Disk throwing has been a standard demo/copy party event since the dinosaurs roamed the earth (at least in Finland). I remember there being a disk throwing compo at Assembly '92.

Well yes and no. Sure, you will take a runtime performance hit if you do a QML UI because all the QML needs to be parsed. But then again, no it's not all javascript and no it will not suck up all of your CPU. When you write simple bindings

RIM's market share in 2010/Q1 according to Gartner ( http://www.zdnet.com/blog/cell-phones/google-android-smacks-... ) was 19,4% and year before that it was a little bit over 20%.

The article is misleading. The original finnish piece of news says the _use_ of unsecured wireless networks is going to be legalized. Having an unsecured home network has never been illegal. The legislators are justifying the legalization w

I've had good experiences with Futurlec ( http://futurlec.com/PCBService.shtml ). I believe the PCBs ship from Thailand so don't expect fast delivery (unless you pay for courier service), but the quality for the price is good (and their oth

I think Symbian (S60) devices have had flash since 2004 or something and they've shipped tens of millions of devices since then. Also at least Nokia's Symbian devices are OMAP based like iPhone. I'm not saying that Adobe's Flash has had a h

It will be interesting to see what comes out of Symbian^4. As the 10+ year old Symbian UI framework is tossed out of the window and replaced by a Qt graphicsview based new one it requires all the app UIs to be rewritten there's a good chanc

The Firefox Mobile runs ok on N900 which has RAM- and CPUwise very similar hardware to iPhones, but 2x more pixels to render. Why would someone want it instead of Safari? I'm sure lots of people use Firefox on their Macs too. Competition us

Naturally it's Adobe's job to handle the quirks when generating the output. I would be surprised, if forcing developers to edit generated code even crossed their minds. It just doesn't make any sense.

by elpuri 16y ago
Yeah of course that's obvious, but is there or is there not a company rule that prohibits employees publicly commenting on company matters like the Adobe guy says? Edit: I just realized that you're not allowed to comment on it if there is o

Of course the question everyone is interested in is are you allowed to publicly comment on / criticize issues like Apple strategy, policies and technologies. So are you?

Probably because console gaming had always been closed and the introduction of x360 didn't really make things any worse than they were. Also the game developers who would like to see open gaming platforms are probably outnumbered by the peo

I've done quite a lot of uC and FPGA stuff already, but thanks for the suggestion. Assembling from a kit and developing own firmware for something like this http://monome.org/devices might be fun. Even if not used as a MIDI controller it

Is it totally out of the question that some people might type in bing.com or have it as their browser's start page? The 42% is MSFTs share of referring sites.

That's not the same thing. Your video shows an app rendering frames of animation back and forth using the accelerometer data. The app in the posting uses the sensor data to calculate the orientation of the device and then uses that to manip

I'm not familiar with all the Android devices out there (I'm assuming that you're referring to Android device manufacturers here), but don't most of them have keyboards and trackballs vs. iPhone's slate design? Seems like two differnet form

I'm nothing more than a layman what comes to things like these, but... What's there for Google? - Google, Apple and Microsoft can afford the license and the fee is peanuts to them. Most likely Flash will be history no matter what codec wins
