I remember Appcelerator. In fact I'm still using it to this day. The core Titanium is now open source and the Apps are "true" native. Give them another look and you may be surprised: https://titaniumsdk.com

Just finished this last week. Great read. Truly fascinating in understanding the complexity and sheer breadth of what's involved in getting these out there at scale. Recomended.

Exact same experience here. Mine died after a botched firmware update. Woke up one morning after it had auto-updated the night before. 100% Apple's fault because they pulled the update shortly after but the damage was done. Took it in

At the end of the day they're both good e-readers but for me the larger size Forma was actually the big reason I switched. Portability isn't a factor for me but if it was I'd go for their smaller Libra model. I find the Forma

Kobo Forma. I'm an avid eBook reader so the little things add up. Going from the Kindle to the Forma was a huge upgrade. Font rendering, warm light, larger form factor, and Pocket integration amongst a host of other little niceties mak

Very interesting. I maintain several Titanium projects and I have to agree it seems to have chosen the best paths for basic to intermediate cross platform App development and the recent release to full open source has me excited for its fut

This. I almost returned mine since I couldn't stand the pressure for more than about 20 minutes. As a last resort I stretched it out overnight between some books and they're now perfect. They're on my head 8 hours a day 5 day

I rarely go below the 50mm focal length so the 12-32 has been ok for those rare occasions so far.

Agreed though I think this could go either way. Either Panasonic steps up their line up and becomes the sole M43 manufacturer or it fizzles out. I really think the M43 ecosystem is severely underrated in a world where cameras are pitched so

This really resonated with me and is so well said. I have the same relationship with books and movies and consider choosing a book to read a very precise and intimate choice. I research a book I’m interested in thoroughly prior to committin

I work the same way and having a keyboard shortcut set for each one of my Apps has been game changing for me. Worth trying out to see if it fits your flow: http://macnotes.com/how-i-work-on-my-mac/

Not alone. We have half a dozen of these scattered around the house and use them often. We'll eventually get used to asking Alexa to re-order items but the buttons will be missed. Much less friction than having to ask Alexa and going t

I just finished this last night in fact. My first thought upon completing it was that this should be required reading in every high school curriculum. Very cool to see this happening. Highly recommended read.

No. I may be an outlier but for me its more fluid and faster to hit a physical tactile always visible down button 3-4 times then to tap and hold a non tactile icon and slide my finger down. I'd imagine I'd eventually get used to t
