Well, depending on how optimistic you wake up, this is either a disaster or pretty good news for Hooks :)

We are suffering, but we won't give up so easily. I am in the top 1-2% of Android developers [1], and while I've found it relatively easy to reach decent traction with a few apps (say 1000 downloads a day, or say $1000 a month), i

Well, not necessarily. Starting off with a more accurate keyword (payroll) and then broadening it up as you extend your service (benefits) makes sense to me, and I'm far from having an MBA. Also, the prefix "zen" is being a l

It was solved with a lot of tedious, manual work. I've been using ZenPayroll for the last few months, and I was surprised at how well done it is, how easy it is to use.

Also, that's probably just a few bunches. (I'm guessing only one, but I may be wrong.) Every bunch contains ~10^11 protons. When LHC is running in full, a total of 2808 bunches per beam are expected to be colliding there. That&#x2

Yes and no. Yes: there's a link called "Doc" on the bottom of the page. This is the one for LHC Page 1, which is the most important display: http://op-webtools.web.cern.ch/op-webtools/vistar/Doc&#x2F

Java Swing. Not the fanciest, I know. We had a powerful framework to create graphical elements that display values from the hardware. The previous version of these displays was teletext (do you remember what that is?), with some analog sign

Yes, these public displays (internally called vistars or fixed displays) are a real-time stream. Essentially the same that's being broadcasted in the Control Center (the CCC), but at a (much) lower frame rate. You can navigate and find

A single person can have periods of shipping so damn much, and others of not shipping a damn. I apply a few tricks when I detect I am in a low productivity season (like right now, I hate to admit): - Drop those projects or activities that a

Author here. Just a silly app, but video in Android is not exactly an easy endeavour! This is part of a suite of apps in the space of video effects that we hope to be releasing, and that hopefully gets me closer to transitioning from nights

Definitely, an inspiring story. Comparing "how much of an expert" you can become after a full year of good training in different activities would be a great experiment. Anyone dares to create a ranking with some? (Say tennis, ches

This is so useful for developers with such poor Photoshop skills like me. I love that you can just use a badge with a piece of XML instead of having to import the different resolution files manually. Do they have onClicked/onPressed ef

Well the price is definitely a good one. Then only one, as far as I can tell. What are the main advantages of IntelliJ IDEA with respect to Android Studio?

That's a good idea. We did some research on that and, still, the net revenue we would generate out of those wouldn't make up for the costs either. We started pushing some cool features like auto-magic clustering of photos into mom

We tried at Photofeed, but decided to close it earlier this year. It's not easy to make ends meet in this market: the percentage of users that are willing to pay a monthly/yearly subscription fee is too low to make up for the cost
