A bit of bizarre time to release this at, isn't it? This needs reasonably predictable markets and the economy to work ... both of which are currently lacking. The market yield and the inflation rate are now just two big blurs and the a

What's Michael Arrington up to these days? TC was so completely op 20 years ago, it was ridiculous. Had a tiny startup back then, not even in the US and all of a sudden started getting calls from VCs, including Bessemer and alike. Turn

Hacky and not really fit for production for more reasons than one, but clever and nice nonetheless. Good stuff.

Yeah. This thing outright crashes in SystemParametersInfo() when trying to query if the system supports "full-window dragging". Makes you really wonder what's going on with their QA.

Don’t know about Apple Watch development, but the scope of what you can do with Garmin's SDK is limited, apps run in a VM, ie no native code with respective performance issues and, as important, their developer support is a complete an
