Think I must have eaten something bad on Friday as I felt quite ill late in the evening. Anyway, was supposed to be playing golf in the morning so went to bed and hoped I'd feel better. I didn't but I went anyway feeling that a bit of fresh air and sunshine would help.
As we walked up to the first tee I felt a bit odd. Then I was very, very sick all over the back of the tee. Maybe toast and marmalade for breakfast wasn't the brightest idea I've had.
Still, as I was hurling my guts up I could hear my partner say "Let me take a picture!" I felt sure the bastard wanted to immortalize my vomit on the web. No, not at all. He was taking a picture of the group behind us who were all tactfully ignoring my sickness. One of them did say "Is your friend okay?" and my pal said "Oh, he'll be fine!" How the elephant would he know? Barf.
Finally, I felt purged and boy did I feel great. Best round of golf I've had for ages. I'm sure there can be no correlation between being sick and having a great round. Positive...

Thanks: still a little fuzzy and scared to eat anything, but I'll be fine.

Just a developer looking for some app ideas... because I can't think of any.

How about an application that assists developers who've run out of ideas for applications to come up with ideas for applications ?
Perhaps using genetic alligatorrhythms ?

Why only make it generate iseas when it can implement them directly? Let it generate source code, compile it and let the fitness function select by size and the number of errors and warnings. Eventually we will get huge programs that compile without errors.
Testing and selecting by the usefulness of those programs will not be as trivial to do.

Why bother assessing fitness? Just make it post the code to CP and ask for debugging help.

The 'do my homework', the 'I'm lazy and don't want to learn' or the general 'gimme codez' variant?

Given the amount of information you have provided us regarding your skill level, target platform(s), development time line, development environment, projected application price, etc. I can only point you to something like this: http://www.epa.gov/greenapps/ideas.html[^]

Create an app that would allow you to post pictures of people recycling. ..since other apps do not allow posting of pictures of people if they be recycling?

Indeed. I can say with my hand on my heart than none of my apps allow you to post pictures of people recycling.

I'd say that is because none of your apps does allow posting pictures, at all?
And then I heard it like a shot through my skull to my brain,
I felt my fingertips tingle and it started to rain,
When the walls of my bedroom were tremblin' around me,
This ramshackle voice over attack of a bluebeat,
And tellin' me she's only looking for fun.
And this was the sound of the very last gang in town.

Think of the replies you received as flaming arrows drawing your attention towards a place in inner space called "think outside the box."
The Lounge is a nest for first-thoughts: don't you feel less alone, now ?
