10,000 hours is nice whole cozy number. But it's not about 9,000 hrs or 11,000 hrs. You have to keep at it for an extended period of time. That's where passion and innovation helps you sail thru.

I do not entirely disagree. I don't hate winter but icy sidewalks are scary:) I also agree with your assessment that "...most people are living in generic developments and driving to generic office parks..." But that begets a

Different Strokes. This was my primary reason to choose between New York city and the Bay Area some 6 years ago. The 250 miles radius around the bay area has lot to offer. That said, I do feel there's a deprecation at play. You can onl

Aha factors fizzle out quickly. What they have for a holding company is appropriate and error-free.

Thought provoking. I read it earlier today, dropping in to add my two cents. I've been toggling between roles that either fits into 'product manager' or 'product developer'. That included a short stint as a startup

Stuffs like these are going to be great boost for MS and its cloud initiative. Zenefit-esque product is next on the horizon.

That's enough for me to side with these two guys. I think Magic Leap is not that magical after all.

Yes, it's the employees. Have you ever noticed that working on an ultra-cool product that goes bust won't cut you any slack. You get more credits for minor contributions to known brands than massive contributions to busted product

Probably too late in the conversation. I'm a Pittsburgh product, as in I did my grad schooling from there. I've always found pgh vibrant! I was residing in the Oakland area. I liked everything about it. To this day I call it one o

Party true. But don't be surprised when Tesla revamp their user inputs with Siri-like interface. It's easier to go from touchscreen to voice then nobs-&-bolts to voice. The later is few layers closer to the traditional interfa

I second these comments. It feels like they want to put A-grade designers for electric cars. Same can be said for BMW i3 and (NotSo)SmartFor2. They are joke to say the least.

My undergrad advisor gave one of the best advices about why diploma is important. A college education is a social institution where you work with dozens of students, teachers and staffs across disciplines. Ideally, culminating with a diplom

I can get behind this idea. Elementary homework, more like childhood stress pill. Just replace them with more do-it-yourself type of projects.

I agree with most comments here. App market maturing, user behavior maturing. It was always going to happen. Fart apps could only sustain so long:) Here's my 2 cents - Apple could introduce an Indie category/sub-categories. Commun

Once again, I second the salary-based auction of H1B visas. But there should be no special pool for startups. What is stopping me from setting up a pseudo-startup-body-shop and misuse these quotas? 1. Salary-based auction, 2. Do not bind em

Okay how about one very, very simple question - Can I replace my all of my Swift and iOS+tvOS+watchOS APIs with React Native? To make it easy for you. Can I do that within next 1 year? What will happen when Apple will introduce a slew of ne

Correct, it's not a trivial app by a long shot. Also, a validation for React Native.

I've dabbled with this JavaScript for native code since 2010-11. Appcelerator Titanium SDK (now Appcelerator), Telerik, RubyMotion, Xamarin and of course PhoneGap (including PhoneGap Build). I've not used Xamarin, but putting it t

Sizeable number of visa interviews sponsored by startups are rejected at the consulate. They find it very difficult to differentiate an authentic startup from a phony body shop.

I second that. Change lottery to auction based on highest wages. Also, don't bind the employee to the employer.

Longevity and robustness of jQuery is hard to match. 10+ years for a software project is amazing. Hopefully, in next few years pure ES6 (and later ES7) will give us that joy that's been missing.

Good luck sir getting web stack to work with native that's at par with Swift/Obj-C perf. Also, do share some non-trivial apps that you/your team has built using web stack on iOS. p.s. I've explored JavaScriptCore the fir

The biggest barrier to high fidelity ECMAScript apps on native platform is simple economics. Apple is guaranteed a $99 bounty when you push something on the appstore. Making Safari or WebView compatible with their native APIs and performanc
