Well, I haven't received any micro usb adapter in the iPhone 5s package (just the standard lightning to usb cable). I think it's just a recommendation, not a law.

Here's a screenshot for a quick view: https://www.dropbox.com/s/35060r2obuwse4f/Photo%2014.11.2013... It looks better when you see it moving.

Why redesign the watches? This problem doesn't exist in the places that use the 24h format (like most of the world around North America). We can use both time formats. I can either say 9 in the evening or 21 and everybody gets it.

I'm switching a lot of branches and Eclipse used to freeze for a few minutes until it indexed the directory. That doesn't happen in phpStorm. That's only one of the many reasons to use it :-)

Does anyone really want that? Web is currently awful for mobile games: hard to interact with the content (see how scroll is handled in javascript) and low performance no matter how many tricks you do. Also, don't forget that you'l

Yes, but probably there are people in Iceland and Poland with foreign names. I know that you both wanted to explain that there is a rule in some language and it's nice to find out about that information, but as long as it doesn't

It was possible to install the betas on non developer iphones by using the upgrade button in itunes (it doesn't require activation). Also, the GM doesn't require activation.

I've been using ios 7 since beta 3 and most of the apps work just fine. I'm not saying that there were no issues, but not as many as the article states. Of course, this is limited to the list of apps I'm currently using on i

It's still pretty unstable, unfortunately and there are some weird issues: if the connection drops, you won't be able to retrieve your queries before reconnecting because of the reconnect dialog. And that's if you don't

Not really, users don't care about open source. Users care about apps and services. Most developers care about the platform with more users that are willing to spend money on apps and services. I'm not saying that there are no ope

I've used all flavors of Linux (from Gentoo, when there was no installer and I had to use dd, to Ubuntu). I still love Linux, but I don't use it anymore as my main system. I have 2 problems with it: (1) I want the computer to work

I understood that it's only for iPhone. I hope they're not sacrificing office sales, just to force you to buy RT. It's not yet available for me so I can't check that.

Why should he be humble? There can be a huge difference in the quality of the work produced by different people. Knowing your real value is nothing to be ashamed of.

I strongly disagree with this. If you think that you can bring a good value to a company, you should price yourself at a premium level. If you don't believe in yourself, why would you expect the company to do that? After you get hired, ever

I don't think that's the case for PHP, at least not in the last 5-6 years or so... All the main frameworks (Symfony, Zend, etc) will force you to use the routing. It's not even possible without some work to call php files. Yes, I'm aware PH

Well, the irony is that Mozilla said they're putting Thunderbird on hold: http://techcrunch.com/2012/07/06/so-thats-it-for-thunderbird... I don't know if they've changed their minds meanwhile.

You need to do something with the text over the color pallette. It took me a while to see that there's actually something there and not a black background http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2311018/temp/ipcol.png (I don't care that you can see my ip

I think it's because of IE. I know IE sopports transparent PNGs for quite a while, but until not very long ago there were not so many options and people don't really like to upgrade IE apparently.

I don't know if it's only a western thing. I'm in Eastern Europe and we still consider this subject a taboo (at least in IT). edit: To be more clear, you can talk about it with friends but not with your colleagues.

We're using plastic money in Romania for more than 10 years, and I honestly haven't seen a single case of your problem with chipped sides. Maybe there are different technologies available?

Have you ever used iCloud? It just takes a username and a password and you can replicate anything from an iPhone to another (minus some passwords that may not be all saved in iCloud). I don't know what's not working, I had no issue with it.

Yeah, but you have to know first that the app exists. This way, they're using the downloads to reach the top of the app sales/downloads list. Probably, most of the people that are looking for free apps, aren't going to purchase anything, so
