This is dumb - really, really, really dumb. What an idiotic policy. This would absolutely stop me from publishing anything on the Play Store as an individual developer.

I'm 20. Am I already too old for this? I use Twitter and Snapchat most days, though my contributions to either of those are limited in comparison to my consumption of others' content. I've deleted my Instagram account and hav

I think you're being downvoted because you got a little too excited while bashing Apple. iMessage is most certainly more secure than plain text in most cases, save for the VERY exceptional case where the NSA might be watching IF they d

There's plenty of flavors of JS that compile into regular JS. Pair that with Node.js and you've pretty much got what you're asking for. There's plenty of people using CoffeeScript on server + client, for example.

Exactly what I was thinking. Being able to apply force at different angles would make for an interesting test for a project like this. Sure it can make you run farther, but can it make you jump higher? What about prolonged ability to run on

The pattern I've seen used most commonly is the latter situation you described. The user authenticates, and is issued a signed JWT which includes their user ID and (optionally - I actually talk about this in my comment here: https:&#x

I think writing your own variation of this at one point is a sort of rite of passage for web developers. I thought I was so clever with my custom PHP framework and sessionless backend. That said, it's done because it works well and mak

I wanted to try a similar experiment, but more extreme in that I'd get rid of my iPhone in favour of a pager. I decided this was probably too much of a hassle and would cause me more problems than it solved. (I use my phone to gain acc

Now, I know nothing about Earth science, but is this not at least a little bit expected given that this is a man made lake? Can I see some pictures of natural lakes in this area? Obviously the drought is bad, because this isn't common

I just opted to mention Stripe and Paypal because PayPal is still the dominant force overall, and Stripe has the kind of API that developers love - a combination that Amazon is capable of creating.

I wish they'd try harder with their payments business - they could be in a position to compete with Stripe or Paypal but instead force users to pay with their Amazon accounts. That doesn't make sense as a business strategy to me.

I agree. When you look at companies like Major League Gaming who are becoming not only tournament hosts, but providers for online competition AND streaming you can't help but ask how popular gaming will become. MLG is already working w

Sounds like you're working 44 hours for 40 hours of pay? (For example: you could have all your hours done by Thursday night, but you still have to come in for a half day on Friday, correct?) If they're going to make you work 40 ho

That's like saying "Oh that cardboard cut out of Adolf Hitler? Yeah that's just for scale." Yes, indeed it is - but there's probably more to it than that. I'll go out on a limb and say due to the presence of My
