Of course a competent Perl developer could have, after all that is his domain, but he'd still needs to come up with scalable hosting somewhere and why exactly would he want to do that in the first place?. As someone who's primary field isn'

Painting everything a little bit dark, aren't we? Look here's a story: We just had our national holiday in Germany and therefore a long weekend. So I decided to code an update for an iPhone app I have. The app lets the user create funny pic

This is what I like to do on daringfireball posts: http://i.minus.com/iXy1JUUd4GGMz.jpg - and that's pretty much my opinion about them.

Holy shit, they're are hammering down on Eric Schmidt accusing Google of tampering with search results and what not for pretty dumb reasons imho. Seems really unfair to me.

Okay here's my prediction from last year, maybe this time I'll be right: Translucent Home-Button (maybe out of glass). Contains multiple color LEDs for notification system. If you get an email your Home-Button 'pulses' green and so on.

I was think about getting one of these yellow tinted glasses instead of a screen filter (f.lux isn't enough for me). Anyone has experience with them? (i.e. something like this: http://www.amazon.com/GUNNAR-Gaming-Eyewear-Mercury-Frame/dp..

Yeah I think its doomed, too. I mean just look at it. Everybody and their dog is on Facebook, with status updates and comments quickly approaching the niveau of Youtube comments. Meanwhile marketing firms are vigorously trying to get as muc

Well yeah that's the whole point of vertical integration. To create one or just a few very polished "sought after" devices. In horizontal integration you have many phones, some might be sought after more than others, but the user-base is di

While you can certainly throw some money behind a favorable legislation, I don't think it's as easy as making out a check to Washington DC and have your words be law. Politics are still a complicated, slow and cumbersome process.

Well you're new to Android so things seem weird at first. It's all a matter of picking up the underlying concepts. To be fair ObjC and Cocoa looks for most Java devs like voodoo, but once you get it it becomes easier, too.

The difference between Pidgin and Android is, Google provides the whole stack from the OS to the Mail App and also dictates hardware requirements. Clearly the can come up with a better way to store the, for many people, most important passw

Damn I planned to update to Lion soon, but not so soon. Seems like we'll be spending tomorrow updating, after figuring out how to get Lion on everybodys iTunes account. Give us some time apple!

Hm I heard they are already working on a similar feature, so it shouldn't be too long for groups to appear on G+. Don't really think it was necessary to have them at launch though - their task right now is to built a decent user base. After

Very good article. The candidate response in that interview is indeed brilliant, but in my experience it's very hard to come up with something like this on-the-fly, without sounding like you're just rephrasing the other guy. Maybe that's wh

I think this is only a problem for people not familiar with Android. Once you get used to it, it's pretty straightforward and intuitive. Fact is, the back button always takes you back to the previous screen you where on, and it works system

That pretty much sums it up. I've set a global hotkey on ⌘+P to show iTerm on fullscreen (with all my tabs and custom configurations) and I love it =). Much kudos to the developers!

Didn't they just map SSIDs to locations for their geo database? I don't think they have a case there. Actually it's pretty stupid not to do that, when you're company invests in the task of driving through every single street in the whole co

They also do a whole lot of marketing. Some month ago there was a campaign all around the city advertising Chrome on billboards and in the subway. Software ads are kinda rare here, I think the last time I've seen some was at the launch of W

Month of uptime? Every time you delete/install an App you have to reboot the device, which is painfully slow and takes almost 5 minutes. When I'm developing for BlackBerry, my workflow is basically: 1. Change some lines of codes 2. Deploy t

No. If you're a little rusty on this whole Facebook API thing, don't talk about it in bold words. This is how every Facebook application works, there's nothing special about distributing the API keys. That's what Facebook tells you to do. Y
