Good to see Mozilla making so much progress lately. Earlier I gave up on Firefox as the Chrome was faster and better, but now its shiny and solid again! Kudos to the team!

I have seen bad code in my life. Some cases developers don't care about the code ethics OR they are not intelligent/experienced enough to write a good code. But in many cases its the mistake of product managers or leads. When the

I know a few people working on the similar stuff. Old story! Take the idea from new comers and utilize the brand value.

I am sorry for my rants. I admire Apple for so many amazing things they invented. This frustration is not sudden, it took time to build up. And I share this opinion with many of my colleagues and many other developers. This is similar to wh

Considering that Apple doesn't care much about developer's exerience (look at XCode crashes, iOS UI Bugs, shitty UX of itunesconnect portal) I won't engage in any new tool by apple.

That's great! Won't it make the compiled executable platform specific?

I tend to disagree with you. First off it will decrease app disconverability. Second, many of indie developers depend on the incode from in-app advertisement. Now, after the release of AppStore Ads, the money will go directly to Apple inste

I am not sure if this is the place to show code, but here's a small script which can help you remind about looking away from monitor and follow 20-20 rule (only for MAC-OS): while : do for run in {1..5} do sleep 1 tpu

Coming from C++ and iOS world I would say recent C++ has evolved a lot. And I think its better than Objective-C.

You have a point. But today's world quality and polish matters a lot. Point is before you judge make sure you provided good quality and a polished product. The idea matters a lot but if you don't present it well its good for nothi

This happens to a lot of people. Keep on doing the good work and someday it will pay off. One thing to keep in mind is its better to work on one title and keep polishing it than working on multiple shitty things.

do you realize this would crash with empty array: #define countof(X) (sizeof(X) / sizeof((X)[0]))

The article doesn't say C++ is a bad alternative. Just that he did not use it to avoid complexity. And yes C and C++ are distinct. But the simple modules can be written in C, but the bigger ones need OOPS, so generally written in C++.

I write games as well (Written more than 10 games, though they are not very large at scale) and I write them in C++. Reasons being writing networking code (TCP/UDP) is much easier & efficient in C/C++ than any other language I

I tried Goland for two of my personal projects. Initially I thought I will get used to the new syntax, but it never happened. It may have certain performance-edge over other languages but I wouldn't call it a modern language. I find co

Yea, I also think its more about 'feeling of autonomy'. It feels more pleasurable to earn less from our own idea than working on regular job

Try noise cancellation on it. And results may be more clear. I did a project on active noise cancellation using neural networks. It should apply here as well.
