Sony is a big company and Sony Ericsson is only 50% Sony. Why the Xperia phone is "PlayStation certified" and not the "PSP phone".

Violation of government accessibility requirements. Oh and it's horribly compressed (150k+ IIRC), text stored on a JPEG (PNG is so much better for graphics), not hosted on a CDN, lacks etags so there is no caching, and the background image

I've never been a fan of ICE's technique of seizing domains. I don't think they should have the authority to do that. And then updating them and redirecting to their page that the domain was seized and potentially tracking the IPs of those

This came up when the first story like this was posted. Unconfirmed churn. Mono isn't dead. Only a smart of the team was let go in the restructuring.

Mono contributor (circa 2005-2006) here. They didn't axe the entire team. Still going strong. Mono had a number of people working on different sides and only part of the team was let go as part of Attachmate restructuring of the SuSE group.

Neat. ...but it's still violating the iOS developer agreement. Specifically the no interpreter rule except those provided by Apple. They probably didn't notice but blogging about it may get the apps pulled. Take it from someone that has bee

A good majority of my interfaces are based on UITableViews of some form. Used them for forms, navigation, etc. IB doesn't help me model up some of the fairly static data sources I return. I end up getting 90% of my apps done without touchin

For main views, I feel the same way. For some subviews, I don't. I hate having my MainWindow as a xib (like the default project does which is why I created my own default project). For those simple views, I'll use IB. For my UITableViews (a

Only have to do this because the accessory kit in iOS is so locked down and Apple wraps that mess up in their "Works for iPhone" program. The dock connector has full serial bus for accessories with power. It's easy to program and build acce

Moderation takes care of it (everyone is a moderator in a way similar to Reddit). Enough irrelevant clicks and it's gone. The relevancy algorithm also solves it partly when you upvote and downvote enough things and the system build can buil

Yeah. Six weeks is barely enough time to pick up on on all the architectural and subtle design decisions in the code base. You still probably won't be really comfortable making big changes for at least another 6 weeks after that with any si

This is so true. Most of the best practices I've picked up were working on existing established code bases at Match.com and TI. I work mostly with startups where you have a lot of freedom but the experience I picked up at those big companie

I may have to reverse the changes here and figure out how to apply it to the transmission torrent client. I'm on horrible hotel wifi or find myself a late seeder next to massive seed boxes on whatever tracker I'm on. This would give a good

The actual number lines actually hovered around that until we sold. It was fork soup because we hardcoded everything for each event (I love git so much for making that so easy). For every event, we always seen it as just one more event for
