Yeah, I just think examples like this need to work for the masses in order to be useful otherwise they're just pie in the sky advice like abstinence to prevent childbirth. It does work and it's 100% effective but humans are horny.

I make a decent salary as a programmer (150k) but my house only cost 250k and my mortgage is about 1400. How I see it, if I have to flip burgers to keep my house, I can pull it off. I can't imagine have a mortgage that's 10gs a mo

Yeah, I'm sure it can. The app I was talking about was an app that handled appointments for my mom's business. 80% of her customers used the mobile website but a few liked the app for notifications and just liked apps but I eventu

Google's app process requires active developers and just makes it plain impossible to make an app and have it work with minimal updates. You're not allowed to "feature complete" an app and just exist. Every few months th
