Just bought your app for my IPhone. One comment: the app is not searchable on Fast Customer, only on FastCustomer (no space). If you just added Fast Customer to your description, it would be searchable.

You presume that the 199 bad developers are american and adding immigrants to the mix will improve overall quality. But if we follow the article's logic, we would be adding 199 bad immigrants to the 199 bad americans already here. So instea

The poster of the question is a developer. I answered to help get the information he asked for, not have my answer graded on completeness or lack thereof with a curt "Not enough".

The best way to pick a good agent is to interview with several and see what gigs they throw your way. I've gotten a bad vibe off agencies with good clients, and vice versa, so I would ignore any secondary signifiers and look solely at what

Having consulted in NYC roughly 2002-2010, I highly recommend finding a good agency. I got all my gigs that way and they were consistently longer lasting and higher paying than gigs I got through networking. Plus, I didn't have to lift a fi

It should be monitored, because I don't like children getting addicted to video games. Exactly. Instead of a blanket "keep your kids away from electronics", why not add parental controls where kids have access to educational apps but not

Something tells me you don't have kids, or they are mostly taken care of by your significant other, or you've simply never explored the possibilities. Keeping kids away from electronics can rob them of wonderful developmental opportunities.

Huh? The solution to missing features is to stop using the product? My 18-months old is getting really good at several puzzles on my old iPhone. He also deletes apps constantly, because there is no lock mechanism/parental controls. The fact

I know you want to hear different but it's illegal to use copyrighted music without paying the owners. Those YouTube users who do not opt to set their video to private are doing it illegally. Fair use fro educators depends on several factor

It's not nice to try to fool Mother Nature. To get girls to major in computer science, you are dealing with forces you cannot possibly understand. There can be a reason for a girl in college to take some courses in computer science: Look
