So Windows Phone is well and truly dead (excepting a tiny handful of Windows 10 devices). There it lies, buried in the graveyard of failed smartphone platforms. Cause of death: Android. I don't know. Microsoft did a pretty good job of it themselves.

Count me in the tiny handful. 
I have a WP 10 and I love it!
I tried an Android for about 6 months after I broke my WP 8 and needed to replace it. Within my family we have iPhones, Androids and Windows phones, so I thought I would try the Android out for a while.
I'm a fan of the live tiles and the ability to size and position them on the home screen. A significant amount of information is readily available. and when I thought about it, all the laptops at home... run windows... tablets at home... run windows the computers at work... run windows. It just made sense to have a phone that runs windows. It integrates nicely with other devices and shares settings across them.

All I'm saying is what is wrong with having 3 options?  That way, the tweens can have their iPhones for snapchat, the hipsters and granolas can have their droids, and business professionals can have the WP.
Additionally, I don't understand why iPhone owners are not as mad  as hell? I mean Apple can't seem to get their phone right, they feel the need to release a new one every nine months.

Back in 2016, when Microsoft announced that SQL Server would soon run on Linux, the news came as a major surprise to users and pundits alike. Were 'kicking' and/or 'screaming' involved?

We'd suggest simply calling it version 1709 instead. "The United States and Great Britain are two countries separated by a common language."

It's only called "fall" in North America, so technically the headline should be: "Because English isn't the same outside North America, ..."

A new software system helps robots to more effectively act on instructions from people, who by nature give commands that range from simple and straightforward to those that are more complex and imply a myriad of subtasks. So, it will open the pod bay doors?

This post was born out of my frustration with names as identifiers, and in particular, the rigidness of once chosen names in a field as malleable as software development. "An individual's thoughts and actions are determined by the language or languages that individual speaks."

I don't think determined is the correct word, but certainly limited or influenced.

But Mr Turnbull said Australian law would prevail over the laws of mathematics.
He told journalists: "The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia."
