I tried feedly, but I'm not very used to it.
I also tried newsblur, the website is very slow, the iphone app seems to be buggy.
I'm waiting for digg now. Otherwise, I will build something myself.
yes, it is.
I started with Android (because I don't need to pay for developer membership), but I hate it very much.
Eclipse is very shitty IDE. So many bugs, so slow, so not user friendly.
I released my ios app a week ago (http://pixelhali.de), only about 1300 downloads so far.
few years ago, A friend and I released an app to the android store, we got 130k within one month.
it looks to me that the app market is kinda saturated.
My team has 4 job openings. The only two candidates who could pass our phone screen are not U.S. citizens.
One is from Russia, who didn't get the visa for on-site interview.
America seems to be very harsh to legal immigrants, but pretty nice to illegal immigrants.
I think it's good for a country to import some competition. After all, h1b has a 60000 cap each year, that's not too many people.
Maybe you can apply for a CS master's program.
There are interdiscipline researches, so called computational chemistry. you use computer to simulate chemical reactions, protein structure... I guess a professor in this area is willing to accept students with chemistry background who can also program. But you need to make sure the program is in CS, not in Chem.
There is also computational biology. simulating Cell division
for example. i guess it's full of chemistry.
I always send my apk via email, and my friends will install it. what's the problem with that?
apk is a file, just like jpeg, mp3. rename it to whatever you like and then transfer.
