I don't know why you're getting down voted because what you said just makes sense. I mean, that's what Apple did and no one can argue that they weren't successful. Someone else who worked at MSFT made a comment one of these days saying that

They may have a lot of money in their bank accounts. But be sure, there aren't a lot of available developers capable of producing high quality objc code. So yeah, they need all developers they already have in other to fix their code bases i

Apple would get a huge benefit from integrating their UI code bases, Cocoa and Cocoa Touch. I and a lot of other developers dream about the day Apple will deliver a modern and saner Cocoa implemented with CALayers. If that happens they'd ha

Who said I'd put that little effort in learning something that is actually helpful? But hey, thanks anyway for your concern. ;)

In that case would just be wiser to suspend 80% of everyones driver licenses, because on average people drive that bad sober. Yesterday I almost got hit by a stupid driver while walking my dog. She didn't stop where she was supposed to, in

As you may know, iCloud is written in SproutCore. If you compare the development process and programmer productivity of SC with let's say Cocoa, you'll see SC can't get near Cocoa in these aspects. It's a mess.

Why not? You're trying to say there's no place for humanitarianism in HN? A man was wrongly imprisoned and tortured, had his life torn apart. Now some people need to tell his story in order to get funding so he can get help to get up on his

It's not copy when you improve it. Whenever I use Unity or Win7 I see lots of little details "copied" from OSX.
