> On an unrelated side-note, if you've played Half-Life, Freeman's Mind is a must-watch: it's an astoundingly funny bit of comedy that is just so brilliant. True. Also I just learned that he actually finished the whole gam

Currently I found peace of mind with react+redux. Once you find a stable and well configured boilerplate (Redux slingshot for me), it's smooth sailing.

As much as I would love to switch to GitHub for our private repos, it still is way more expensive than BitBucket.

This kinda defeats the convenience of this kind of key free systems though.

I'm pretty happy with the changes that tone down the DOM pollution. The versioning is a little odd though.

Lucky you. My samsung oven has something like 20 buttons with cryptic icons. Feels like an old VHS remote control.

Way faster. We are using a rails API and a React+Flux app as a front end. The whole setup time alone is a considerable pain. I feel that the JS tooling is still too fragmented and sometimes messy, but I'm probably biased by years of ra

That would be great. Any idea on how effort is required for an incubator to become affiliated? My incubator is a university, so they move their butt at a painfully slow rate.

I share your feeling. We are running our cloud platform on AWS, and it's hard to offer competitive prices when you are not founded and the AWS bills kick your ass. We are in an university incubator that gives us the office space (we pa

Yeah, the "meticulous design" made me chuckle. And they put it as the first selling point. "barely controlled mess" would fit better.

What do you mean by lack of retro compatibility? You can still ship apps that target ios6, you have runtime checks for APIs that are missing in one version, the IDE suggests what is available or not. The major versions (and minors) are thor

We're pretty happy with React+alt. The development is streamlined and easy to understand.

Exactly. I'm a developer, but I try my hand desingning most of my apps. Sketch replaced Illustrator and in part Photoshop. I do all my vector graphics with it, from mockups to production assets. It's fast, easy to use and made by

Getting started is one thing, completing a product is another. It's not an uncommon metric to apply a 1.5x or 2x multiplier to the development time of an iOS app to obtain the time to develop the Android one. I would also argue that f

Luckily no, organized crime is spread mostly on other regions, and as far as I know it doesn't seem involved in the ICT field. At least I hope :)

Yeah, the problem is that with this line of reasoning a startup is destined to fail. If I don't get clients, I can't keep my business open. That's what irks me. How can I prove myself in the market if I don't get a chanc

iOS development will always be native for me, the tools are not perfect, but they feel right, I can get stuff done in no time. Android on the other hand... I can't express how much I loathe the tools and language. So much that I stoppe

As far as gadget goes, "newer is better" is a dominant factor in Europe too. The problem lays in the enterprise world. One time a client told me "you call this Visual Basic application old, but it's not. It's consol

Unicorns? Ha! It's hard to survive, let alone be successful. No investors, convoluted laws, high taxes and complete lack of startup mentality. I'm a cofounder of an italian startup, and the road is on an unbearably steep slope. T

Yeah, I wanted to try Relay for a small project a month ago, but getting started seems really time consuming, and the documentation was pretty poor, with just a contrived sample. The architecture seems great, I hope they improve the doc now

Then people started buying 3rd party crappy stylus, because drawing with just your finger is hard. If there's demand, it would be stupid not offering a solution. The stylus is an optional, not included nor needed for the iPad Pro. Peop

It's meant to be used alongside the grid system of bootstrap/foundation/pure/etc... As a rule of thumb: grid system for the general positioning in the page, flexbox to align the items of the block.

Yes, Menlo is my go-to font, I use it in the terminal and with Xcode. Always had.

For me the Chrome tabs merged with the app is one of the most confusing UI choices I have ever witnessed. Glad to hear that it can be switched off though.

Oh, I just reached the point where Ayaka talks about Carthage. That's a pretty straightforward solution, nice.
