In 16 years, this has only happened once. I had an application running on 64-bit MySQL. We had a legacy app running on 32-bit Oracle. New CTO came along and made me switch the new app to Oracle since he didn't want to support two DB platforms. Didn't have ORM or Stored Procs (MySQL didn't support SP at the time). The SQL wasn't that complicated, but it took me a week to convert the whole thing. Downgrading to 32-bit DB slowed it down considerably. I left the company once the update went live.

You should look into something like Sharepoint for this functionality. http://sharepoint.rackspace.com/

I only use 1password across OSX, iOS and Windows. I share my vault via Dropbox as iCloud doesn't play nice w/ Windows yet. You can add custom fields into login records to save your 2FA stuff. Just flag the field as a password and it won't show in plain text until you "reveal" it. It's one of the few of these kinds of apps that are being integrated with other iOS apps at the moment (e.g. eBay, Uber and Disney). Safari already has an extension for 1password. I just tell it and Chrome to not ask to save passwords and log in via the extension.

I worked at GetThere/Sabre for a few years. There is no public, free API for this information. There is no "all in one" Computer Reservation System out there. You have to go through any number of CRSs depending on which airlines you want to search.

For example, orbitz seems to still use the Galileo CRS. That CRS gets its data from a number of airlines, but not all. I'm also certain that no access to these CRSs would considered "affordable".

What research have you already done?

So a company that no one cares about is purchasing another company that no one cares about?

In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

You're the only one that can answer that question. Is it worth it _to you_ to learn with those old school restraints vs. modern architectures?

How about posting a direct link to the story? Oops, it's already been done.

You want hardware to swipe a card, that's compatible with tablets and smart phones, but isn't a dongle (https://squareup.com/reader)? Or, I suppose, their POS stand (https://squareup.com/stand)?

Do you just not want to use their software? You want to use the hardware with your own app on a tablet or phone?

Android May Outsell iPhone, But Developers Make More Money On iOS Apps

"Evans says that iPhone owners are more likely to spend money on apps, rather than skirt paid content for free ad-supported apps.

Android phones average $250-$300 where iPhones average $600,” Evans points out. “People who choose to spend the extra money are sending a signal about their intents.”

There's a professor I know that claims he can get you back to 1994, but beware: he keeps calling everyone Marty and thinks there are people out to get him.

Apple devices have been able to upload files via HTML since iOS 6.

If you want to incorporate Google Drive or Dropbox, go ahead, but know that many corporate environments block those services, which is why basic HTML file uploads are still the standard.

Why would "conventional thinking" expect them to use Androids?

These are the drivers' personal cars and the drivers' personal phones. That's like saying "conventional thinking would expect Uber would have them all drive a Prius."
