   I'd be interested to see an iOS developer's perspective on when they're going to start requiring iOS 6. From a user's perspective, I don't see any features that are going to encourage devs to drop iOS 6 compatibility (eg. ARC; background su

   It's working again: http://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html I would have thought they'd have a fallback on a different network.

   I'm not sure how to get VLC to work with the browser, but Apple's using an HTML5 video tag that embeds this url: http://qthttp.apple.com.edgesuite.net/129opiygabsdvibsdfobsd... . If you open that in VLC, it plays fine. Here's the relevant

   I like it. I think it gives a nice sense of layering of content and accentuates the photos.

   I agree. But I hate the crappy abstraction that is Web Forms. It throws so much garbage on top of the HTTP request-response cycle, and so many developers are content to remain ignorant of what's going on underneath or how the Web actually w

   SO is built with MVC, which encourages good development practices. T-Mobile looks to be using Web Forms. I'm sure there are good sites out there that use Web Forms, although as a .NET developer, I've found a that Web Forms encourages practi

    I don't like the part about using people's names. I personally don't like it when someone I don't know uses my name unnecessarily. It strikes me as odd and makes me think they're trying some psych 101 tactic on me. It's completely counterpr

    Just a thought on the presentation itself -- they seem to be relying on a teleprompter too much. Either that, or the prompter is located in a really bad spot.

    Does anyone see the source of information? I assume this article is not original reporting. I followed the link to Mercedes' site, and I didn't find "siri" or "apple" anywhere on the page. I can't watch the video right now, though.

    Could he have visited any Nigeria-related sites or performed any Nigeria-related searches? He'd have to have a sterile browsing environment to ensure his ads weren't related to something else on Google's ad network.
