Very true. I'm sure ENSIME will certainly make use of it for Emacs, which at some point I'll take advantage of.

From what I've heard, the 2.1 update for Hero is not HTC's fault, but Sprint's. That said, HTC cranks out more Android phones than god, so I can imagine they'd potentially drop the ball on supporting old phones to get new ones to market, if

Thanks. I was trying to be funny by making a ridiculous claim without "knowing anything." I guess it didn't come off as funny. :)

Keyword and default arguments are the most compelling, but also unfortunately backwards incompatible. I'm also digging the delimited-continuations, despite the fact that I haven't had a real need for them yet--still fun to play with. The en

They do want crappy apps. There is no other way they could talk about how many apps they have in the store if they didn't.

I was thinking the same thing. However, it made me respect them just a little bit more. They could have just written a blog post and said... "We're no longer using Flash," but instead, they took the time to build something that a) illustrat

Yes, the codebase. But all of the models and artwork and everything like that are also apparently Creative Commons licensed as well.

Anyone can get 50K visitors in a month. Hell, I got 50K visits to a blog of mine, over 24 hours, for posting about renaming { and } to openstache/closestache. The bigger problem is keeping people's attention after the initial spike.

I don't understand how they are being anti-competitive. They control the entire stack from hardware to software. The fact that you can write any software for their platforms is more of a privilege than a right.

They give away their games, in an ad supported mode. I don't know if people actually click on the ads or not--my guess is not, but during my morning and afternoon commute from Brooklyn to 18th Street in Manhattan, I typically see someone pl

Both Line-up and Flood-it are on Android, and are pretty good. The iPhone/iPod versions of these are much more polished and look better though. I can imagine that if Google is serious about taking on the iPhone with Android, they're going t
