I think his wife makes them.

I hope it gets to 0%.


There goes the myth that your data is safe with apple. All these vulnerabilities might have been already known to multiple parties before these people discovered them.


With the "trade war" going on I wouldn't be surprised if this was intentionally put out in order to reduce the us dependency on china.


Overpriced corrupt vendors are likely hurting to open compute designs and hardware.


I built http://www.pseudoglossa.gr/ (you need flash) a web interpreter, ide, debugger with cloud support around 10 years ago when such software was a rare commodity.

It contributed a lot in getting the students and the teachers in the lab to get some hands on experience with programming.

It also spawned the creation of other applications that embedded it and provided classroom management and automatic correction.

Although I am not a teacher anymore I keep it online and a lot of people still use it regularly. Even if you don't know english you can start programming in your native language at a young age.

Never got support from everyone though but it was fun and challenging to make it.

Everything from the editing component until the interpreter and the execution environment had to be made from scratch.

The code is in github https://github.com/sstergou/pseudoglossa.gr


This is another example of a corporation that's too greedy and dishonest. Apple is by no means the only one. I'm sure there are going to be many "fan boys" and girls or maybe marketeers that will try to justify this, but the fact remains that the company that manufactures and sells the most expensive device in the market and has 100% control over the hardware and software , is degrading its performance on purpose. The user has no knowledge of this (hence the lying) and doesn't have the option of replacing the battery in an easy way. Who tells me that this isn't part of a strategy so that the user will buy the newest and more expensive phone...


Nice idea but not executed to it's full potential.

I use an alarm for waking up. I expect a fast, usable ui to be able to set the time fast and options like recurring alarms,weekly scheduled alarms etc.

I wouldn't replace my vendor's slick, feature full without ads app for something that is not as least as good.


Very fair, this is just version 1.0 and I have lots of plans for things I think might persuade you soon, but for now I totally understand. I'll be back


I'm a person that wanted to give them another chance and got my self a Lumia 930. They didn't deserve it. Sometimes I get the feeling they are incompetent.


That's very impressive. Do you have an example for http://todomvc.com/?


Good question - the quick answer is no, but we hope to put one out soon.
