We should remove Comodo from our trusted CAs
IANAL, but wouldn't Jeremy's 50% be relative to the time he left the company? No reasonable person would assume a co-founder leaving a startup would retain 50% equity.
Re:Android N’s freeform window mode on Monday March 21, 2016 @01:40PM (#11329977)
That's true, but for smaller screens and only one or two apps per screen (in split screen view). I think the goal of multi-window might be to support larger display extensions (e.g. plugging a 24" display into a phone)?

I also use a tiling window manager on Linux, but I think Google's decision here is based on the general public - who probably aren't ready to learn a new window management scheme. For window management, overlapping floating and resizable windows are the norm, and I think will be for some time.

I think part of it is due to the fact that Google has greater access to a broader audience. Not everyone will search Twitter for "Donald Trump" but they will certainly search Google - so Google is providing a way for the candidates to take advantage of what is already happening probably millions of times every day.
