting binary. They can make a real difference.

BD being a weird new...

OK. How about the runtime?

What language was the .NET runtime, and the C-octothorpe compiler written in? I'll bet a beer the language is C++ or C. When they are written in C-octothorpe or Visual Basic then you could make such...
