I mean, in iOS world, we don’t believe in garbage collectors, and we think the Android guys are nuts. I suspect that the Android guys think the iOS guys are nuts for manual memory management. But you know what the two, cutthroat opposition camps can agree about? The JavaScript folks are really nuts.
There is absolutely zero chance that you can write reasonable mobile code without worrying about what is going on in system memory, in some capacity. None.

essentially on the iPhone 4S, you start getting warned around 40MB and you get killed around 213MB. On the iPad 3, you get warned around 400MB and you get killed around 550MB. Of course, these are just my numbers–if your users are listening to music or running things in the background, you may have considerably less memory than you do in my results, but this is a start. This seems like a lot (213mb should be enough for everyone, right?) but as a practical matter it isn’t. For example, the iPhone 4S snaps photos at 3264×2448 resolution. That’s over 30 megabytes of bitmap data per photo. That’s a warning for having just two photos in memory and you get killed for having 7 photos in RAM. Oh, you were going to write a for loop that iterated over an album? Killed.

The Full Story of #Nokia and #Microsoft - How we got here, and why Microsoft will fail with Nokia handsets just like it did with Kin http://communities-dominate.blogs.com/brands/2013/09/the-full-story-of-nokia-and-microsoft-how-we-got-here-and-why-microsoft-will-fail-with-nokia-handset.html
Ok the news is out. I told you literally two years ago, that the Windows Phone strategy would be the death of Nokia’s handset business, and today we have the final nail in that coffin. I honestly, truly with my hand on my heart, hoped this day would never come, and that my prediction would be seen as wrong. But unfortunately I was correct (once again). I do tend to know this industry. And I was the first to tell you, on this blog, that Nokia’s handset business just died. I told you when it happend, and more importantly, I told you why it died. It didn’t die with the crazy Burning Platforms memo, nor with the announcement of Microsoft Windows Phone either. So this is my (first) full epitaph to Nokia. And we have to have a bit of history. (Long blog warning - this runs 12,000 words, so get yourself a cup of coffee, this will take about half an hour

Депутат Костунов сказал: «самый тупой депутат умнее среднестатистического гражданина». На Костунова накинулись, всё ему припомнили: и что единоросс, и что «нашист», комиссар Селигера. Он с перепугу извинился…
А за что извиняться? Депутатский ум и должен быть выше нашего среднего. Мы (граждане) разбавлены грудными младенцами, сумасшедшими, алкашами, наркоманами. А среди депутатов нет грудных; это точно.
Вот если бы Костунов сказал про честность: мол, самый жуликоватый депутат честнее, чем среднестатистический гражданин… Но он этого не сказал, не додумался. http://www.mk.ru/daily/newspaper/article/2012/11/14/774352-im-luchshe-molchat-chem-govorit.html http://echo.msk.ru/pda/blog/minkin/951347-echo/ #медведев #путин #костунов #президент #выборы #оговорки #nokia #apple #iphone #сколково #россия #финляндия #russia #finland #putin #medvedev #obama
I personally have no problem with the whole #Apple #patents brouhaha. Steve #Jobs did a miraculous job on "dumbing-down" the smart #phone, to the point where it now has no buttons at all, and the only thing the user can do is finger-paint on it. The #touchscreen may seem like a cool approach to a user interface, but it also subtly locks the user into being merely a #consumer of information, never a #producer. The rest of the #cell phone #industry has blindly rushed down the rabbit hole right behind Apple. The jury really was right -- the whole world now is filled with iPhones and #iPhone wannabes. These corporations needed a good smack in the side of the head to remind them that Apple's way is not the only possible way to design products. Stuff like pinch-to-zoom is popular because Apple made it popular, not because it is necessarily the best way to do things. Right now, I don't see _anyone_ trying to actually compete with Apple. The default response seems to be what #Nokia did -- just give up, dump your entire internal R&D department, and license the latest #iOS clone from #Microsoft or #Google. Maybe if Apple wins enough patent cases, somebody will get the hint and go back to designing a device that isn't an iPhone
