Just curious how much the software cost?

Presumably it costs them money to develop these new features. Why do you feel like you should have access to new features if you are not a subscriber? Usually when I buy a software license I expect to receive bug fix updates for that versio

Is this referring to free apps, paid apps, or both? I've had a paid app on both stores for about six years now and in my experience the iOS version makes about 10x the Android version every year. Many other developers have reported a s

The one place where I've found autolayout makes things much easier is dealing with variable height table cells. Manually measuring the heights of cells is a lot more work compared to using self-sizing cells and having autolayout do it

Xcode 9 has been a lot less stable for me compared to previous versions. It will lock-up multiple times per day during simple text editing tasks, with SourceKitService going bananas until I force quit it.

So you think there's zero chance of collusion between exchanges as well? Isn't there some evidence that bots are currently active on major exchanges? I keep hearing about suspicious activity on Bitfenix... aren't they one of

How sure are you about this? Karpeles has admitted at trial to running bots on Mt. Gox, and such bots are implicated in the rise of Bitcoin's price up to $1000 in 2013: https://cointelegraph.com/news/mt-gox-trial-u

Shouldn't we hold credit reporting agencies to a higher standard than the rest of the Fortune 100 though? After all, they store sensitive personal information about the vast majority of US adults.

Less formality, yes. You don't need $60 plates to host a dinner party when a $2 plate will do just fine. Plus, you don't need to worry about accidentally breaking one.

In the context of this article I'm not sure if it has so much to do with repair and retain as opposed to simply not wanting to own a bunch of stuff that will take up space and never get used. Fine china, silverware, crystal, etc.

Yes, both sides do it. That does not justify or excuse it, especially if your goal is to encourage discussion.

This. Attempting to reduce such a complex issue into a single root cause ("oh women simply aren't interested in this field") is deeply misguided, not to mention intellectually lazy.
