Yeah, the cool devs in the top 10 list. iOS developers are all getting rich on that $4k average app revenue. Wow.
Sheesh. I'm surprised the original poster didn't point out that Microsoft was found to have abused monopoly power with Internet Explorer in the 90's in Europe in the summary.
So-called "universal apps" aren't really "universal". Instead, they bring dumbed-down HTML+JavaScript crapps to desktops and Xbones. Real programs won't be usable as a "universal app".
Says one more maven who hasn't read the documentation yet...
Every PC running Windows, OS X, or GNU/Linux includes a rudimentary devkit comparable to the BASIC interpreter on early 1980s home microcomputers. It's called the JavaScript interpreter.
Every cell phone and tablet these days, as well.
Wow. You dummies really need to take a second and read the bill of rights. All that freedom of speech guarantees is there won't be any laws passed infringing it. There's no guarantee of an audience for anything anyone has to say. There's no guarantee that there will be no consequences for speaking your mind. You won't be arrested for it, though, that's guaranteed.
If I owned a valuable media company I sure as hell wouldn't want it associated with snuff films. You can distribute your shit some other way, thank you very much.
On your TV via HDMI? Fat chance.
I don't think it'll really catch on until you have access the entire iOS API.
The absurdity of this argument is that even if it were true, is having a mentally ill child worse than death?

I used to work for a bank that would entice the lowly field techs with offers of exempt positions and once they had them, they'd work them to the bone. It was purely a scam to get more work out of already productive employees.
But when you have a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
It can't run Crysis, so it's not a gaming machine
The path you are advocating is fully of unintended consequences that you won't be immune from despite your obvious arrogance.
Yeah, it's sure to have a chilling effect on all those perfectly legal threats.
Where I work, you can smoke, but you have to pay more for your health insurance. I think it's $15 a month extra for smokers. If you're not a smoker you have to sign an affidavit to that effect. I think there's a penalty of some sort if it turns out you're lying.
The Tao is like a glob pattern: used but never used up. It is like the extern void: filled with infinite possibilities.
