Can we just drop the "mobile" and talk about dynamic layouts instead.
What you're talking about is called a responsive layout, and it's the current best practice for mobile support. It involves using CSS media queries to adjust the page layout based on the size of the display.
(And the Google algorithm does detect responsive layouts and consider them mobile friendly.)
Or why when setting up an email account does the mail app send the domain name you enter to apple?
I don't know for sure, but when you set up an email account, based on the address you supply, the Mac does try to auto configure stuff for a wide range of popular email services. I'm guessing it's probably sending off the address to search for that auto configuration information.
If you have 100 hours available for testing, you can use static analysis to find 90% of the bugs and spend the rest of your time on the 10% that require deeper insight. Or you can waste 90% of your time being a human compiler, manually cross-checking symbols. Which is going to result in more reliable software?
That assumes that:
1) Static analysis will find enough problems to save 90% of your testing time
2) There is no additional cost in development time in manually handling all type conversions
And there are a lot of reasons to believe that neither of those are true.
Or, to summarise, you are not helping the police catch a criminal. You are helping the police convict you of a crime. Whether or not you actually committed the crime is irrelevant.
The Left has become fascist in the name of tolerance. Tolerance will be imposed and all who stand in the way will put against the wall.
Yeah, I mean on the one hand we have people who wish to use the power of the state to deny the recognition of relationships of a minority group because it doesn't fit with their own view of the world, and on the other we have people refusing to use a company's product because they disagree with the politics of the CEO.
Why do the worst technologies that are just barely able to solve the problem always make it? Is the developer community collectively really this stupid? I fear it is...
Because the people who spend their time worrying about which is the theoretically superior solution rarely come up with a practically useful solution.
You're right! We should all stop buying Apple products because of their tax evasion. Anything else would be blatant fanboy-ism, probably caused by some sort of reality distortion field.
Now I just have to decide which of the many technology companies who gladly pay their fair share of taxes to choose from...
If you seriously couldn't work out how to produce the equivalent of a Wordpress site using Drupal in six months then - and I hate to be the one to break this to you - I don't think Drupal was the problem.
I don't see how you can have a sense of acceleration. Perhaps change of acceleration....but acceleration? Categorically NO.
We orbit the sun, but i wager you have no sense of angular acceleration about the sun. The other senses are persistent.
And, by the same logic, we cannot possibly see cars as we cannot see paramecium.
Now Windows has ~90% of the market place and Apple has ~6%. If you were Adobe and getting to 64 bit on Apple required a lot more work in return access to far less of the market place, wouldn't you be tempted to tell people to use Bootcamp if they want to use the 64 bit version? Now I know Adobe will do the work at least this time, but don't you think decisions like this may cause other vendors to reconsider keeping their Mac ports going?
Those are the numbers for the general computer suing install base. If you're considering the numbers for paying photoshop users, all of a sudden, that Aplle numbert gets much, much higher. Are you sure it's not worth it?

... and if you told me you're using your phone to access the site, I'd get a puzzled look and say "but why?".
Because the mobile device was the nearest available thing capable of browsing the web at the time I wanted to look at the content.
The number of cases where there is a legitimate reason to not support mobile is very small.

This does enable precisely the parametric queries you're talking about.
No, it's more like they were enforcing parametrised queries on top of an API that allows non-parametrised queries.
Considering that the API is to help protect against SQL injection though, it's probably fair to say that version 6 is affected by other issues.
Not really. The API makes it easier for developers to avoid SQL injection vulns. That doesn't mean that code not using it has SQL vulns.
I've seen no mention of whether or not Drupal 6.x is vulnerable; are they?
No, it won't be affected, as the API involved was introduced in Drupal 7.
Well, I've done both of those, and the webpage option is far, far easier.
But people always want you to build an app, because apps are cool and websites are old hat.

Yes, as was posted just above: Don't talk to police
Or, to summarise, you are not helping the police catch a criminal. You are helping the police convict you of a crime. Whether or not you actually committed the crime is irrelevant.
I thought it was a simple key-value data store.
Not really. The term NoSQL is used to describe a whole bunch of very different models for storing data, each of which has its own pros and cons.

OKCupid are clearly the fascists here...
I am sure the three other people who use Netbeans feel the same way...
I'm sure they do, too, given how much better it is than Eclipse...
So, from that I see that you might not need JQuery if everyone is using an up-to-date version of IE (or something that's not IE). Good luck with that.

Flex was Java on the server side, so apparently just not using PHP didn't save the OP.
But it's 2013 now and in my opinion the language should have long been fixed.
You should probably read this, then
No, MySQL has always required copyright assignment for stuff to be included.

It's true. These socialised health care systems have a horrible tendency to not fund vital drugs like this, just because the clinical evidence shows they don't work.
