Apple's Mistake

http://paulgraham.com/apple.html November 2009 I don't think Apple realizes how badly the App Store approval process is broken. Or rather, I don't think they realize how much it matters that it's broken.

What Elgg gets right | Radagast Solutions

The open source social networking application Elgg has been around for a while now. Many schools and other groups have taken advantage of the free showcase Elgg.net site while others have set up their own Elgg sites over at Elgg Spaces . I've looked at many different social networking applications, both proprietory and open source, but I keep coming back to Elgg because of the number of things Elgg gets right. http://radagast.biz/elggright

Technology Review: The Problem with Programming

In the 1980s and 90s, Bjarne Stroustrup designed and implemented the C++ programming language, which popularized object-oriented programming and influenced numerous other programming languages, including Java. C++ remains the archetypal “high level” computer language (that is, one that preserves the features of natural, human language), and it is still used by millions of programmers. Many of the systems and applications of the PC and Internet eras were written in C++. For all that, the language remains controversial, largely because it is notoriously difficult to learn and use, and also because Stroustrup’s design allows developers to make serious programming mistakes in the interest of preserving their freedom. Stroustrup, for many years a researcher at AT&T Bell Labs, is now a professor of computer science in the Department of Engineering, at Texas A&M University, near Houston.

True X-Mouse Gizmo for Window

http://news.cnet.com/2010-1014_3-6123281.html?part=rss&amp%3btag=6123281&amp%3bsubj=news In the increasingly Google-YouTube-Web 2.0 age we inhabit, it's become fashionable to dismiss Windows as a relic. Ask around the office. You'll hear the Gen Xers sneer about how Microsoft's operating system is, well, so yesterday.

The Portable Freeware Collection

Background I started this website in 2004 for a few reasons: I wanted to pick up some PHP. I wanted a quick way of searching through all the portable freeware that I have collected. I wanted to share my collection with like-minded people. Since then, I have learnt that different people interpret the term "portable" differently.

Unison File Synchronizer

Unison is a file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. Unison shares a number of features with tools such as configuration management packages ( CVS , PRCS , Subversion , BitKeeper , etc.), distributed filesystems ( Coda , etc.), uni-directional mirroring utilities ( rsync , etc.), and other synchronizers ( Intellisync , Reconcile , etc). However, there are several points where it differs:

The Most Important Software Innovation

David A. Wheeler First version 2001-08-01; Revised 2012-09-05 Too many people confuse software innovations with other factors, such as the increasing speed of computer and network hardware. This paper tries to end the confusion by identifying the most important innovations in software, removing hardware advances and products that didn’t embody significant new software innovations. This paper presents its criteria for the most important software innovations and sources , the software innovations themselves , discusses software patents and what’s not an important software innovation , and then closes with Conclusions .
A software development process , also known as a software development life-cycle (SDLC) , is a structure imposed on the development of a software product . Similar terms include software life cycle and software process . It is often considered a subset of systems development life cycle .
