Crappy developers will make crappy apps regardless of how many layers there are by nicolas Apr 11

There are tons of crappy apps on the AppStore that were written in C/C++/Obj-C, for example. Perhaps Apple should hire more people to insure that submitted apps adhere to UI quality guidelines rather than blaming something that has pretty much no bearing on it. by nicolas Apr 11

I cannot sell development work to have it rejected down the line, there is so much uncertainty around Apple and app rejections that I have personally lost confidence. I see my future in developing good, creative, reliable and useful apps but for other platforms, primarily Android, Apple is just too risky a bet for me as a small business. by nicolas Apr 11

For a game, the UI conventions go out the window (in large part), so most of the it breaks the iPhone experience arguments dont hold water. by nicolas Apr 11

Publishing on console hardware is a vastly different experience... by nicolas Apr 11

I know for a fact that several Unity games have been #1 in the whole store, and a whole handful of other ones have been in the top 10. (Zombieville USA #1, Skee-ball #1, Battle Bears #3, all Unity3D titles). To say that quality applications cannot be produced with middleware is arrogant and frankly dumb. Unity has made Apple a fair amount of money and now they just want to terminate it and its many developers. Steve Jobs used to be an idol of mine, obviously since he has become such a fascist that is no longer the case. by nicolas Apr 11

MonoTouch binds directly to the exact same CocoaTouch APIs that native ObjC apps use. The UIs are built in Interface Builder, again, exactly like native ObjC apps. The only difference is that the apps logic is written in C#, rather than ObjC, which is completely invisible to the user. by nicolas Apr 11

Steve Jobs is a monoplistic control freak. He is misusing Apples position to attack Adobe. I wonder where are FTC and other judicial system to kick Apple hard in their nuts this time. by nicolas Apr 11

I heard that Apple has a patent on How to be a Douchebag. It appears that Apple is using this patent a lot. by nicolas Apr 11

In 1st Amendment jurisprudence in the United States, the term chilling effects is used to describe the potential encouragement of self-censorship resulting from an overbroad law. The theory is that by criminalizing certain kinds of speech that are not obviously deserving of the full protection of the law, the government will discourage other kinds of speech which are on the margins but more obviously protected. This culture of fear spreads as each individual at the current margin of prohibition decides to practice self-censorship, thus establishing a new margin of acceptable speech. by nicolas Apr 11

Forcing restrictions on people just makes them resentful, and thats what is being done to the developers. It hurts both Apple, the developers, and the end users who wont be getting the great app NOT written in a language used to just to satisfy Apple. by nicolas Apr 11
