Not so important for it's age, but for what it tells us about when both first and second generation stars likely formed. Which helps in determining how well current models hold up.

This would be of interest to me as well. Have just about finished recoding the game that I couldn't get in the MS store due to tester issues. Have been able to do this one with my own skills and some …

I use a Galaxy Camera with a 4G LTE MiFi from Verizon, and can tell you that a Nexus with a similar backend should work nicely for you. Advantage of the MiFi is that I don't have to do anything to tet…

These are always fun, but don't address the need that many game developers (ok, at least "I") have - the need for detailed backgrounds - preferably ones that can mesh well with each other. That can re…

My personal favorite Windows 8 feature - plug in a mouse, but not a keyboard. Go to a text field. Windows 8 figures that if you have a mouse you "must" have a keyboard even though it can plainly see y…

Not a personal rant, but for folks who have been following the saga, the final step in trying to develop for the Windows Store. Folks are wondering why the Windows Store isn't doing well, and I think …

It happens to me on Windows also, and the particular copy I was using is my sandboxed Chrome with no plugins (for sites I'm not sure of). It happened as the page was loading, I immediately got a DL re…

Ummm... not to be the wet blanket, but what business advantage is there to your blog loading 2.3x (or even 5x) faster? I understand you may occasionally be adding content that helps plug your work, bu…

I don't doubt Win 8 demand is "weak", but I understand that app store activity for paid apps more than doubled after Christmas. So I suspect that a better measure will be to see where we are in Januar…

CreateJS in many ways seems to bring Flash/ActionScript concepts to JavaScript. I used EaselJS and PreloadJS in my Win 8 project, and in a lot of ways it felt like I was back in ActionScript (except f…

Not OPs fault, but from the name I was expecting a web-based harmonica. Anything good online for doing GarageBand type things? Preferably that can be used in other projects?

This link there: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Apps/Marketplace_Pa... Makes me think that there is still some work to be done to solve the issue of attracting folks who want to make some …

At the risk of asking a "bad" question, will there be a FireFox App Store? If so, when and what will be the Mozilla cut? If not, what will be the plan to attract the "higher end" apps?

Since I didn't see this in any of the comments at the time I wrote this... While GMail/Google Voice calls are free, they are much more susceptible to noise, echo, etc due to the main codec (G.711) tha…

But are you sure those would WORK? One of the things I had to wrap my head around early is that MS JS is not the same as ALL JS. You don't want to know what you have to do for a Global variable...

As well as guerilla mail: https://www.guerrillamail.com/ Given some of the other comments in the thread below, it seems like the more of these you have, the more likely one of them will work.…

Why? It seems like you are escalating a war AGAINST your users. Most folks who use a disposable address are trying to make sure their main address doesn't become a fount of spam. If I continue to visi…

I presume the reason they haven't stopped making it is because kids would still like to see new episodes, and my daughter would enjoy that as well. Yes, we have some of the older seasons, but Mom and …

Now, if they would come up with an app that would allow my handicapped daughter to watch their current episodes on her Android tablet. Even if I could get them from iTunes, it would be previous season…

Given that we know that at least in the US (and probably in the other countries you have mentioned as well) that the government has a special tap into AT&T, Verizon and others, I'm not sure why Sk…

What they should do (IMNSHO) is say "Yup, we're doing what we said we're doing, but - 1) We will never charge you to use the service and 2) If we do sell your photo you will get a 30% cut." Seems to m…

Are there any good "State Engine" packages for use with Ruby on Rails? I have been working in Javascript for the Windows 8 UI (and probably PhoneGap to make a quick Android port), but if it would help…

Or, you could take a look and notice that Javascript is now supported by Visual Studio, write an app for the Windows 8 Store, turn around and use Phone Gap to port it to Android (rather easy) and iOS …

I'm hoping you're actually working on the service you just described? Between the delivery of meds and labs, it is "interesting" how much hospitals pay just to get things from A to B - though the cust…
