The real question is why do they have a box for title in the first place. If they don't want editorialized titles, just have a URL box and use code to grab the title. Then we stop all these meta discussions. (Or we could leave the box

video of hands (fingers) doesn't seem like the hard part here though (relatively speaking, I'm sure it's plenty hard). The hard part is recognizing the input the user wants. Tracking the finger is easy. Figuring out when that

Is it better than a touchpad? My iPad with touch does rotating and zooming really well. I can see this being an awesome technology in an operating room where they don't want to touch things for sanitation reasons. I have a hard time im

This seems like BS to me. I can't imagine myself ever accepting an unpaid internship (or any kind of unpaid work. That doesn't mean I wouldn't do charity work, but I'm not accepting a job for nothing). If there are idiot

BCC doesn't make 250k a year. It's made that all time. It's more like 60k a year per his yearly reports.

>The theory under which Apple justifies an insane valuation... Let's stop there. They have a PE of 7 ex cash. At the top, they had a PE of about 15. Amazon has an insane valuation. Apple does not, and they didn't at the peak. I

That isn't what he said at all. In context, the point was clearly that while he was actively spending time with his daughter, he wanted to be spending time with his daughter. He never said anything about quitting his job so he could sp

Anyone ascribing to efficient market hypothesis doesn't watch the market very much. Was Apple really worth several hundred billion more last year than it is now? Either it was extremely overvalued then, or it was extremely undervalued

Yeah it was pretty much immediate. The volume surge was huge.

While I totally agree, 75% is still pushing it. One might not have a hundred or a thousand good ideas, but 5-10 doesn't seem out of the question. Apple is also my biggest holding, but it is 1 of 10 and only 25%.

No he hasn't. He could, but not yet. We have other payment processors, car companies, solar companies, and we went to the moon over 4 decades ago. Musk is really awesome, but don't discount Gates. Frankly, his philanthropy might b

Simply not true. There aren't enough people who care. Maybe 1% care. Everyone is going to keep using windows, facebook, and google. There are no nails in any coffin for any of these companies.

I have had UPS pick things up from house for an Amazon return before. I'm not sure whether it happens every time or not, or how that is decided. It certainly happens at least some of the time though. Really fantastic.

What are you talking about? Are you quoting someone else? That isn't in my parent comment at all... But since you mention it, while the devs can test their apps, they can't fix them yet. There is no way to submit an iOS 7 based ap

i suspect Apple is well aware that devs don't want beta users to be able to leave reviews. It has been a think since the app store started. They just don't have much incentive to do the work needed to make the change happen. It li

Any details here are likely under NDA. I'd expect most apps to work just fine though as they have worked fine during the other upgrades.

by clarky07 13y ago
That's still BS. most of the bugs are caused by the OS being beta and not the app itself. Once the new version does get released the dev gets screwed because of something he had no control over.

by clarky07 13y ago
It is not a public beta in any way shape or form. The only way to get the beta is to be a developer paying $99 a year to Apple. The "users" do not have iOS 7 and therefore bad reviews based on an unreleased BETA OS should not be a

At 63, 28 years is very likely to be a life sentence. If he makes it, he'll be 91 when he gets out.

considering they have a market cap of 137 billion, those are really tiny profits. Obviously the strategy at Amazon is to grow revenues and invest in the business, but that doesn't mean the parent is wrong. Amazon has essentially had no

They can, but they aren't really. Why would any consumer anywhere care if the apple dev forums are down for 2 weeks. Nobody knows, cares, or has any reason to know or care. less than 1% of people likely. Readers of HN do not account fo
