   Yes, in the earlier days in each city, they (just pulling numbers from thin air) do something like pay a minimum $20 for each trip if you complete 5 trips within an hour without cancellation. Helps to kickstart the driver supply.

   For a long time, Dolphin Smalltalk was a very good Windows development tool, and probably the best Smalltalk. Fast and native UI, wonderful refactoring support, builds to exe, great community.

   Wow. Thanks for sharing. This is quite nice. If done well, maybe it can enable some kind of playground, cross-platform editing . E.g. an editor on iPad.

   React Native doesn't render UI in a web view as a webpage, instead it uses native components. Some are direct wrappers around their native counterparts, but some components while native are "emulated", eg. ListView is built o

   Ah, Ok. I have been wrong to mention the VA suite of products in my original comment. I have only used VAJ and VAS then. They were (IMO) truly great. VA C++ sounds horrible. Perhaps the other products in the VA suite sucks :) I used Delphi

    I only have experience with VA Smalltalk and VA Java. I used their WebSphere suite of products years later. > I've tried something from VisualAge at that time and it was a pure catastrophe. My conclusion was that it was bought only

    Relevant to those mentioning the build quality of Fitbit devices: FWIW, my wife and I used several generations of Jawbone UP over a few years and, we roughly go through 1 every 3-6 months. It's certainly not Fitbit only. Compared to th

    Unless there's specific reasons (like credit card extended warranty), it's probably best to avoid those chains like iStudio. Third party support via AppleCare has been great though. > Also: There's a real Apple store comin
