That sounds like a function of the people you've met tbh. Looking at job postings around these parts, the most widespread platform remains .NET. Whilst the non-existent adoption amongst startups doesn't necessarily bode well for MSFT's futu

Sure, ideally you'd want your app to work on all phones. But just as developing for any other open platform, attempting to reach 100% compatibility with every device combination is both insane and unnecessary. A range of 5-10 devices is usu

Yes, but I've also seen how cheaply a number of other conferences/events are able to run in the same or comparable venues.

Any chance of having a mailing list for new job postings at some point? Looks like a sweet board though!

But don't the controls that overwrite handling of the hardware back/back buttons apply equally to the software buttons? And if there's no other way back out of it, the multi-tasking app should be redundant by default.

Just wondering why it's seemingly limited to US only at the moment? (Or at least, not the UK).

It looks good, but it would be much better if you used the right font for the text.

I'm not sure in which update you're referring to Facebook sync being "broken", but this was purposefully removed from stock by Google in Android 2.3.3.

But isn't saying "You're not dressed in line with our code for dress and appearance" the complaint here? I thought that with respect to low-cut/suggestive tops, the problem was never that they weren't professional clothing (with respect to

Does it matter? It can still be the complete account of someone's reasoning for wearing particular clothing.

I agree too (though I can't remember the last time I myself had to use Flash on my phone); but it doesn't feel like an entirely unreasonable argument for not supporting Flash.

by estel 15y ago
Isn't there an extent to which forced deprecation of software like Flash might hasten the uptake of newer technologies like HTML5? Fortunately iOS already did most of this on its own. But reduced support can always encourage more websites t
