I’ve often wished for this! ICYMI, next best option is plugging your iPhone into MacBook via Lightning cable so the tethering connection doesn't drop and your iPhone stays charged.

Good thought, but Apple is the gatekeeper here - not sure changing your license will help. What if they continue to use the methods without using Mogenerator (they could easily write their own categories to implement the methods for example

Great resource, but we've always found the issue with these to be the level of polish expected on iOS. On occasion you spend as much time customizing these controls to fit with your UX/UI as you do building it from scratch. As an added bene

As I posted on the freshte.ch blog, the commercial drive behind Siri is that you don't use Google when on Apple's platform. Google coming out with a competitor that stacks up feature-wise doesn't fix that for them because it will only run o

Any thoughts about putting this on a smartphone?

I agree. I can't say I like standard practise of employers owning everything their employees do whether in or out of work, or requiring that you stop anything they don't own. However, this is hardly something that is limited to Goldmans or

I guess it probably depends on the position/team. I wouldn't expect GS to open source anything they consider a competitive advantage, but then I don't see Google open sourcing their search algos either :-)

I can understand the reaction on this community to the news, and I'm sure that there are elements of PR and recruitment strategy here, but I happen to know that the primary driver is pretty sound; job satisfaction for top employees. Goldman

Great example of an acquisition that will work out - two startups motivated by the same type of goals and both, as far as I can work out, optimised for happiness, not optimised for profit.

I got stock options in exchange for sweat as a consultant in what is now a NASDAQ listed company. Great deal, which netted about a 10x profit over the money Id have been paid. Of course, not without it's risks, but as a freelancer I feel my

The guy talks about tired analogies, whilst making one that looks positively sleep deprived in his headline and conclusion!

All of these Apps are small, focused and free... Loving LiveReload, Mou and Launch Effect.

Sounds excellent - would love to create an ObjC server/client library to take advantage of this!

Great to see some positive press on HP. Hope HP can innovate their way out of the current slump.

I can see this starting to take over simple tasks. Love the idea of being able to dictate a reminder, or ask the phone to wake me up at 6AM (7AM?!). How much quicker is it ask those questions, rather than navigate to the App, input the info

Just because they have a patent doesn't mean they will manufacture a product. Perhaps they just don't want their competitors to put it in their products, for example.

Is this officially licensed from Apple? If not..how long will Apple let it stand?

Totally agree. IB doesn't make any sense to me either. You end up with some presentation code in one place, and some in another. Also, what happens if you set all your background colours to white in IB, and then the branding/design people c

Thats week one with a big marketing push..we see at least that amount per day for our paid branded apps, and they have been around over a year and receive no marketing spend. I'm pretty sure the sales will drop off, like any iOS app.

I've a friend whose company released a decent quality branded App on the Market recently. It was backed by a good amount of advertising/marketing and was pitched at the correct demographic. The total number of paid week one sales? 68
