Parse has become so unreliable and my users complain a lot about APNS not going through. It's working for some and not working for many in PROD. Hard to figure why it's not working as everything else you touch in Parse will ask fo

After a lot of back and forth I went with the late-2013 15" rMBP and I don't regret it for a minute. I know, it's expensive but if you can afford and as someone else said here, after you spend some time with the retina displa

If you ask me as a developer of my apps, of course, I'd say all my apps that I developed during 2013 with a special shout-out to my Quotegram iOS app ( https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/quotegram/id705700846

That's a great advice. I would say, in this day and age, if you are starting to learn then learn it correct. Learn a JS framework like Angular and build your client as purely browser based and learn another framework such Ruby-on-Rails

This day and age people tend to get easily low on their morale for every little reason. I wanted to help them quickly recharge themselves with some great quotes that inspires and boost them up, most of the time. In that process I'm wor

Thanks for the great advice. Eventually that's what I did, maxed out the RAM to 16GB and upgraded the SSD to 256GB and compromised on the 13" screen size. Apple Live Chat person said try this and see how you feel and if not then u

I think this make sense since I can always bootcamp it when I need to do something on the Windows side. And that brings a good point, the reason I don't bootcamp now on my 2008 MacBook Unibody is that it's not that responsive when

Wonder how Apple approved this app. It doesn't do anything (I mean, anything) if you forgot about the "get in the line" moment. I'm sure once you get access to it maybe it's the coolest but still wonder how Apple approved the app with this
