Could they not simply charge 130% for books purchased through Apple's system whilst offering them elsewhere at a normal price?

You don't get throttled if you have XXL, though.

It'd be great if someone could explain to me why python with WSGI is "slower" than C# - I know C# is compiled to bytecode, but from what I've seen, websites are slow because of their I/O and database access, as opposed to the actual languag

This editor is cross platform and many of us already use it.

Autocomplete is awesome. Two ideas: * Option for it to come up automatically instead of with a key combo. * Taking colours from the active colour scheme. Keep up the good work!

I've used Sublime for a couple of years now, still evaluating (I will buy it, just not while I'm a student) it and saying "no" to the dialogue every other save or so. Heh. Anyway, I made a theme that's a mod of Twilight but in my opinion fa

The fact that it's cross platform is downright sexual.

Are there any guides for using PostgreSQL in a scaling environement? Things like: Configuration for optimum performance, distributing loads/clustering, replication etc. I'm using it for a few projects that I hope could draw a lot of users a

I remember getting a £30 ZTE phone on 3 that did texts, calls, and had a fairly rubbish but workable browser. It wasn't complicated, it was small, light, and the battery lasted forever. It was a bit slow but for £30 it's a far better bargai

More expensive than a phone that can do more? Laughable pretentious rubbish.

That's one thing I've never got - the market has been out, what, years now and still they haven't bothered to sort out selling in other countries. What gives? Google is a giant multinational and even if there are legal issues, that's the re

Lets just hope it doesn't fall over like that other one. That said, it does remind me an awful lot of Total Annihilation when you get about fifty construction vehicles to make things damn near instantly.

This is a really interesting blog. I've e-mailed you, and from a dev who has never really made a site popular (other than getting some Chinese restaurant site to the top of google search by pure chance), it's given me some wicked ideas alre

1. Buy coffee. 2. Take receipt. 3. Go sit down/move to area in which you intend to drink coffee. 4. Scan barcode. 5. Enjoy coffee. I think people are ready for QR codes - they've worked out self service tills over here in the UK, and if the

What a miserable, pointlessly negative article. It's not a terrible site, it's not up to you to judge their casual approach, and it's not like you're paying them money. Why didn't you spend the time writing this article running around a par

Also the fact that Facebook have made accessing vast amounts of information, organising events, and communicating far more simple and intuitive than any system previously available. Much as there are things to improve - there is no place on

Aye, that comment stuck for me as being absolutely absurd. I'm a coder, nerd, etc, but I use Facebook to organise people/events, and as a simple way of reaching lots of people at once (for events), peruse comical photos etc. I've never used

Another interesting read. Not sure where they were going with the anti-liberal tangent, but ignoring that, it's quite a clever look at things. I would say that it needs to be a bit more in-depth than simply discounting 1st/2nd generation im

What is the advantage of Redis over something like memcached + a RDBMS?

I do think that the split would be an interesting idea. At my university, our first year programming class was divided between people who found it too hard, and people who found it way too easy.

Thing is, this is a perplexing problem - my SO teaches at a school that has a "computer club" where they do such things, and it has a lot of female members, but there's a distinctly bizarre issue of girls interested in computers at Secondar

I'd hazard a guess at the fact that because Google is so prestigious, and because engineers there are reputed to be intellectually brilliant, people don't want to seem "dumb" in such an environment. Which is mad, because knowledge != intell

This was one thing I was starting to really dislike about the article - as if they hadn't quite plugged the output into the input. It's rather a chicken and egg - it was obviously started by many years of oppression, but now both the cultur
