I just got the news that I won $80,000 in the LG webOS Hackathon, where the task was to build a game for LG TVs. I built a game where you are a wizard controlling a wand with the TV remote (which has gyroscopic sensors) to cast different spells and defeat your enemies.
So now I'm going to Seoul, South Korea and presenting the game at the end of the month! 😍
Microsoft created TypeScript as a beautiful, dependable layer on top of JavaScript.
I wonder if someone will do the same thing on top of PHP. It runs everywhere which is great, but the syntax is clunky to me.
I'm seeing the usual iPad complaints about lack of Xcode and poor multi-app switching and ultimately the lack of macOS-ness.
And so can I suggest that the iPad is just not the right device for all of us?
It certainly isn't for me. I love it as a portable media screen, but my actual work is all text: code and occasionally words. Touch and a pen just aren't compelling features for me. Why wouldn't I just use a laptop?
And so why would Apple try to build iPads for _us_ when laptops work better?
