Apple isn’t forcing anybody to do anything. Not only do you have other options, they’re not even the biggest fish and they’re not trying to be.

As I was reading this post I was about to reply with something similar but you nailed it. The vast majority of software written isn’t there just to be pretty, it serves a business goal and as long as that goal is met (on time!) and the cos

The operative difference that the person (and your quotes) highlight is they shipped a solution “that works” on all the devices you care about. Using a standard technology is a good idea on paper, but I’d rather get something that “just wo

Let’s say all that is true, I more or less agree, but it’s where the two parties differ that still matter a lot. It’s nigilistic to say because they’re similar in many ways that they’re the same and it doesn’t matter, for many people, esp

Bad programmers have no problem getting hired because the broken hiring process in our industry rewards those who know how to do the right song and dance (data structure and algs) independent of how good they actually are. I know, have wor

That’s what he is talking about though, “You only live once” is a selfish (no negative connotation intended) sentiment. If you have a wife, children, debts people are expecting you to repay then to some extent you need to deal with some ad

$27,000 / 270sqft is $100 per sqft for “new construction” which is really low and 270sqft is really tiny, bit too tiny to have guests stay over. I agree $400,000 is too much but there are plenty of sub $100,000 properties in the Midwe

What does “never be able to run a legally licensed os” mean in this context? I am an iOS engineer and avid photographer: I work on a Hackintosh, I develop my photos on my Hackintosh. I’ve had 0 problems with this setup and it cost me 1&#x

The problem is dine in food (catering etc) is 50% tax deductible, dine out food is 0% deductible but having your own in-house restaurant is 100% deductible. None of these articles mention this issue, plus any meal subsidies would not only
