Fine by me, that way I only gotta port it to one platform. Should also make support easier. So if you want my app, get Android. If you don't have one, sucks to be you.
iOS users are 32% more likely to make a purchase, and spend 10% more than Android users. Developers using the in-app purchasing and freemium models will also want to take note of the in-app purchasing numbers, with iOS users spending 45% more the Android users on in-app purchases.
Google’s mobile platform typically generates more engagement per app. Although session times remain consistent between Android and iOS, Android users will start more app sessions per month (on average by 17%).
So to be cynical you need to consider how much money you can squeeze out of each user for each platform and use that to decide whether supporting the platform is a worthwhile ROI. However I also saw a stat that said there are more than 2x number of android users - so you need to factor that in as well.
Submission is as thin as saran wrap on a toilet seat, and just as desirable.
I clicked on the link (without looking at the source) expecting to find stories of all sorts of apps that were rejected for unexpected reasons. The tease was GPS to automatically control a real-world aircraft or automobile. The trouble was.. that was also the only paragraph in the story that mentioned something like that (well ok it also mentioned emergency services) and all that was buried at the end of the article. The rest of the content was a top list from Apple explaining where people go wrong.
Not news and known to anyone who develops iOS apps, and even if you don't develop iOS apps.. the top reasons are still obvious.
At least the notebook's logs weren't written in a cryptic binary format like systemd's logs. Because they're in plain text, we can still easily understand them over a century later.
While I laughed at the joke, this is actually a serious problem.
If you don't explicitly transfer electronic data from one generation of media/format to the next then it becomes so much harder to recover it with each technical generation that you skip. Which means that in the future when people digital media hidden away in some shoebox that belonged to their great-grandpa, they are more likely to throw it away than to try and figure out what it is.
As a "maker" who sells small runs of boards . . I trust that they will build the board to spec . . I don't know what the right answer is
If you are getting boards built but not checking that they are to spec, then I'd suggest that you are not doing any quality control. Doing that would be the very first step in the process. And you don't have to test every board, just a random sample.
And FTDI has now done the heavy lifting for you by writing software that will test if their chips are genuine.
The Robot Combat League was fairly interesting given the limitations of the machinery that they are using.
The technology of Robot Smack Downs would have to surpass that of the Robot Combat League by a pretty large margin before it became half decent, and I don't see that happening any time soon.
The private prisons have been in collusion with the government over this one:
1. Get lots of ant-drug laws passed 2. Increase number of prisoners 3. Build private jails (Profit #1) 4. Reduce drug laws to free up space 5. Admit to being a police state 6. Round up undesirables 7. Put them in FEMA camps 6. Ask for more money in this current emergency (Profit #2)
I've been thinking about giving the OSX another try... I've been messing around with it at work.
The mini wouldn't be a bad way to go... it's not that expensive and I can still use my 27" monitor.
Aside from the Mac Pro, the Mini was the only Mac that you could easily change the hard drive and memory yourself. I just had a quick look at the specs of the new mini and I can't tell if you can still do that.
I'm worried that the mini may go the way of the iMacs and head into being a totally sealed/pre-configured device and have no user changeable parts.

Yeah but that wasn't a dicevertisment!

Not knocking your choices, but see your deliberate abstaining from iOS made me want to know which platform is better for monetization of apps. That led me to this article: For Mobile Monetization, Choose Android for Ads and Apple For In-App Purchases and the stats of:
iOS users are 32% more likely to make a purchase, and spend 10% more than Android users. Developers using the in-app purchasing and freemium models will also want to take note of the in-app purchasing numbers, with iOS users spending 45% more the Android users on in-app purchases.

find .. when people find digital media

Yes, you can find off the shelf computers which will do this and which have real GPUs.

That's not going to help him. Apparently where he is at, the google is broken.
The data came from
I'd still use past tense given that the experiment was 32 years ago
I am not too sure what you are complaining about, "data" is plural by strict definition, if not common usage.
I'm complaining about the tense of the origins of the data, and how that doesn't match the data itself
I suppose that I've been around here long enough to not expect any better.

So the better question is how can we improve the system to ensure that counterfeit chips aren't being secretly swapped into our products.
That's easy .. quality control on your part to verify that the chips in your product are genuine.
Remember the old saying:
Trust in God, but tie your camel
Especially if it can be used to shield Bennett's posts from my eyes
Hell .. I'm getting tempted to pay for such a service if Bennet would move his blog there
Ask.com still exists?
I'm sure there is a web site where you can Ask questions like that.
That seemed to come out in favour of the satirist.
IMHO only because of the lawyer backing him up.
Based on this
I am mildly concerned about potential reaction of the parodee, who has been known to be a little heavy handed when it comes to things like that.
I recommend a good lawyer.
See Beck v. Eiland-Hall as to why.

FEMA Camps!

That wasn't missing in the summary as submitted, but editors will edit.
[Checks url to make sure I'm on the same site as you]
Well that would be a first. Editing that is. Fucking things up is par for the course.
Disclaimer: Not saying this LinkedIn page is him, but it could be.
Which puts you on the same level as all those trashy journalists and shady talkshow hosts:
Here are the "facts". We don't know if they are true. But you be the judge of that
I don't get grumpy very often, but the annual marathon makes me grumpy.
Given that's its annual, and thus extremely predictable when it runs, couldn't you have done something like .. um .. leave for the weekend?
Kurt Cobain saw what was being proposed and . . . . (well you know the rest)
(Too soon?)
As opposed to the bittorrent user(s) who are pushing everyone else out of the way and preventing their access?
Its one thing to do so with permission from the network owners .. its another thing to wade in and beat up on people just so you can get what you want.
Two wrongs do not make a right.
That should have been "Self proclaimed vigilante"
Vigilante beats up on people in order to get public wifi access that he believes is rightfully his
That's what it amounts to. He can't get the access he wants, so he just pushes his way in and takes it.
If access is so important to your work, why aren't you/they paying for it?
