Even though it's insane all developers will suck it up as Apple has the power (boat load of users) and developers want to make money. They'll suck it up and keep developing what they are developing. From Apple point of view this makes perfe

Why the hell one opens a website to choose password and serve it over clear-text (HTTP)? Isn't that ironic? Trying to make something secure by actually making it totally insecure? (Before someone jumps, even it's JS it doesn't mean safe aga

So how long did it take for crack to come out? He mentions 2-3 months but he never says the actual time, or have I missed it? Because he says they bypassed in a different way maybe it was only 2 weeks.

What a load of bollocks. - If you don't like the person don't help, don't talk, walk away. Save your time. - If you are not going to execute the idea give it to someone else so at least you'll help the world to be a better place (assuming y

Maybe not everyone is aware so I want to point out these issues: 1. Don't use it if the page is over SSL (it'll include external JS over HTTP which means that you are vulnerable to MITM) 2. Don't use it if the website carries "sessionid"s

Many reasons: Look at the sales of PC games and console games. It's clear that PC games are going down. Many companies don't even release PC versions any more. PC gaming is more expensive, you got keep your hardware up to date and that's tr

I guess you can't understand difference between hundred thousand games and a hundred games.

It doesn't matter how Steam is cross-platform as soon as no one bothers to develop games for other platforms. BTW about 10 years later none-console gaming will be such a niche we'll see less and less games, and only lemonade tycoon quality

I've recently read the book actually only first "20~ things" out of it and it's a pretty bad book. I stopped reading after 20. On paper "97 things" idea seems great but in practice it's pretty much rubbish. I've read 97 things a project man

There is nothing wrong with chit-chat :) Actually I do love chit-chat. I didn't mean bad, what I meant they are conversational interviews, they are not focused on teaching you something. The very nature of these interviews is the reason tha
