well, are you going to try it?

Since it's impossible to fully track the wealth of the worlds wealthiest people, I'm just going to go ahead and speculate. 0.0001% of 6 billion = 6000 people. I would say that 6000 people easily control anywhere between 20% and 50

Actually, probably not. Sometimes I still make an app that doesn't do too well. I guess this is the downside. To get started you have to be prepared to make several apps (maybe even up to 10) to be reasonably sure you'll start get

For me I tend to earn between 120k and 240k USD / year, but I only ever work part time on that job, I used to just spend about 3 months of the year on it, but during those 3 months I would do 100 hour weeks. I'd spend the rest the

Personally I made some websites and started selling my apps from then. I quickly started making more than most salaried jobs and get complete control without having to be horrible to anybody. I don't understand why more people don&#x27

If you're looking to train your neural net for a specific narrow category, then you cannot beat something like tensorflow and training it yourself (and it's very easy: https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/maste

Right, Apple DID NOT make LLVM. They just hired the guy that did (Chris Lattner) well after it was fully established.

thought_alarm got it right. The experienced developers probably use open source editors / debuggers, unsuitable for the masses. Not an Apple-only tool, but still not XCode.

>I’m thoroughly convinced that Apple has an internal-only IDE that they use that is far better than Xcode and is actually functional, much like the internal Radar tool. That's an interesting point and it makes a lot of sense. With t

And although 3D Touch is almost entirely unused by almost everybody as far as I can tell, the actual physical implementation of it is brilliant. I wrote this: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/3d-touch-explorer/

Sorry for being unclear, I didn't mean to say that it was based on my kernel extension. I meant to say that we both based it off of the same kernel extension. The extension in question is called kAuthORama and is provided by Apple. (no

Sure, that should be possible. Considering the failure of my OS X version I'd need to see some demand for it beforehand.

Yes, it is. And that was just a simplified example. In practice if you were running something you were very distrustful of, you would block access to almost all of its file access. You also wouldn't leave it running for long enough to

That's the beauty of it. Take the keystrokes example you gave. Run it. Allow it to monitor your keystrokes (by clicking "Allow" when it's doing stuff related to that). Allow it to create the file logging your keystrokes,

Yes, the file access part of this product is exactly what I wrote too. They even made it with just the same codebase, inside the bundle "HandsOff.kext" is where all the action is. It's commendable that these guys have made it

I once wrote a kernel extension that intercepted any and all file open()'s on OS X. If the application in question was opening a file that it was not whitelisted to do so, it would bring up a modal dialog box asking whether or not this

that really depends on how you're showing the data. if you wanted to make it visual then a python program could be ideal.

you could get it running on a raspberry pi. it's quick to run image recognition and so forth. it's training it initially that takes a lot of computing resources.

Right, but isn't this only referring killing old immune system cells, but the treatment in this article is referring killing old cells throughout the entire body?

This reasoning is all based on valid, but technical issues for the hosting side. A general rule for any customer-facing business is to put the customer first. I could list 200 different reasons why you should make the customer register an a

The fact that f.lux is free does not mean it is not a business. Even though it is free they would be a multi million dollar business from my estimate. And Apple are indeed trampling on it by doing what they did. I'm not commenting on t

As another kiwi I couldn't agree more. It has been sickening to watch NZ bend over backwards to serve the USA. This has nothing to do with copyright infringement, and everything to do with bending over for the USA to maintain its benef

Anywhere in the USA who has to pay USA power prices is going to be at a disadvantage by that alone then. It would seem that locating the hashing equipment to the place with the cheapest power possible would be a logical step when things sta

This looks really interesting and extremely useful for a program of mine. Has anyone tried this in OS X?

It also doesn't need much air conditioning. And when it does, it's because the sun is out.

One solution would be to implement upvotes/downvotes on github pull requests.

Whenever I pictured the kind of person who posted reaction gifs to a thread, I imagined some 14 year old kid trying to be cool. Now, seeing this on github, I can only spend a few minutes clicking on the gif-poster's names and taking a

I would love to go to WWDC. However isn't having the honor of paying the 2k or so a bit like winning lotto? I mean - since you have to enroll to be (hopefully) selected as one of the lucky few who can attend, and if you're selecte
