mikenwani··on What every computer science major should know (2011)
This is a really great resource to keep track of. As an up and coming graduate, I'll probably refer back to it from time to time.
mikenwani··on Service That Delivers Money from Your Bank Account to Your Door
I've heard this countless times: "Let's go to xxx !" "Yeah, sure! Ah I have to stop at an ATM first before we do." I see what you're saying that a lot of human beings would just walk to an ATM (no matter how close or far... or they get their friend to cover them for the night), but I think there's also a good amount that would prefer this convenience...
mikenwani··on Service That Delivers Money from Your Bank Account to Your Door
I'm not seeing where armed transport would come into play?

Picture this; by opening an account with our service, we get a gateway into the customer's bank account (much like any other service that automatically takes money from your bank account). When you do a request on the service to get cash delivered, that money (plus a fee) goes to us, which we can now just withdraw and send to you.

Where does armed transport come into play there?

mikenwani··on Ask HN: How do you gents make blueprints for your web application idea?
My use of "gents" was actually a third result: I mean any kind person that wants to chime in, man or woman. I was just being playful.

But I understand that that word couldn't mean anything but a synonym for "men" on the internet, so that shouldn't have been used, my bad.

And thank you for the referral, I'll definitely be reading their blog posts now.

mikenwani··on Ask HN: How do you gents make blueprints for your web application idea?
Why? And admittedly I do prefer the idea of just lots of plain, large printing paper and a sharpie. I just wanted to verify that people more professional than me like to do this method also

Thank you!
mikenwani··on Ask HN: Best (up-to-date) books for learning Java EE?
Thanks for the reply.

That's interesting, the thought didn't occur to me that they'd be using a framework for their web development. Do the large corporations that make money off of Java cloud applications use frameworks for their development?

mikenwani··on Introducing Swift
Noob here. I don't understand... so what happens to Objective-C? Why would you code an iOS app with one language instead of the other? Why would you use both? That just sounds like a pain. Is Swift the evolution of Objective-C or something?
