Same here. Both copies I ordered were not working on arrival. I tried to switch the batteries but they were really stuck in there (can’t easily remove them without bending/breaking), eventually got them out and replaced them but one of the copies still didn't work. Reached out to the creator but he just said try swapping the batteries. I still think the idea of the book is great, just wish the execution and support were better.

Clear and concise write-up, thanks for posting. I especially appreciate the comparative graph at the end.
In practice, I tend to use "method 3" most of the time as I feel it has the best balance of complexity and practicality while still being able to deal with label noise.

I agree, Mindstorms are really good. If they're not that used to programming yet they can start off using the graphical programming language (NXT-G). Then, when they're ready to really dig in, they can start using C.

I graduated with a traditional engineering degree too and the start of my career sounds similar to yours.
Here's my advice: Pursue what you are interested in. If you don't you will always have a nagging what-if feeling in the back of your mind. Nothing is set in stone and if you decide later that the EE path is more appealing you can get back into it later.
It might be a little harder to switch back but IMO the reward is worth the risk. Since you're a recent graduate, right now is a good time to try stuff out.
Good luck.

Re:How I killed app sales by going freemium
on Sunday June 07, 2015 @04:08PM (#9676194)
After averaging $5.00/day for a year with my iOS app using a freemium model ($1.99 in-app purchase), I decided to switch to a paid upfront model just to test. It resulted in a sustained average of $25/day. That's a big deal to me and so counter to everything I read about freemium being the only way to go in today's mobile market.

So far I've been promoting it on reddit and telling friends who play the game. I'm going to try and get some reviews done and reach out to some streamers on twitch. Do you play CS:GO?
Re:Show HN: I Made an In-game Companion App for CS:GO

Pretty good so far, thanks for asking.
The CS:GO community seems to like it but it only launched two days ago so I'll need to wait a bit longer to get some in depth feedback. Need to do some price testing for the next few weeks.
If there are any CS:GO players on HN I'd love to here your feedback/suggestions.

Re:Ask HN: About to code iOS8 iPhone app but havn't done any iOS dev yet
on Wednesday June 11, 2014 @01:34PM (#7879245)
I would recommend learning Objective-C. For your first app, you'll probably be doing a lot of Google and Stack-overflow searches and the vast majority of results and examples are in Objective-C.
I would also recommend picking up one of the Big Nerd Ranch iOS books [1] as I found them quite helpful. Good luck.
