In the time window just before release apps with WatchKit extensions went from "Waiting For Review" to "Ready for Sale" in less than 24h with the "In Review" time lasting less than an hour. Now we're back

This is the kind of thinking that worries me: "The effort involved to create a Glance is minimal, so all watch apps should bundle one." ... And I'm guilty myself of this. The glance board (or whatever you call it) is the new

WatchKit is "refreshingly" limiting. I'm building a new iPhone + Watch app from scratch & I have found that the limitations of Watch tend to spill over into the design of the companion IOS app. You start to think in terms

AFAIK Apple is not accepting apps with Watch binaries? (You still need to use the beta version of Xcode to create Watch Apps & Apple does not review apps built with beta versions of Xcode)

Nothing else explains ... what about "culture"? "Services" is a bit of a curse-word at Apple. The cool kids at Apple are in product design & UI. If you are top-notch backend/services talent, who you gonna join?

I very much doubt those iOS devices are hooked up to Chinese credit cards. In fact, I bet that they are set up to cycle through a series of credit cards.

Your trust in transparency ultimately boils down to trust in people & I, for one, sure as hell do not trust people, especially people in power.

& that's what happens. In my home country Belgium, a company needs to spend 2.5 EUR for each 1 EUR an employee makes net, making hiring effectively a last resort solution.

This is doubly true for developers: separate out your marketing website and product. Spend less than a day on your initial (!) marketing presence and the rest of your time building the actual product. It's oh-so-easy for devs to get pu

Well, with all the nationalism I guess they WANT an intranet. And I think they can probably pull it off. The Chinese Intranet is pretty good actually & there's a lot of pride in using home-grown services and hardware, just count th

Agreed 100%. The media you (choose to?) consume has a profound influence on how you think / feel / react. The only way to win this game is not to participate. But that makes you a loner, "anti-social" etc ...

Thanks. That's cool & would alleviate the pain a bit I guess. The thing that drove me nuts is that Slack was blocked, but I guess I could have run that from within a private browsing app like the one your recommended.

How do you handle access from mobile devices? I found managing a VPN (from iPhone) more trouble than it's worth. Moving between networks often dropped the connection long enough to kill the VPN.

Yep, as always money buys everything in China. I was wondering how the smaller indie IT people do it though: to me it just seems like a cat-and-mouse game not worth the effort.

Serious question: where do we start when we want to fight this? We made it through the industrial revolution because people stood up for their rights. I'm at a total loss for where to start. (Edit: grammar)
