While improvements in C++14 are "deliberately tiny" compared to C++11, says C++ creator Bjarne Stroustrup, they still "add significant convenience for users" and are a step on the route to make C++ "more novice friendly." Variable constants?

Windows Phone is not only here to stay for the foreseeable future, but it might just be on verge of going big. And the reason I’m saying this is that we’ve seen it happen before, quite recently in fact, and there’s little reason to doubt it will happen again. All the way up to 4% market share?

ComScore found that six brands -- Facebook, Google, Apple, Yahoo, Amazon, and eBay -- built nine of the top 10 mobile apps. "It's no surprise that they're giving none away"

 Hmm. It's interesting though that Instagram, Whatsapp, and others were all started by individuals and were then bought by one of the large companies mentioned *after* they'd already made the top 10.
Stupid article.Quote: Also, it depends on how you define killer app. Games like Angry Birds break app download records but you don't see it appearing in ComScore's list of apps that people spend the most time in. Depending on monetization strategy, that kind of popularity can still yield a big windfall, but typically only over the short term.
Bingo! In other words, their "top 10 list" is meaningless.

The ISO wants to standardize software testing, but it's encountering pushback from testers and is unlikely to get uptake in large companies. Does ISO get paid by the standard?
|
|

Once again the pursuit of perfection is the enemy of progress and rather than getting some kind of standard for software testing then improving it we have endless committees of the subclause. The basis of this standard[^] has not moved out of draft since 2007!
|
|
|
|
|
What we need is a standard on how to define ever-changing standards. A meta-standard. Because changing a standard is not standard. But in this case, as with many, it needs to be. So that when a standard changes, the old standard becomes not standard and the new standard becomes standard.

Less than half of development teams do code reviews and the other half are probably not getting as much out of code reviews as they should. 4 Stars: I laughed, I cried.

Easy. No time spent on code reviews is ever wasted.

Strongly disagree. I've sat through hours and hours of them with previous employers. In many cases I'd argue that the outcome was worse code.
But as the article pointed out, these fell in the: "But you don’t have to do code reviews this way – and you shouldn’t." category.
|
|
|
|
|
Still not wasted. You learned something.
|
|

|

I learned not to do code reviews. So yeah, that's something.

I thought you learned to find a job at a company with a better process.

Into the same category as the smoking uncle of 120 years old.

I'd say it belongs more in the category of the uncle once bit by a dog who was forever more a cat person.
There might be a right way to do code reviews. But I've yet to see it.

I liked that.
Got more out of it than I expected.
Two thumbs up!
