I think we are far more advanced then we where. We no longer require hardware to handle this, and that many people want an open standard that can be easily implemented.
I've never felt that using an app like model for websites was a good idea. Maybe for web services but the website itself, if I have a page for say news. I want it to be self contained... and using shared code libraries...
I would like to point out a few things:
First off these are proposals to the language... They are not official. Nor do I think the community will agree with them.
Secondly Erica Sundan, has before published some code that makes use of Private API's. Confusing some when their apps where sent to apple for review. So I would not trust everything that she says.
Almost anyone who does any cross platform development. C/C++ makes it very easy to write cross platform libraries that almost all platforms can consume.
Agreed! As an aspiring DJ this site is essential part of anyones work flow. A lot of the older music from the early days of the rave seen is not available in digital format and no longer being pressed into new records. So its the only place you can really find and buy it now.
I would be worried about this... its not downloading from Apple's Website.... Which raises a red flag with me as possibly having malicious code. Be wary of such things, and always download from the official site.
After watching the video I don't think it works at all... It just looks like a LASER making a flat shape. The camera only ever shows it from one angle. So I am very skeptical that it actually works.
Brew is not consumer friendly at all. My parents (in their 60's) own a mac that I bought for them. It was a great decision for me as I barely have to support them for technical problems. I only get questions on how to do something. If I was to try and explain brew to them it would be a disaster. Explaining the Mac App Store is far easier.
I use EventBus at work. Can't say enough good things about it! Having spent most of my career writing iPhone apps EventBus is Android's equivalent of NSNotificationCenter, allow for sending of broadcast messages between components within the app.
To be honest most of Homebrew stuff is "bottled" IE its pre-builts most of the time you no longer have to actually build it from source... So its not even really a difference any more!
I see a lot of comments. So Let me clarify I know developing and CS are not the same. I myself am a college dropout. I have no degree but I spent many years in college starting when I was 16. It took me roughly 5 years after I dropped out to get someone to take a chance on me. The point I am trying to make is you can not be taught the basics in such a short time. The theory is so important to what we do. We don't need to turn out people that can code. We need to turn out people that can push our craft further. We are not a commodity!
I am skeptical of "Developer Boot Camps". I think they over promise people that they will be skilled developers when they are done. If you go in with a degree in Computer Science or something that teaches you how to program properly sure you will probably be able to get a job. But the idea to take someone that has never been a programmer and make them suitable for a job is laughable to me. It does a disservice to everyone. And to me are just a scam.
This disappoints me a bit... TicketFly is who Burning Man uses to handle their ticket sales... This news makes me hope they find someone else now. As having such a large company like Pandora behind it kind of goes against its Principles...
I would like to know what they are smoking... he has in no way been disqualified... Sure not being able to raise enough money may hurt his chances of succeeding, but certainly that does not disqualify him from running. And technically he doesn't need to belong to a major party either to run for president. This article was written by someone that does not grasp even the basic foundation of our electoral system.
Am I the only one that reads a head line like this and thinks.... "Thats complete and utter BS" Titles like this are not helpful. Something like "One method we used at xyz to help eliminate bad tech hires" is much better. Also makes it sound less click baity
I also only use 1Password. It supports more than just passwords, it includes Credit Card Info, and App Registration data as well. Its been great to get access to it, and use the password generator at work to generate new passwords every 180 days because of our password policy :(
I disagree with this... I personally would walk out of a restaurant if there were no human chef's or waiters... I don't think the quality or the ability to prepare the food safely can be programmed into a machine... to many factors.
I take issue with the way this article's title. From all the other places including say NPR they said this was caused from a mining operation.... I don't see how the EPA could have "Caused" this. Generally isn't it their job to protect the environment?
