   ISP's believe that internet services should have to pay to reach their consumers. This is the first step.

   Considering that the "ruling class" are running companies that are operating in an increasingly global economy, how can they not be concerned about (global) competitiveness?

   I empathize with that prospect, but unless you have deep pockets, won't you be quickly vaporized into dust through legal fees? This is especially problematic given the seasonal nature of income tax.

    I don't know how they plan to monetize, but plenty of companies do it, such as Mint. When you have all that tax data, I bet you have plenty of opportunity to sell stuff.

    My son, who is 9, has been asking me to teach him how to mod Minecraft. He is obsessed with the game, which makes it a great incentive to learn to code. I am setting up a dev environment this week to do simple Forge mods.

    What about a specialized device that operates off of low energy bluetooth for communicating to the iphone? Something like this could be built with Arduino or Raspberry Pi. John Muir, the American environmentalist of the 1800-1900's, b

    Agreed. Some very popular malls in socal are of the open-air variety. I was replying to the parent, who mentioned "city center".

    I live in Southern California suburbia. The nearest true city center is an hour metro train ride away, while the nearest mall is a ten minute drive. For me (and millions of others here) the malls are more convenient.

    It really depends on your user/customer. If you have a app that targets a specific customer profile, then the larger market share is not as relevant. You need to try to identify your customer, in specific terms, and learn what kind o

    With the current state of mobile app permissioning, I wouldn't be surprised if analytics companies are mining text message history for signals. This should be easy for you to test though.

    I think he is referring to Apple and Google. Eric Schmidt sat on Apple's board at the time the iPhone was in development. There was an impression (with Apple) that the two companies were friendly, and that Google would not compete ag

    Perhaps you misunderstood my comment. Many uninsured in the US go to the hospital ER for minor care, such as for colds and other temporarily ailments. I suspect that these sort of cases far outnumber the visits involving serious care case

    I question the validity of your statement. In the US, for many uninsured, the hospital ER is their primary care outlet.

    I see no problem with this setup if the homeowners association own the network, and can bid out managing the service to private ISP's. That's the ideal setup, IMO. Consider the data pipes a utility, but let free market forces dr

    Non-replaceable battery is probably a primary why this may not be the case. My iPad 3 seems to be discharging much more quickly these days, and will probably mean a replacement will be needed sometime next year.
