They make that as a commission for separating end users from their money, and Apple has made that a really seamless process. But while developer support certainly is correlated with that income, it's not tied to it closely enough to ma

Since day one of the app store, there has been a persistent stream of complaints of terrible customer service to developers. Apps being rejected for reasons nobody can figure out, app reviews taking an egregiously long time, account lockou

As yet another nerd married to a doc in a rural area (Hines, OR, 90 min south of GP's John Day, and similarly remote), I'll also point out that rural docs have a broader scope of practice - to some extend they make more money beca

I always views TCL as closer to Lisp and Forth - almost no syntax, the tools to build new control structures, a simple underlying data model.

My C182 had a 24v cigarette lighter plug that was there when the plane came to me and I think was from the factory. Took a while to find a 24V USB charging dongle, but when I did it powered my iPad just fine.

I’m not sure that’s true. My credit card statements usually show the route (and maybe the date; I don’t recall) for airfare purchases. The format the statements use has led me to believe it’s more than the airline stuffing that data in the

Once upon a time I had a 486 laptop with such a display. I kept it long beyond its prime because it was so superior to any other laptop display on the market. Amusingly, the laptop featured a socketed 25 MHz 486 SX. I was able to swap it

I don't know if that's actually traditionally true of fixed-width fonts. Courier, for example, is pretty bad, and widely used by people who aren't using a fixed-width font because they're programming.
