I agree. As much as I hate learning a platform-exclusive language I do have to say Swift a pleasure to work with.

I grew up in rural Kentucky. People were polite to me but there was always this strange distance I would encounter when interacting with people, a distance that my friends never seemed to receive. I always chalked it up to my personality. I

My mother was a nurse for 20 years. She was extremely good at her job and worked in the ICU unit of Vanderbilt Hospital. One day she had a severe headache at home and once it subsided she sent me an email detailing five possible causes. Eve

VR is a medium where I could see voice commands and visual programming actually having an impact. I would love to see a 3D version of UE4 Blueprints or Scratch.

We would love to have you in the USA. The other countries you listed are fantastic places to live but if your passion is in programming then the USA is an excellent place to be. There are plenty of immigrant success stories here. Look at re

We would love to have you and your family. The USA is so large and diverse that practically any living scenario is possible. If you want to live near nature with sunshine, fresh affordable food, and a home with a garden then I would suggest

This can go many ways. I would say on average a startup is unhealthy for someone with kids but if you're a highly organized and motivated person it isn't that difficult.

Yeah, our tax/employment/visa system sucks, although European rumors of our impending demise are greatly exaggerated. If you're not from the USA it is understandable that you may not be aware of the nightmare that is our stat

It's pretty sad when you're not allowed to sell your product to your customer. If car dealerships provide such a valuable service then they should survive on their own merits and not have to exist parasitically through legislation

Lol, all of these items brought back memories. I used to be a master at the 1x1 shim.gif. You should also include the crazy table layouts we had. Before the days of div tags we had to use multiple nested tables with 1x1 gif spacing within t

Did I understand this correctly, will this actually map onto virtual Earth geometry at the same position and scale as real-life? That would be amazing, you would literally be able to use Google Maps to walk inside buildings and look around

Can this be used in robotics? I know the air-compression muscles provide some of the best performance for grip and human-like motion but they require noisy heavy equipment and can be costly. Although this solution looks more primitive it ma

8k may not be high enough for true "reality like" vision in an HMD. A good article on the matter can be found at http://bit.ly/1bCyIcj . What's cool is that mobile manufacturers have already committed to crea

I had a different perspective on the book. To me the dystopian future had less to do with VR and more to do with oligarchy, the energy crisis, and our lack of planning for the future. In the book VR became the main character's only way

That's true. This is also a good opportunity for those of us that remember the early days of the Internet. If you believe, as I do, that VR will have a significant impact then today is the equivalent of the pre-Mosaic days of the Inter

I like Node because it let's me focus on a single language for my web apps. I can even use many node libraries on the client-side. Also, NPM is an excellent package manager and makes code-reuse and API integration so much easier than o
