   I'm in the same position thinking of making a pivot into the security sector (coming from a mobile developer background). I think if you're good and always on top of infosec stuff and contribute to the community, you'll alwa

    I think where they are going is completely amazing. I have dealt with cocos2d in the early days and it was kind of hard for a beginner to pickup and there weren't as many tools out there to work on sound, sprites and tile maps. But its nice

    This article seems a bit sensationalised. It kind of reminds me of the late 90s early 2000s where NetBus and BackOriface were popular.

    I am currently working on an app which uses Three20 and I have to say the way it integrates into ios projects is kinda crappy. You have to jump through a lot of hoops to get it to work. They should have made it a simple drag and drop lib/fr

    I think this is really interesting stuff. I personally think that the startup scene needs to be better developed in Australia. When I was just coming out of University (UoW circa late 2008) people's mindsets were different than they are now

    Its also not a good thing that we don't know who Facebook or Google is selling this or giving this information to. The advertising agencies, meh kinda. The organisations with acronyms, they are more worrisome. I also wonder, to what extent

    I think that the audio/music from the iPhone is passed to airplay which is triggered by sending commands to Siri, then via the airport express is connected to a device created by Yamaha to then convert the song to play on the piano.
