Full real-time collaboration would be so annoying with various latencies. Would be super difficult to set up, but I've always wanted a way to do something like that too.

Sure, that happens. But Reddit has so much more to offer - case in point being the fellow that programmed Solitaire as an intern at Microsoft coming in and giving his personal story as a comment. Reddit is full of shitposts and otherwise te

I'd just like to say that Xamarin's shortcomings aren't because it doesn't match the current platform via its abstraction layer. Xamarin is VERY quick in matching that and releasing updates that provide features. Basical

Limited by a lot of things that processors are already getting awfully close to - quantum interference and the size of the architecture. It really can't get that much smaller.

Yeah but then I still have keys to run home and pick up an extra debit/credit/cash I have and can continue with only minor hiccups.

Meh - maybe. Imagine this scenario: You're out at a restaurant, and you drove there. Your phone dies somehow, either dropped in toilet, or what have you. How do you do the following? - Pay for dinner - Drive your car, since your keys w

That really sucks when you run out of battery then. Just don't understand the fascination to replace everything - maybe that's the Eagle Scout in me, but I'd rather have a backup plan, aka keys, wallet, etc on me than try and

For those saying they can't get it - give it time to propagate through the App Store server caches. Usually it can take a couple hours from a "Ready for Sale" to actually being visible in different regions.

That's a weird statistical interpretation.

It's like that for almost all IDEs. I remember thinking the same thing for Visual Studio, Android Studio, Eclipse...

I recommend https://electrum.org , even though the website doesn't look super awesome. You'll get a "seed" that generates your keys that is 12 words long. It looks something like this: "help staple correc

Thank you for this. I felt like my search terms were being "conveniently" omitted for the longest time just to show me more results instead of more refined results.

Of course. Why would they show you their proprietary code for a totally unnecessary app?

Getting weird bug in Safari (Version 8.0.7 (10600.7.12)) where if I click an annotation then close it, I don't see the rest of the annotated bubbles on the left.

Exactly. Try anywhere not directly in the highest rent-inflated area in the US, or in any moderately rural suburb. Not that difficult to afford a house. Could get a decent 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath starter home where I'm at right now for abo

I live in Huntsville, AL. Where I grew up in Madison, AL, basically everybody in my graduating class had a car. Some were junkers and some were stupid expensive. I didn't have one until I bought one from my parents after my freshman ye

Give him 2-3 years and he'll tell you. Especially once his friends start driving and owning their own cars.

I wasn't talking about that part. I was talking about Notch basically not understanding why people would want to use pictures to make playlists and to identify themselves to friends on a social music platform. He basically said it was

> "This is a bizarre reply. It needs access to them to be able to let you do so. There's NO NEED for anything like that for music." His opinion, but definitely not everybody's. Probably not even a majority.

So every single app that uses location services, ever?

Notch could not have overreacted more. Sure their ToS may allow for privacy creep, but that thread of messages between him and Daniel Ek was so cringe for Notch. He basically doesn't want Spotify to be able to access anybody's pho

Exactly. I'd like to see the perfect security implementations over large scale systems that exist in the software industry today.

Which is why "open source all the things" is the way to go for trusting crypto implementations - or at least it's step 1.

Commercials. And American football isn't like futbol, you can't run around for 90 minutes straight knocking each other out. Breaks are good. Plus the whole thing is entertainment, you don't have to optimize for time - that&#x

We used to do the same thing in 9th grade. Eventually teachers had to go and supervise students who used a vending machine and only they had keys that would turn them on. I also used fake change from one of those "my first cash registe

You can do something similar with iOS as well - as far as handling parts of the url and query. One thing you can't do, unfortunately, is handle any url that starts with http - it has to be custom.
