I think this could bridge the gap for many people stuck at A level and trying to cross to actual communication, which requires lots of interaction so that the words and sentences start popping up.

Made me laugh, but also made me think of all those bad experiences I had working with teams from Indian / Pakistan... I can definitely imagine those guys watching cricket instead of pushing new code.
Re:Ask HN: iOS developers, where did you learn?
on Sunday August 12, 2018 @05:19PM (#17746469)
Went from Android to iOS too.
Basically did a lot of back and forth between Stack Overflow and Xcode. Apple documentation was pretty helpful too, I wish I had more time ingesting it.
I'd recommend making lots of small projects to experiment one thing at a time. Then build your bigger projects from those small blocks.

I had the same idea 4 years ago and did the exact same thing for several apps. This was a bad idea :

Everyone can be offended by anything. If your response involve real harmful ramifications for the other person, you're the one being a dick.
Re:Atom Editor or Sublime Text – which one to pick?
on Friday February 06, 2015 @05:54AM (#9008469)
From a website called "atomtips", it seems kind of biased !
Anyway the dealbreaker for me was the very slow start of Atom (and I've got a very good machine). When every app loads instantly, I'm not going to wait 5 seconds for each new window of Atom I launch.

We could all argue for ages about the legality of such action, but we all know what popcorn time is for : browsing and viewing copyrighted material.
The real issue is the current state of copyright law, created from an obsolete model and then molded through intensive lobbying from the interested parties.
It was said thousands of times, and we will probably need to say it thousands of times more to get this to change.

That's the last app I'm working on. It's quite a challenge to go for a Weather app as there are bazillions of them on the AppStore, but I really enjoy the challenge of it. The feedback have been great for now (it just launched 2 days ago), and I hope to make it even better !

I did not feel the need for a smartphone, now I can't live without one. Maybe this is symptomatic of technology disruption, or just that I do not have the "early adopter" spirit. Wait and see.

Not sure it's really relevant, but I happen to have open-sourced a "dummy app" which was originally intended for educational purpose.
If some are interested : http://alexiscreuzot.com/ColourLove/
I'm not eating about any deficit eating, but normal eating. And high protein is not always a good idea. Everybody doesnt have the same needs. Also there can be long term effect, some of which are still being studied. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/high-protein-diets/AN00847
Exactly. I don't understand why there is such an outrage going on about Soylent. I mean, the guy is legitimately trying his best to achieve an idea he had which interested far more people than he thought it would. What's the matter with that?
Most of the MRP I found are ultra-high on protein and overall aimed toward muscle development. A comparison with Soylent (once its out) could be very interesting though.
I don't think it can be considered as random once a whole million dollar compaign was launched around it (compared to a reddit comment I mean, whatever is written still means nothing till you have a product). And I kind of find Rhinehart post a little more detailed : http://robrhinehart.com/?p=424
I saw that article a while back, it explains why : http://www.ireallylikefood.com/760978972/is-prison-food-tort...
I don't think it's actually a safer alternative to base your diet on a reddit comment. Just saying.
Yes, I also find this expensive (but not insanely given that I probably pay around 300 EU a month for now). I guess the high price could be explained that you are not only paying for the food but also to fund the Soylent campaign (with all the R&D, industrial process behind it). I surely hope it gets cheaper though.
There are two types of foods I find depicted in those documents :
- "Emergency" foods used to prevent malnutrition
- Supplements in order to balance an unhealthy diet and/or reach individual needs
It seems that these goals are completely different from the one of Soylent, which is to provide a food replacement altogether (meaning people will expect it to taste good, make them feel replenished and won't use it as part of a treatment).
Soylent success was not due to a Marketing campaign, but to one blog article that buzzed at the time (when Soylent was not even considered being marketed) : http://robrhinehart.com/?p=298
The Soylent compaign was launch purely because of its success, not the other way around.
