Yes, but the sale shouldn't end because I just said no. There should be room left for me to be delighted by the product, such that I convert into a paying user. Instead, I feel alienated and not at all interested in trying it in the future.

So strange that your survey basically tells me I'm not a good fit if I'm not willing to consider paying for your product after a 14 day trial. How about let me try the product first and then I can make that assessment?

You still have to pay a minimum of $800 a year to the franchise tax board for operating a non-Californian business.

Nice! I did this too[0], I highly recommend the exercise.

I've followed this curriculum for the past two years and I can report back that it will rid yourself of those insecurities. But I don't recommend following it to the letter. I used it as a starting point for each topic and then found multiple text books, university curriculums and hands on projects that fit my style of learning. For example, everyone recommends SICP, but I had a hard time staying with the original text book. Both Berkley and MIT have great video lectures based on the book and updated lectures based on Python. Watching both of these gave me a good understanding of the core of what SCIP really was trying to communicate. I later went back and went through the book, but used Racket as the scheme flavor and became familiar with that world.

Hah, this journalist is so out of touch with the joke. 420 is the time to blaze it!

All FB employees have a phone provided by Facebook with MDM software.

Would highly recommend photos. Browsing gaming chairs, for instance, I immediately bounced from the page because I couldn’t visually browse the content.

Word on the street was that they were planning on including both TouchID and FaceID in the X, but scrapped it earlier this year due to low yields during mass production[0].

Back pay would be signicantly higher than $20m.

Opera has been using WebKit as their core engine for the past couple of years.

> And there's been a strong reaction from those who are heavily invested in SVMs/kernel methods, bayesian methods, etc to claim that deep learning isn't theoretically well grounded (which is not really that true any more, but is also beside the point for those that just want to get the best results for their project.)

Could you elaborate more on what has changed recently in the theoretical grounding of deep learning?

WhatsApp will not hand anything over because they can't. This article fails to investigate and explain the reasons why, rather casts fear and hate on the reader by making US tech companies look and sound unreasonable.

These lists leave out some important frameworks these apps are built on. For example, Pinterest links AsyncDisplayKit. I'm curious how this data is collected. If Keyword matching against known popular public frameworks, it might be worth expanding your queries to include all public CocoaPods.

I would love to buy a wall print like this.

But majority of their long-term success has been attributed to their ability to borrow money from larger banks like City. The growth of Virgin Records could not have happened without their battles with the banks.

Yes it's a real guarantee. I have exercised it in the past and they are quick to refund.

I very much enjoy using NProgress.js (http://ricostacruz.com/nprogress/). Very similar to this library, but with the added benefit of a random increment function that allows you to show progress without knowing the specific position.

It's native. Zuckerberg has self-proclaimed Facebook to be "a mobile company."

The interface literally does what you just listed but backwards.

Doesn't seem to be updated since August. Is it a scraper, or do you enter the jobs manually?

I built something similar recently to flash a light every time someone buys something on Creative Market (video here https://vine.co/v/bTnnTVmH5eD). I know nothing about mains electricity, so I pulled together an Arduino and a LED with a bit of socket work to get a green light flashing. Once someone completes a sale, a piece of Javascript is requested from a Node.js HTTP server I setup. The server then pings the computer with the Arduino plugged into it over UDP and the client sends a serial response to the Ardunio, flashing the light. It's pretty simple, but it was fun to get all the components together and learn more about hardware development. Since a flash of the LED is requested on every sale and the UDP responds pretty quickly, it acts as a great thermometer during high sales peaks.

I'm now in the process of abstracting the entire thing into a self-contained box that communicates over wifi and uses mains electricity. Hopefully I don't kill myself.

All those years you used to make fun of me.

Where can I get that t-shirt?

His response reminds me a lot of what I have read in Valve's employee handbook (http://newcdn.flamehaus.com/Valve_Handbook_LowRes.pdf) in regards to their developer culture. By what I understand, Valve has established a self policing system in which every employee has complete autonomy over what they decide to work on or contribute to. Gabe Newell is emphatic about the flat hierarchy of Valve and its peer-review system that replaces the need for managers. I've struggled to understand why this has been successful for them as an influential video game company, but it appears Jobs' insight underlines a similar truth. Good developers are not only great problem solvers, but managers in themselves that comprehend the work needed to be done and are willing to work with those smarter than themselves to see it done.

Friend of mine has been using this protocol for the last couple weeks: http://cultofmac.com/church-puts-faith-in-iphone-streaming-t...

I don't think this guy understands how simply amazing Cocoa is. Yes, maybe a designer couldn't learn Objective-C, but my goodness is it a beautifully designed framework.

Everything he lists is simple and stupid when you understand how to build iPhone applications.

"want slightly different buttons in a snap? Just photoshop it and you’re off"

HTML and CSS? It's pretty easy to develop a beautiful UI in Photoshop and simple slice it up for Cocoa. When going back into CSS development, I'm frustrated because of the need to move things around by a whole bunch of divs and styling all that type.

He then continues on about server side administration? Hell no. Personally, I'm glad I can just make an app, deploy it, and not have to worry about the e-commerce, server maintenance, and running costs.

If making iPhone applications were like this, I'd die.

Here's a tip. Build it without paying anyone. Make it yourself, or find a team who are willing to work on your word--that is if you're an extremely reliable person. Objective-C is a pretty simple language and Cocoa touch makes everything a whole lot easier when thinking up and building applications.

Give it a go, I find it hard to be depressed when writing a good and creative Cocoa application.

This is the most over-used joke I've ever seen as a developer. It's tired and not funny anymore.

If you're really sick of people asking you what to do, then your ability to network and see past their faults is not where it should be.

Want success? Don't be a jerk.
