Considering this is a developer conference, and you need to have a Mac to develop iPhone or OS X apps, it seems somewhat fair to expect someone wanting to watch to be on a Mac.

Maps are fine, searching still isn't as good as google. However, since google maps is available as a separate app now, that is better than iOS5 maps, there's no reason to not upgrade.

The "40% higher conversion rates" for not requiring CVV is extremely suspect to me. Looking at the paper, it wasn't an A/B test, but comparing entire sites. There could be any number of variables causing a difference in conversion rates. On

None of the pages on your site appear to be scrollable on the desktop? It looks like you have an overflow:hidden attached to body, which will prevent anyone from being able to scroll down if their browser is not tall enough.

The objective is to have reusable stages. Instead of letting them burn up in the atmosphere, they land vertically to be reused.

Varies wildly from company to company. Some will keep an eye on the market, and make sure they are paying you market rate. If you're great, they'll make sure you're paid more than market so you don't have any reason to even talk. However, m

Apple airships pretty much everything. If you settle for transit by boat, you're going to have at least 4 weeks between leaving the factory and being in someones hands. Apple pushes to hold stock less than 1 week.

Their normal site has become so difficult to navigate, logo overhanging on videos, slow javascript/rendering, etc. I've visited the basic tumblr site much more than I would normally visit their site.

Funded! Looks very well done from the prototypes, can't wait to see what you guys end up with.

This is no mystery to most of the third world, you just set up your own personal sweatshop.

I'm sure it will work great, until they alter their page layout ever so slightly. Change an id here or there. Then you have to scramble to fix for the new layout while your 'API' is down.

If you want to limit yourself to a 500-700 machine, then do that. You can buy used macs, refurb macs, mac minis, etc. There is no requirement to spend 1200 on a mac to begin development. There is no requirement to get a DUNS number to devel

If the average price of hardware hasn't gone up, which it hasn't, then they have cut costs for consumers. Regardless of where they handle the accounting on their end, cost of ownership has gone down.

Because Apple's cost cutting has increased competition. Increased competition is usually better for consumers.

Yeah, I feel the slight advantages it brings to the table are easily overwhelmed by the fact that I have to carry two sets of images, and use browser detection to switch between them. Even if Firefox and IE picked it up, their older version

I know they're adding Vegas soon, but adding NYC would be absolutely killer. I would sign up immediately for LA-Vegas-NYC.

Looks good, but the textured background definitely doesn't help readability. The lighter grey on the visited text is fairly difficult to read against it.

I'd love to see how much the RIAA/MPAA claim that megaupload was costing them in piracy. Surely we'll see that money just come flying in now that megaupload has been shut down?

So you hate learning the "myriad of keyboard shortcuts needed to get stuff done on a Mac," but are praising the intuitiveness of "hold Alt and middle click anywhere near a corner of a window to start resizing it?"

The big changes Tim Cook is going to make are adding flash to iOS and Blu-Ray to Mac? Are you kidding me? Maybe 3 years ago those would have been big, but both platforms are now getting along just fine without them.
