chriseidhof:
Sometimes I ask myself the question: why do I develop for iOS? I could also do Haskell development, do cool HTML5 stuff, or build compilers. As an indie developer, these are some important reasons for me.
High-end platform
The iPhone and iPad are the high-end of the smartphones and tablets….

Once upon a time there was a HP TouchPad app. Not just your average, run-of-the-mill kind of TouchPad app but a really, really pretty one. And besides being really pretty it had some serious brains as well. It was called ‘Scientific RPN Calculator’. I can’t even estimate anymore how many hours of…

DiogeneX: Blind Spots →
diogenex:
Apple is a fashion brand with a brain. People may eventually lose interest in Jony Ive’s sleek aluminum and glass designs. To the less discerning, any 4x5 grid of app icons will look the same — whether it’s running on iOS, Android or QNX. And at some point (simply by virtue of scale), other…

– ‘Useless’ Is A Loaded Word. Great post, again, from Justin Williams.
I’m also extremely sensitive to this word in emails or reviews. It’s the entire reason I was inspired to do my keyword analysis. And while I never got around to writing the follow-up post mentioned in the last paragraph, Justin’s...

delusions of grandeur: Update on Briefs →
It has been three months since I last threw myself upon the court of public opinion. I have waited three months for a resolution—any resolution—on the matter of Briefs’ admission into the App store and have grown weary waiting for a response. Many have asked where things stand, so I decided to…

Ideally you should know what the following acronyms stand for and be able to use any one of them to fix a leaky pipe in my bathroom: CSS, HTML5, PHP, AS (AS3, AS2), C++ (for mobile), and all sorts of APIs. You should know by experience that whatever you don’t understand you can learn quickly. You should be...

More on the iPhone 4 signal issue
penllawen:
Previously, I did some simple testing of reception strength on my iPhone 4 and concluded that I couldn’t see any problems. I’ve now done some more thorough testing, however, and have reason to think I was wrong. Warning: this is very long and nerdy.

I need to talk to you about computers. I’ve been on a veritable roller-coaster of “how I feel” about the iPad announcement, and trying not to write about it until I had at least an inkling of what was at the root of that.
Before we begin, a reminder: On this blog, I speak only for myself, not for my company or my co-workers.
The thing is, to talk about specific hardware (like the...
