It just means no dynamic allocation. This is not an uncommon restriction for certain classes of embedded systems (engine controls, avionics, medical, etc.) I've worked primarily in this environment and haven't found it to be too much of a n

If you’re not paying for it, you’re not the customer; you’re the product being sold. I don't think it has 'failed', as the article states. Paying for the software is necessary but no guarantee. If we slide back to everything being free, t

Rude. For as much as the guy loved Sparrow and how it has "added a lot of value to [his] life" for $9.99, good luck finding a "congratulations" or even "thank you" in the post. Instead it's a bunch of complaining about how he is now denied

Fraud? Scam? In any case, I suspect the victims could successfully get a refund from Apple. I also suspect that the people who bought it are going to decide that the app is great, the Sparrow statement about "we will provide support and cri

Many sites carrying this news are filled will comments of the sort, "... and then <company> COPIED Apple's innovation." Forget the world of patents for a second. In what aspect of life is copying good ideas not a good idea? I do hav

PTO was a part of my negotiation when I was looking for a new job, but it didn't work out. The job market was worse then, and I was quite keen to make the move out of my previous location (it was a cross country move) so it wasn't worth not
