Most of the time, it’s a mixture of Google Search and memory, to be honest. I wish there was a better way.

So when your company and services gets mocked and is misunderstood by most everyone, particularly the mainstream press and media, just smile and keep doing what you are doing. You are on to something big.

One word: LAG.There must be some sociological reason that games are much more popular with iOS users. Do they have more spare time? More prone to the groupthink and doing what everyone else is doing? More affluent? Bored?

Quote reblogged from Le Mix by NicoThe great thing about the web is linking. I don’t care how ugly it looks and how pretty your app is, if I can’t link in and out of your world, it’s not even close to a replacement for the web. It would be as silly as saying that you don’t need oceans because you have a bathtub. How nice your bathtub is. Try building a continent around it if you want to get my point.

This Sunday comic by Bill Amend illustrates perfectly the inanity of using “and/or.”
Or as the old illustration goes, so the police radio crackles that the suspect may be armed with a shotgun or a machine gun, and the order is to shoot to kill if seen. So if he comes out brandishing both, you’re holding fire?
(BTW, no knock on Amend here; that was perfect for the joke. The entire strip is used here only for educational purposes - the context of and/or would not be clear without it. Visit his site - buy his stuff. Really. Support comic strip artists. They make the day worthwhile.)

Objectivity is a means to an end - that end being truthful reporting. And if truthful reporting leads to an obvious conclusion, a reporter and publication cheat their readers if they pull back and don’t follow their reporting to that conclusion, and fail to advocate for their community reading it - and acting on it.

To be a competent computer programmer, even for relatively simple web-based programs, you have to be able to break down a complex problem into small, manageable pieces. That’s a career skill, a life skill, and it’s something that programming forces you to do if you want to get any good at it.
