Slashdot is well-known for the quality of discussions. Minus, of course, trolling anonymous cowards. Here is a quote from the comment to give you the sense of how clear some Slashdot users can express themselves:
Did you actually try to develop anything for Symbian?
Well, I did. And let me tell you this: Windows APIs, complete with their haphazard organization and historical baggage, lunatic bugs and arcane undocumented extensions are an example of Reason and Logic, when compared to this positive 10 day old vomit which is Symbian. Any ole Linux API is like an Extatic Symphony of Cosimic Joy, Eternal Purity and All-Encompassing Sanity, next to this 10 day old vomit which is Symbian.
I would have a lot of hard times, if somebody asked me to translate this to another language…
ha ha ha yeah I liked this one as well…
Microsoft and even Linux = software guys writing stuff for all hardware.
Symbian and even Palm = hardware guys writing software APIs.
Choose your poison…
