As the browser has been heading towards the capabilities of Flash, Macromedia/Adobe long ago added a layer on top of Flash for application development similar to HTML called Flex/MXML.

"You will use your PayPal account to pay HP for things like PayPal Account update fees and annual developer membership fees (free for a limited time)." I'm signing up now but will likely cancel just to avoid any big charges in the future.

The visual style is such that it looks like a painting viewed through a sand storm through a camera with a lens smeared with vaseline. It looks amazing initially but literally is painful to look at for any significant amount of time. I thin

On a related topic, the author's game LOVE is worth checking out -- a very evolutionary and programmer oriented (no surprise here) approach to game development. Check out this demo a few years ago of the tools he created and of the game. I

I'm curious where the wealth that is nearly equivalent to the combined average salary of a quarter million people will be going. I guess that means I'm a bad person.

Regarding the money that Jobs seemed to withhold from Woz, I believe I've heard Woz say either in his book or interviews something to the affect that Jobs turned him into a millionaire so what does he have to complain about. What surprises

How do you plan to handle the quality of answers over time as products change? For example someone asks for recommendations on the best android phone. Today there may be a couple best answer but in the near future those best answers would l

Likely but by that time we probably wont care because we would be able to sign up for a car online, tell it how many occupants, have it pick us up automatically, join on to other vehicles to form car trains on the roads for optimal efficien

I think those savvy enough to have pounced on the deal knew what they were buying -- an amazing product for the price. I would have payed more than this for a tablet with just a good browser.

Sounds like an article about my mom. If I recall correctly in the late 50/60's she was a secretary at Virginia Power in Richmond. She took an aptitude test for programming, along with others, and did well then began a 30+ year career progra

Maybe it sounds silly but they do actually want to make the laptop useful without a constant internet connection. IMO the point of the ChromeOS is to run apps in a web browser regardless of whether you have a constant internet connection --

Think of an improved Wii system plus the controller has a screen to view extra info and functionality. Then add the ability to optionally use the controller screen instead of the TV screen to view the full game. There you go.
