Apparently there have been high level court cases about this (last discussion had a guy posting the case). The 18% extra if portrayed as a "automatic gratuity" is not technically legally required. It was some case about people getting arres

I think it makes a good point on how much time people spend on certain activities. Domestic cleaning/yardwork and Commute times are non-trivial portions of our life you get a hearty time benefit by eliminating/paying to eliminate.

I have a sit stand desk, been tempted to go full treadmill with it. Standing gets a bit difficult to do for longer stretches.

Question, why don't people just use OpenGL ES on Windows/Mac/Linux as well then? It sounds like the right level of not-backwards compatable, yet available everywhere

Are you sure that applies for businesses? Most laws for consumer protection are personal, not business level.

I have done iPhone consulting for years. Don't hand over rights to use the work until they've paid. Assign copyright, don't do work for hire. etc. Have cancellation clauses that detail EXACTLY how the end of the relationship works. Get larg

I've heard this same sentiment from numerous programmers, including many who prefer Linux. I'm thinking this is probably an informed opinion, not an uninformed one, and should probably not be in the negative in votes.

The wordpress people here are being prissy about things outside the licensed code. That's not GPL people, that's WordPress people picking the wrong license. They shouldn't be using GPL if they want that.

I see Chrome appear and disappear for me (fresh install of chrome). I wonder what's up there.

Okay, I looked into it: Chrome disappears and reappears when I toggle down to 12+ Twitter is (mis)labeled at 4+ I don't have flipboard on my iPhone. It did take a second for them to disappear. I'm pretty sure a turning off and on will make

Safari is disabled on the same screen install of apps that allow nudity is disabled on (General -> Restrictions). 500px rated their app 4+, when their app should have been 12+ or 17+ by appstore rules.

This was rated safe for 4+ year olds. Flipboard is not.

The same page that allows parents to disable the install/use of apps with too high a rating also allows them to disable Safari.

500px was set to 4+. See the above link from me showing the google cached result. I think 12+ would have probably let them be okay, but I could see apple requiring 17+

Restrictions are off by default. It's up to the person with money to enable them before giving the device to the person, and periodically confirming they're still there.

I agree about the values of many Americans. I am not one of the people who who thinks boobs are particularly harmful. That said, MANY PEOPLE who have dollars apple wants have those values. So they make a system so their devices get turned i

Parents who buy iPodTouches for their children instead of WiiU's want the parental controls to work. When their 6 year old shows their church friends boobies on their iPodTouch, they get mad and instead buy nintendo.

by gte910h 14y ago
My above comment might get you there. That said: I dislike the single user nature of the devices as well. I understand WHY they do it, but dislike it personally. Also: iPodTouch costs about $200, which is the same as a handheld gaming hands

When doing MDM (which is the vast majority of my experience with this), they disappear after a couple minutes or a restart. Did some apps disappear? They reappear after you up the rating again (and annoying lose folder position, which is wh

I did look at the picture, and intentionally picked it for humor and inclusion in my permanent HN comment history. I don't think any 4+ year old would be harmed at it, but I also think the parents of many 4+ year olds wouldn't want them ban

It will prevent a lot of 14 year olds, not all of them for sure. Either way, Apples goal is to make the stock software prevent it. Also: iOS6.0 JUST got a JB. 6.1 is about to drop I am a realist: I think parents will often care. Many othe

>Instead, the rationale from Apple and defended by you and others is that it is better to make the entire app 17+ Yes, then parents can give the device to children, turn on whatever restrictions based on those ratings, and have it work,

Apple doesn't change ratings, or to my knowledge, any metadata about any of the apps.

The app was rated 4+, yet would show pictures of naked people http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:itunes.... I think trying to paint Apple as bad in this case is pretty crappy, as it's very clear what the different rating

To take water from the surface of the earth, separated or not, you have to spend a CRAP TON of energy. Moving the fuel to release such energy to space is almost by definition cheaper than moving the separated storage medium.
