You're absolutely right, but after so long some interesting issues start to pop up. If "dajza1.com" was able to be seized on the premise that they had released a specific set of songs, on what grounds could a new domain be seized? "ICE, a b

Maybe I'm being a bit glib here, but what's to stop the folks behind Dajaz1.com from registering, say, Dajaz2.com and picking up right where they left off? It's not like that domain name was primo real estate, and if they truly weren't brea

I hate being that guy , but this presentation has been linked to so many times in the past couple weeks, usually with different titles. There was a giant discussion just yesterday, focusing on the slide that talks about uploading photos ri

If you're freelancing, you need to read Design Is a Job by Mike Monteiro. It's an absolutely brilliant overview of the entire client/contractor relationship, and how to operate in a way that protects both you and your client from any potent

Not to mention, when will those trickle down to the Windows Phone version of IE?

Doesn't look like that either. There is a Cordova check in JS at the bottom ("// allows to use the page in NON cordova environment") but the files it includes for Cordova appear to be trivial. Theme interaction and switchers and the like.

Agreed. Like I mentioned in another comment, they should really spend more time on modern CSS support and less time on themes.

Ugh. I was afraid of that. Less time on JQM themes and more time on modern CSS support would be so, so much more beneficial in the long run, both for users and for developers.

I checked the theme CSS ( http://sgrebnov.github.com/jqmobile-metro-theme/samples/jqm-... ) and it doesn't look like they are. I wish they had. Interestingly enough, there are a ton of moz- and webkit- animations in the theme, but I don't s

The demo is laggy on my iPhone 4. The "fixed" header and footer don't stay fixed when scrolling; they only jump back in to position after the scroll ends, feels like a pre-iOS 5 Javascript hack. None of the navigation seems to work. Maybe

Fantastic idea, really like the idea of a micro-investment. I have a ton of ideas that I'd love to get off the ground, and could do so in a month or two, but I can't afford to stop taking freelance work. $5,000 is enough to keep the lights

Bingo. I'm originally from Northern Michigan - technically Northern Lower Michigan, to distance ourselves from the crazy backwoods folk in the UP, and from the run-down big city craziness of Detroit and Lansing.

Think wi-fi is cool? Sky-fi will blow your mind! It's just like wi-fi, only it uses satellites instead of terrestrial nodes for communication. That is to say, my main problem with IPS is that it sounds like GPS, but isn't at all the same. O

Considering the fact that he speaks fondly of him outside of that line, I assumed he was being facetious and playing off the common social view of furries as loner weirdos. Not that that makes it okay, but I don't think it was meant to be h

As a freelance mobile designer/developer, fuck that shit . I'd never answer a giant list of "interview questions" and certainly wouldn't complete a "Hello World" task for a short-term, low four-figure job. I can show you live apps I've alr

Wow. I've been aching to learn Vim for years, struggling through the rare occasions I have to use it while SSHing in to a machine. I've picked up more in 5 minutes with this game then I have in all that time. Very impressive!

In my personal experience, jQuery Mobile has been incredibly slow (by incredibly, I mean hundreds of milliseconds of delay between touch events and response, which is unacceptable to me) and is kind of ugly. It feels cheap to me. I wouldn't

Unfortunately, no. You'll need to go a lot deeper to access live camera info, overlay some sort of HUD, and run background processes to process and load necessary data.

On iOS, the webview is certainly fast enough - no lag or stuttering in scrolling or touch events - but I've heard Android and Windows Phone still leave a lot to be desired. I haven't personally dug in to either yet, though.

by 54mf 15y ago
In short, the downsides: - You're limited to the number of "native" hooks you have access to, and cross-platform feature parity is iffy. - Can't verify this personally, but I've heard Android and Windows Phone apps can be very slow due to t

So who do I talk to about getting in on this? Faraday is already somewhat similar to the look/feel of the platform. I'd love to bring the simplest, cleanest calendar app to the simplest, cleanest mobile platform. Call me already, Microsoft.

I'm of the opinion that the "100,000 words of crap" you mention applies to just about every single skill. Not a huge believer in "natural talent", I'd wager that practice and getting that crap out of one's system is the only way to get good

I feel it's worth mentioning that, while word count alone isn't an indicator of quality, the #1 most common hurdle most writers (and developers, and anyone pursuing a creative art) are facing is producing. Real artists ship. 10,000 words mi
