Comment on Fitbit is doomed: Here's why everything Google buys turns to garbage (2019)

Comments

I don't know the fate of Fitbit, although I can guess, but the fate of Samsung's anything connected with Tizen is pure DOOM.

Why does Tizen spell DOOM? It is a huge C system that traffics exclusively in pointers to void. Yes: it is full of typedefs to void*. Do you need to know anything else?

So, in whichever way Google flubs Fitbit, at least Samsung is out of their way.

My question is, what has gone so very, very wrong at Samsung as to have led them to pick up Tizen?

Wait until you write your first win32 program! WPARAM and LPARAM! Integer or pointer or unused?
