All my instances across 3 zones are functioning normally.

It's what makes Uber delightful tho. You just hop out and get on with your day. No impatient cabbie with his hand out. It's fine with me.

Better yet: Is there a well defined structure for other folks to add that stuff?

Any of the Nexus phones (new ones are coming very soon) are just great. Consistently supported and updated as well.

I'd imagine it's the very first standard algorithm most people learned as part of their CS education as well. It's easy to implement, easy to understand, and lays the basis for the more complex sorters coming later...

Well sure, but who writes their own sorting algorithms these days anyways? It's important to understand the characteristics of various sorting algorithms so you can choose the best one, but that "best one" is almost always going to be imple

I've asked this as an interview question in the past. It's a great question as it has so many layers. Very few folks ever groked the role the branch predictor plays, but those who did have always gone on to do well.

Not California, but if you find yourself in Denver/Boulder I'd love to show you around:)

They cited numbers, and I tend to believe them. Particularly for certain segments (like cruises). We booked a cruise in 2011 and it most definitely required an agent. There are just to many options and to much to weed through, the agents (w

For me it's subscription pricing. It's expensive and I'm not really sure what it provides that PhoneGap does not.

I think that Henry Ford is a really good comparison. I admire Henry Ford. He was a true innovator. He was everything an entrepreneur should strive to be. Yet he was also incredibly flawed. His shortcomings are well documented. I still adm

It's going to be impossible to quantify "better" anyways. It depends on what you're optimizing for. This research is incredibly valuable in helping us understand the results of TDD, particularly if we're optimizing purely for quality:)

You clearly have never experienced Symbian or Nokia development efforts. Both places where complete blood-baths, at least from my perspective as an outsider working pretty closely with teams inside of both companies.

And Jelly Bean really is a game changer. The difference between ICS and Jelly Bean is profound. The difference between the 2.x series and 4.1 is night and day, they aren't even comparable platforms.

Managerial talent is just like anything else. Truly game-changing people are rare, and when you find one they are incredibly valuable. Product managers most definitely fit into that category. A great product manager is a huge asset worth

If you put two people on the exact same problem, sure. But, software systems are made up of LOTS of problems, a large amount of which can be solved in parallel. That's why it's a platitude. It gets bantered about by developers as an explana

Aren't those turnstiles exactly the solution? In London I used an Oyster card and it worked exactly that way. Scan it once to get in and scan it once to get back out. Works brilliantly.

Except sometimes you CAN throw manpower at a problem and solve it more quickly. All projects are not the same, and all problems are not the same. It largely depends on how parallelizable the work is and how competent the overall system arch

We're not supposed to criticize Apple for straight up abusing patent law because they failed at straight up abusing copyright law in the past?

by enjo 14y ago
They can legally do whatever they want. They've pulled apps before for the same rule. It's part of playing in Apple's ecosystem. As a developer you always take the risk that Apple will decide to wield the ban-hammer, and you basically have

It's funny, I have the exact opposite impression. I loathe picking up my iPad. I get into the browser and open a youtube video. How do I get back to the browser? Go all the way back home and hunt down the icon? Seriously? I want to just che

I have never found the back button to be confusing. The problem is that we call it a "back button". To me it's the "anywhere but here" button. When I don't want to be where I'm at I just start pounding on it until I arrive at something I do

Yep, or you need to build some other construct to support it (IE: keeping running tallies and the like). It's a tradeoff between the benefits of the document store vs the loss of relational data. The blog author here clearly didn't understa

That last sentence is true for every single country I've ever lived in or spent time in. Wether it's highly paid footballers, cricket players, Starcraft players, or some other form of celebrity. Don't pin that as anything remotely close to

That is quite possibly the perfect reply. Are you an englishman by chance? Because the level of snark is just perfect:)
