Reminds me of this:

Vancouver is more expensive than Seattle.

Would your bring your wife and kids into this environment? Or even just a date?

You have to be part of a very very narrow demographic to be compatible with this type of work environment.

Nice sweatshop.

Is this the latest, legal, technique to discriminate against older workers?

Does Google-Madison stack-rank like the rest of Google?

Any opinion on Moai vs CoronaSDK? I know people who use Corona, but not Moai.

Isn't it better for their economy if the things they make is just a /little/ better than the stuff made in China? (Think "planned obsolescence".)

  If you need IM, use Jabber protocol.

You can't push your modifications to a submodule you don't own.

Also, you can only remove a submodule manually. There's no option to have git do it for you.

Do you have a non-Apple-specific suggestion? We do cross platform development, so Cocoapods aren't an option.

  Otherwise you can just use git submodules.

I wish I had something to suggest as a replacement. We're still trying to figure that one out ourselves. We just know we won't use submodules again. For now, we're manually managing disjoint repositories.

Instead of:

  ls -al | sort -nk5

  ls -larS

Another problem, post-university, is keeping a clean Facebook profile when all your new connections are professionals.

G+ solve this with circles, but I don't know anyone on G+, and it's too easy to make privacy mistakes on Facebook.

My Facebook profile is turning into my new Linkedin as I'm getting older.

Interesting question. Another one is, why the graph differs so much with the iOS one:

I think it's the number of days it takes Apple to review your app before it can be sold in the Appstore.

Yeah, this is ripe for abuse by pornographers. :(

The most fitting way to describe these entrepreneurs would be modern day ronins.

Small variant:

void main() { while (1) printf("%c", "/\\"[rand()%2] ); }

Good catch. You're correct. I wish I could delete my original comment.

  template<typename T>
  Array<T>::Array(int size)
  :  _size(size), 
     _data(new T(size)) // should have been new T[size]
  {}

  private:
     T* _data;
     int _size;
  };

_data depends on _size being initialized first. Therefore _size must be declared above _data.

Note: I understand the next example goes over this issue. I just think this example should've been declared properly as to avoid distracting the reader from the main problem, "() vs []".

Apologizing, in general, makes you look weak.

  The team had elite and, for tech, senior talent from
  Twitter, Google, Facebook, Craigslist, Quora, and some
  of Chicago's own software companies such as Orbitz and
  Threadless

What do you think of disabling IAPs if IAPCracker or IAPFree is detected?

That's why windshield mounts are illegal in some states, like California.

Indeed.

Ditto for certain groups at Google (cough android cough).

Either have a dedicated research group, or give people a pass at being 20% less productive at their regular job.

Here's a novel idea.. increase your workforce by 20%? I know, that's just crazy talk. :)

About a hundred years ago you could've asked the same questions of the car industry.

I'm not a fan of RIM, but the iPhone might just be today's Ford Model T.

Also normal behavior in Hawaii.

  Never attribute to malice that which
  is adequately explained by stupidity.

You weren't kidding:

Brutal.

I'd love to be able to vote thru the internet, with a state-issued certificate to authenticate me. It'll be a while before society's tech savvy enough for this tho so I won't hold my breath.
