Yes all of these request the mobile page. The big problem with html5 development I find is that mobile phone developer have no reason to make browser good enough so that web apps can compete with mobile app. I mean why would they intentionally undercut their own business.
Kind of funny, but true we have to many buttons. Someone submit a application for a keyboard with less keyboard o YC. Also getting LL Cool J was a nice touch.
It seems like groupon goose is cooked the model was flawed. I don't think it started out as a ponzi scheme, but now it seems like what it will be known for. The bubble 2.0 will live on groupon may even live on as different startups which learn from it's mistake. Unless they learn and change this is bound to fail. They went to IPO to fast anyway for my taste.
Native Mobile developer has been great not liking the way javascript works it has been a heaven sent to have relevant platforms to develop on. Whether it's iOS, Android, or Windows Phone 7 I way rather learn all three languages than one I just don't like. I still have to do web mostly for websites for mobile apps, but I am glad mobile is catching on as it has.
It's the same way for developer you can't find a good developers for the same reason. You need to find both developers and designers who are willing to sacrifice. It's to find designer or developer who want to become startup founders who don't already have ideas to sacrifice for yours. I would say for a designing more so than development freelancing maybe your best option. I would freelance out development because for non-technicals it's hard to tell the difference between good and bad development. Plus looking for a designer it more of a preference based on past work where developers past work might look good and be bad or vice versa.
Well blackbberry you were a tech company who refuse to innovate really I only see on of two possibilities become a android OEM or fail and get Google, Apple, or some other company to buy your name and patents. It's sad because they had plenty of time, but scoffed at ever lose the smartphone wars with such a significant lead.
They buy the people not the company. Google and facebook need developers. Not the college graduate developers that have only done school project in C/C++ and never manage anything that people want in their life. They need people like the ones who made path because they know the people who made path understand mobile, understand design, and understand how to gain hype. It wasn't luck these guys were on tech crunch they understood their market. That is what is worth 100 million. Some people are academics, but only real test for a great app developer is can you make something people want.
People don't relize that when you marker things to people like face to unlock for android that when people buy the phone that's what they want the app market is proof they want more than just angry bird they want the apps their friends are using. It would make me angry if I wasn't a techy and a bought a new with a OS not know a app could play a game on my brand new phone because it wasn't updated.
I think it should auto update. My mom who has a iphone likes it because she plugs into her computer and she can get all the new stuff she sees on TV. Older people don't understand tech, but they still understand commercial that are marketed to them. People who are techies want to the features market to the lock face to unlock. It's crazy to market features to people and not give them the features for 8 months.
This is true techy people have this option, but google needs to think ourside this market. Android needs to move beyond the 18-20 year old college or college bound male demographic if it's going to grow. It needs to simple enough for your grandma run it. Your phone should update with the latest features as soon as they are available not a year down the line. It's like playing roulette when buying a phone trying to find out which OEM will update there OS on time and which will not.
I doubt that would ever happen typically technology runs a two party system. I would more look to windows phone 7 catching up. The only saving grace of android is that I would say Java developer slightly outnumber C# developers. If they don't change soon and basically actually try administrating the system it might come to an end. Google needs to hiring someone primarily for administrating android not just people to innovate for it.
I think it's obvious that sometimes open is not best. Business at a certain point don't really care about customers if they aren't getting profit. They sell millions of phone if they were to let say charge $5-$10 to people in order to upgrade the OS this would solve the problem. Yes giving upgrades for free would be the right thing to do for a moral human being, but this is a company not a person. Companies have not moral compass and you can't guilt them into doing something.
I'd agree I almost never burn out because I workout everyday. I really believe the studies that says fit people are happier because nothing clears my mind like working out or playing basketball especially after a long coding session.
Even if poltician won't admit it among one of the more negative election season America economy is improving and become less reliant on China that being said we are becoming more confident in the fact that sooner or later we won't need them and that we won't have to keep taking these attacks because of our dependence. Hopefully we can improve our defense and maybe do some offense.
Thanks managing a team github problem sometimes feels like a full time job on top of coding. It doesn't get errors a lot, but when it does they stick around.
This is what I seen from a mobile web apps. Mobile web app sometimes feel unfinished. I would suggest titanium mobile because things like sencha touch don't scale right for android now for ipad. It seems like screens are going to become etter not worst. For javascript developer titanium mobile gives you things native developers use plus you don't have to worry about problem cause by using a mobile browser which still a very primitive compared to app sdk. Until mobile web can give the feel of native apps I don't see android or apple making the mobile browsers better just to undercut there own profit so people can right html5 websites.
I think the bigger misunderstanding is people screaming that it's better for Google customer if they delete the data. People forget with all google does it's still a business. Forgetting that businesses aren't good nor are they evil. Businesses are greedy which they should be. Google being the worlds largest advertiser uses your data to make the money that their businesses is built on. So why would they delete the core functionality.
This seems crazy. Business are built to make money not to be logical. This would make customer happy, but I think that aspect is secondary to making guaranteed money. Plus if we lock people in this way it would make it hard for new smaller companies to come in like a Metro. They are smaller and cheaper, but we should give bigger companies control over if they can compete. I don't dislike big companies, but I know they aren't good or evil also. They are greedy as they should be.
If they actually do this it could revolutionize the internet. If everyone gets a internet drone we could build internet networks in the harshes place in the world.
I like go. As a guy who really doesn't like javascript I like the structure of GO. I like really structured languages. For anyone who like the mobile/desktop type of programming this seems like a refreshing change.
Yes I am a senior in college and some people don't like the way I type. That is one of my fears that I will get a grammer nazi who cares how things are typed or a boss at a startup thats a jerk. Without a degree it would be difficult to find someone else. I'm not sure how a degree would make my grammar any more align with ideal north american lexicon, but it would give me better flexibility to quit a company.
