Since you apparently still use just mail, text editor and git from command line for work, did we get graphical user interfaces completely wrong? Is there something fundamentally broken in GUI systems(or their design(ers))?
There's another variable. Transportation cost. All we need to do is wait for the oil prices to go up and local 3d printing starts to make sense over mass manufacturing in third world countries.
He is the top dog to decide what goes in. He has people below him doing the same thing. It's a nifty hierarchial system, obviously the devs in lower branches are fucking things up by allowing stuff thru that shouldn't go thru, it gets all the way upto Linus and he doesn't like it.
Why haven't you made the pirate party as a real thing in USA?
If neither of your two parties support what you believe in, why don't you do something about it?
This is blatantly wrong. iPhone was the device that lacked a lot of HW capabilities compared to other manufacturers. The brilliance of iPhone was in the fact that these HW capabilities stopped mattering. Why? Because everyone could build a mobile phone with a camera, GPS, fm radio, wifi, mobile hotspot, etc... Apple focused on software. They got it right with a lot easier to use touchscreen. Their APIs were also miles ahead of the competitors offerings in the ease of use apartment. You propably don't know how PITA it was to do any kind of development on Symbian. Back then it was all symbian. Android was just coming.
All the necessary "smartphone" hardware existed before the iPhone. However they became a commodity for every phone manufacturer. Apple came to the market with the best software platform. Before the iPhone the focus was on hardware. When was the last time you saw NEW hardware in a phone that ain't just a spec update?
I'm sleeping pretty safely in finland with all my freedoms without our army blowing stuff up in the middle-east. No country in the world would attack USA directly. But they will gladly terrorize your citizens with bombs after you have been blowing up weddings in their own countries. Payback and all that shit.
There's more status updates on kim kardashian on fb and twitter. Why would majority move to use g+ when it has long and boring texts there. Who reads more than 160 characters these days for anything?!
You're right on the $100. But the Ad hoc distribution(install on 100 devices) you are talking about and testing on a device requires you to be in the program. Check yourself if you want to.
On another note. It's been awhile since i last worked with iOS, there's something called "Custom B2B App Distribution" item on the iOS dev program listing. Anyone have any clue what it means? Didn't exist when I did iOS work.
Yes, that is the current situation. But how long until the closed approach of iOS starts to backfire? Current market share gains of Android seems to suggest that it's the platform to target due to it's huge potential. Right now ROI is better on iOS development, but i doubt it stays on top for long. But seeing that both iOS and Android will stay on the market for many years, choosing both as an active platform for your app might be the best bet anyway.
On Windows/Mac OS X/Linux front I wouldn't do the same. As you can see I only mentioned Android and iOS. Those two seem to be quite even in their marketshare. I didn't include Symbian or any other mobile OS like Blackberry, series 40, bada etc. I chose iOS and Android for the simple reason that they have the easiest SDK to use and good application markets. If I were to choose the platform with only the "biggest market" on my mind I'd have to include s40 (so called "feature phones") as an option. But it has way too many problems and the platforms future doesn't look so good, even tho it still has a massive amount of users.
Another matter of consideration is the application(s) you actually develop. If you plan to do millions of different kind of useless "place a hat on your friends" apps, choosing one platform is propably the best option. However if it's a bit bigger and more useful software which might get competing applications, you really want to fight them. Adding another platform for your application gives you an advantage over your competition. You can call it a feature and market it as such. "Works even on your Android phone/iPhone!"

Wtf is a "git account"?
This world sounds boring.
Yes, so what?
Uninstall steam then. You have that option.
Yes.

Your choice comes in the form of picking the language that suits your needs.
I haven't laughed this bad for awhile.

The thing is, those belong to the next kernel version at RC state. Not as RC fixes. People are screwing up by not following the proper process.
Think of any new smartphone, but without all the plastics around it and that huge screen.

Time to play some DayZ to get practise then!

But you can't run your apps on a device to test them without paying 200$ for the iOS dev program.
Pardon me everybody. I just noticed I have used "it's" instead of "its" in my posts.
Interesting. Finland has mainly Nokia equipment in use for it's VIRVE.
Europe has a seemingly good standard called TETRA. Finland uses it in it's own VIRVE network. Why are you wasting money to implement a new standard?
I did not look at your link, but are you sure you don't mean Nokia Siemens Networks instead of Nokia? They are not the same thing.
Yes, that is the current situation. But how long until the closed approach of iOS starts to backfire?
