A break only terminates the innermost loop. Gotos are a perfectly fine way to exit a deeply nested set of loops, or jump to error-handling code. The test for using a goto mostly boils down to this: did it make the code clearer and more readable by using a goto? If not, don't use one.
A goto is just a jmp. There is no reason to be scared of it, just treat it with the proper respect and don't over-use it. Same can be said of inheritance, after all.
There's been more money to be made with Objective-C than most other languages these last few years.
Really? I thought most developers weren't making any money on any of the mobile platforms. Here's an article that states that 60% of iOS developers don't break even:

NVIDIA didn't seem to think so when it launched the Shield.
And look where that landed them; a product no one buys.
I *do* think a Steam handheld device could work, but I am very very leery of the touchpads. I understand that the touchpads are there so that we can play games that need a mouse, but I suspect that the touchpads will be inferior when compared to either a mouse or a twinstick controller. Thumbsticks are damn near perfect for many things.
Never waste your time on a language with only one deployment target platform if you can help it.
*Older* Canadians understand inches...my 4 kids all have no clue about them, they prefer centimetres.

How does not answering that right now make you feel?
The theatre asks you not to do it. It is annoying. Please, for the love of gawd, stop being a douche bag; just turn off the phone and leave it in your pocket. That "dim" light is distracting.
He just said it currently works best that way; given that Windows has been the defacto gaming OS since forever, this should not be a surprise. Change takes time.
I have to disagree; I play a large number of my PC Steam games with a controller, and that includes most of the FPS games. I was in a party of 3 playing co-op Borderlands 2 the other day, and asked if anyone was using mouse+kb...nope, we were all using controllers. Mouse+kb is usually more "accurate", but controllers are almost always more "fun", in my experience. In the last couple of years the number of PC titles with excellent controller support has grown by huge leaps and bounds; with new games I don't have to use xpadder or some such, just plug-n-play.
I laughed, but in that way that also makes you throw up a little bit.

I'll take "Oddities of English Cooking" for 500, Alex.
The Judean People's Front crack suicide squad would like a word with you.
It's hardly significant as long as we only have to pay for one patent. All those patents add up, though, which is the point of the article.
So he was off by a factor of 20. Are you implying that a royalty of 5 cents per cable is still not HUGE money if you add it up over a year?
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
