   I don't think they actually get that option unless it was written in the contract that they agreed to on payment of the 99 bucks

   iCloud + CoreData = Pain and Tears and Blood I just change the topic to a different backing store when the client wants "cloud persistance" and says "iCloud" without understanding the pain they're asking for. I agree, completely non-functio

   I just got a Nexus 7 for work. Some interesting transitions, etc, but many apps still look horrible and scrolling is still painful to watch.

    I assumed people would take this as nefariousness, so "just a cache" instead of "crazy apple plan to steal all your info"

    I'd love to see a chart for this. My needs are multiple computers, native apps for multiple devices, syncs across all, and can deal with multiple google sign-in or use another mechanism entirely.

    They very likely DID do something to bring up servers quickly. I bet they can spin up stuff like NA East 3 rather fast. Just because there is a DB somewhere who can't handle 2304982309482 people trying to slam cheetah mode while 230492340 a

    They're not necessarily using it for what the bottleneck is. They might do raw compute there, but are locked on a DB query or write that's hosted internally or that just is taking awhile to properly partition.

    The server side component is not solely drm. It is similar to WoW and League of Legends in that it actively correlates between different cities and does some of the processing. If the servers were just DRM, do you really think this would be

    Instead, require they escrow the server code/DRM and it gets released if they shut down the necessary DRM servers

    I'm pretty sure the DRM aspect of this entire thing is very secondary to the "significant server side work being done" Yeah, servers are overloaded. Join the club of every other MMO ever. They won't be in a few days.

    The FA's point is that the 9/11 attacks were done with BOXCUTTERS. I understand why they think these knives are still an issue, but I think the training doctrine of "don't obey the hijackers" has changed all that.

    It entirely depends on the language as to the level of acceptability of using exceptions for control flow. In Java, it's moderately routine to get a random exception or two that you recover from and go along your way merrily. Python simil
