Cashing out is not thesame as not caring. Didn't Steve Job cash out when Apple fired him, but when he returned, he still cared enough to do awesome things. Why would you want the CEO of a public or big company to be worrying about his perso

I really think people should leave ruswick to himself. He seems to live a life of not seeing anything good in others work. So people should not bother responding to him. Read his blog and you would see some negativity about app.net, branch

I think this comment by Brandon Burns made on Fred's blog puts things in their proper context. I feel like a point is still being missed: mobile is a channel, not a product strategy. Instagram worked mobile first because you use it to take

I think your whole arguments seems driven by your desire to show quora is potentially great company. Do you work there or own shares there. Quora is just an expertexchange clone, deal with it.

@atomical, the link to trek's article above puts it more succintly: Ember applications start out with a complexity rating of 4/10 but never get much higher than 6/10, regardless of how sophisticated your application becomes. Backbone starts
