The use of the word "charges" here indicates an unwarranted level of severity of these claims. He has not faced any legal charges and the only people making these accusations are those who suffered political fallout from their documents being revealed.
The fact is that there is no evidence whatsoever that wikileaks is associated with the Russian government at all and anyone claiming there is is speculating at best.
Sucks. I had one for years, switched to Android (for the GearVR) and have been frustrated ever since.
Windows Phone is better in a lot of ways, too bad they couldn't make it stick. It just seems like to me they mostly had a marketing problem and they needed to incentivize the mobile carriers to actually try to sell them. I remember going into the Verizon store and watching the sales people actively steer people away from the phones and push them towards Android. I don't know why that was but it seemed like a huge problem to me.
Then if you decide later you want it to be a web app its not that big of a job to convert it.
I have worked on a surprising number of desktop apps over the years, including Visual Studio and Internet Explorer. But even before that, a lot of businesses rely on desktop applications for a lot of their internal applications.
For the last couple of years, as a windows user, I have just been installing Git Scm, which includes something similar to this and have been using that for all script / command line needs.
If this was baked into Windows so much the better! I would love it if nobody ever wrote a single CMD or PS1 file ever again. Let's please all just converge on bash and put this debate behind us.
I was thinking a good startup company may be an open publication and peer review site. Something where users are non-anonymous and they are weighted by their accomplishments irl. Submissions and peer reviews would be open to anyone but weighted heavily by ranking, which is affected by irl achievements and cumulative quality contributions to the site. Like a combination of stack overflow and wikipedia maybe.
Money would be made by donation (ala wikipedia) and paper submission fees. Perhaps organizational level membership fees, such as universities, etc.
