I have trouble thinking this 60 year old programmer exists. There were only 2000 computers in existence in 1960. Today a 60 year old programmer that spent a career in computer science is a very small group of people.
I'm going to wait and see how this really turns out.
Currently it is because of the page view controller, but I'm thinking about dropping that in the future. I'll definitely being iOS 5 only at that point.
This list is one of the first list that seems to really coincide with the things that bother me about the app.
I do like the idea of making the left side tappable, and I really do want to change my animation and hope to get time to fix that soon.
Just so you know when viewing a story you can tap the headline to go back. This feature was mostly added for myself, I hope to get a designer to design me something that communicates returning to the front page better than my current methods.
I can tell you've done some iOS work cause you can see some of the shortcuts I took to ship this on time. I hope to fix these soon :)
Like I've already commented its great to hear from you and see which of the features I think are important are also important to people who have tried the app.
The gestures, better fonts, and buttons are three things that are already high on my list to fix, but its really good to hear it from someone else. Be looking for an update shortly.
I was a huge fan of the thesis, but as I kept reading the situation seemed very familiar. Very familiar to the multiple times I have worked for a non technical guy that really just doesn't have a clue.
I was really not a fan of the part where he told his guys not to make excuses, but then made a very large excuse for himself.
If I would have read only the first few paragraphs I would have been a huge fan of this article.
I bet they end up spending a lot less than 10k per employee with the current plan. The current plan means that people who are already donating, the people who would care about this 10K get it, and Apple saves money on the people who don't care.
Our big addition was being able to sort classes by time and day, the university ended up adding that feature, so I guess we got what we wanted?
