OK, let's see those "dwindling features" of the last couple years you have: Workers for Android, Support Android x86, Support for iOS x64, Workers for iOS, Support iOS 9, Mac OS X 64bit and soon (in beta): Windows 64bit, Supp

As a user/consumer I consider the search or discovery of new apps on the MAS quite horrible, the features you mention are nice but IMHO they come "after you found the app". IMHO an app dev is better off implementing the payme

both works: asking questions or not asking questions. it mainly depends on the person some ppl will learn by doing, they just want to go out there, break stuff, break it, break it, break it again and then they understand it other ppl will w

When a good friend of mine started to ask about learning programming I answered that “be ready to do it every day, be ready to learn for the next 10 years” asked him to seriously think about that and we’ll talk again in a week there is much

It's not about being a dick and discouraging people who want to learn programming but they should know in what they are getting into: programming is hard and the learning process is a long road of many years. Teach Yourself Programming

it's been 5 years or so that I constantly hear ppl saying "flash is dead", OK maybe, maybe not. Apparently it's not dead enough, HTML5 didn't grow enough in those last 5 years to kill it, so what ppl are asking now

for an image, not seeing the file name is OK as you can differentiate images by just looking at them but for videos, sorry I need a way to differentiate them, and a thumbnail is not enough, I need a either the file name or a way to search m

Good and sound advice but imho poorly illustrated. I do believe that a programmer ignoring the CLI would not go far, it's not a MUST know it is a HAVE TO know. First it is about tooling, you will unlikely use a programming language tha

it would be as accurate as the server logs, the only difference is I don't need to analyse those logs I can keep using google analytics. that's my whole point: "yadda yadda yadda ublock or adblock or whatever block ga.js on t

The whole point of using a solution like google analytics which is free (to a certain extend) is to not have to hire a professional. There is no way a single sysadmin (how good he think he is) could write the code required for the analytics
