Apple’s ‘Planet of the Apps’ is even worse than you thought

You knew Apple’s reality show Planet of the Apps — in which entrepreneurs present their app ideas to celebrity advisers and then a panel of investors in the mode of Shark Tank — was bad. But did you know just how bad? Dubious ethics, terrible advice, heavy-handed branding, and the sense that no one knows what the hell they’re doing: Here is a comprehensive guide to Apple’s Planet of the Apps, available exclusively through Apple Music.

Happy 10th anniversary to the iPhone, ‘a revolutionary product that changes everything’

Today is the 10th anniversary of the iPhone, which first went on sale on June 29 back in 2007, and we’re taking a look back at its launch and early reception.

• Because Of Steve Jobs’s First Public iPhone Call, Starbucks Still Gets Orders For 4,000 Lattes

“Yes, I’d like to order 4,000 lattes to go, please,” Jobs said, grinning. “No, just kidding. Wrong number. Goodbye!”

• How working on iOS differed from working with other mobile systems
• Scars of JavaME

ethics – Is it unethical for me to not tell my employer I’ve automated my job?

So I’ve been doing it for about 18 months and in that time, I’ve basically figured out all the traps to the point where I’ve actually written a program which for the past 6 months has been just doing the whole thing for me. So what used to take the last guy like a month, now takes maybe 10 minutes to clean the spreadsheet and run it through the program.

Runs Linux

Son’s Lego Robotics Club RUNS LINUX!

9 nine year old son wanted to join the Lego Robotics club

Hey guys, I’ve got a runs Linux for you. My 9 nine year old son wanted to join the Lego Robotics club at his elementary school. Because it is a volunteer-run program, I got roped into it. I ended up actually teaching the program and have been having a great time teaching the kids how to program their Lego EV3 robots. There are 12 kids in the group and the school district was supposed to configure 6 Apple laptops with the Lego programming software for us to use. Wouldn’t you know, there were some bureaucratic issues getting the laptops set up. Luckily, since my friends and family know I like to tinker with computers, I have 6 laptops at the house, most of which had been given to me because they had issues, that I subsequently fixed. Poking around in the menus on the Lego robot, I saw that the robot ran Linux (see attached pic). Honestly, I had more than half expected they would run Linux. Imagine my dismay when I went to the Lego website to download the software to write the programs to control the robots, only to discover that the Lego software was only available for Mac and Windows! So I spent a couple of evenings updating the Windows installs on the dual boot machines, and reinstalling Windows on the Linux-only machines, and for the last 6 weeks the kids have been downloading their robot controller programs from Windows machines onto the Linux robots. So the Lego EV3 robots run Linux, and the kids have been having a blast.

Regards
Ed

The iPad Pro has a 64-bit A9X processor that delivers up to 1.6 times faster performance over the iPad Air 2, with up to twice as fast graphics. Apple also says the tablet is faster than 80% of portable PCs shipped in the last 12 months, allowing users to run apps such as iMovie with desktop-class performance.

• iPad Pro Features Improved Storage Controller for Desktop-Class Performance – Mac Rumors

The A9X chip is capable of processing data so quickly, it demanded a new memory architecture. iPad Pro features a revamped storage controller that helps deliver performance better than some desktop computers. This increases read and write speeds, so you can quickly open even the largest files. Like the big 4K movie you just edited or all the RAW images you imported from your HD camera.

PAIGE: A show on the Jupiter Broadcasting Network, interviewing interesting women in technology. Exploring their roles and how they’re successful in technology careers. I’m Paige.
ANGELA: And I’m Angela.
PAIGE: Angela, today we’re going to interview at Linux Fest Northwest live. We’re doing an interview with Scarlett Clark. She’s a developer on the KDE project and also works for Kubuntu.
ANGELA: But, before we get into the interview, I want to tell you about Patreon.com. You can go to patreon.com/jupitersignal to support Women’s Tech Radio and all the other shows on teh Jupiter Broadcasting Network. Go to jupiterbroadcasting.com and see if there’s another show that you might want to listen to in addition to Women’s Tech Radio. Again, go to patreon.com/jupitersignal.
PAIGE: And we got started with this week’s episode by asking Scarlett what she does with KDE and Kubuntu.
SCARLETT: I am a developer for Kubuntu, so I do a lot of the packaging for the software applications for the user to be able to easily install and whatnot. And then, on the other side of the spectrum I created, wrote all the code to automate job creation and job building for KDE’s continuous integration system. Which, it builds the software packages and then test them to make sure that its functional. And then after they all turn green like they’re supposed to, they’re ready to release to distributions like Kubuntu. And I also went the extra step, and we now are testing for OS X and Windows will be coming next.
PAIGE: Oh, wow.
SCARLETT: Yeah, all the code is already in there. It’s just figuring — Windows is a little more complicated because getting dependencies, you can’t tell the continuous integration system to, hey go to this website, download this file, and use it as a dependency. So, it gets little more complicated, but once we sort that out Windows will also be supported with KDE software.
PAIGE: Wow, I had no idea you guys were going for that. That’s really awesome. Before you did this project was their not test coverage for KDE?
SCARLETT: They had a very old system and it was not reliable. And it was also — the job creation was all manual, and OS X and Windows were not supported.
PAIGE: That’s pretty deep in the weeds. Like building, testing, and all that jazz –
SCARLETT: Oh yes.
PAIGE: – for such a big, robust piece of software. Was that you just woke up one morning and decided to do? How did you end up where you are?
SCARLETT: No, actually, Valerie, the gal you just spoke to, they do this season of KDE and it generally targets students. Obviously, I’m not a student. But, this project didn’t have anybody grabbing on it and she just asked me, are you interested in Dev Ops. I’m like, I’m interested in everything. So, she introduced me to Ben Cooksy, the main sys admin guy, and got rolling. I had no idea what I was getting into when I got into it. So, I ended up learning Groovy, Python, and Java on the fly. I had taken a few classes, but that was years ago in university.
ANGELA: What had you done prior to that? Was anything prior to that technology related other than the several classes you mentioned?
SCARLETT: A long time ago I was IT.
ANGELA: Oh, okay.
SCARLETT: But I had not had any real world experience coding. So, this is my first real world experience coding and i love it.
PAIGE: So, you went from no coding to developing a new test suite for KDE?
SCARLETT: Yes, the back end.
PAIGE: So, how was that journey? How did you go through that? Because learning that many languages and that much theory on the fly –
SCARLETT: Yes. At first it was very overwhelming and I just stared at the blank sheet going, oh no. Oh no. But then, I just bits and pieces at a time and things started coming together, and then oh that makes sense. ANd then it just all came together. And then when the final result, we just went live two days ago and it was smooth.
PAIGE: How long did that project take for you?
SCARLETT: It was several months.
PAIGE: Wow, only months?
SCARLETT: Oh yeah.
PAIGE: Wow.
SCARLETT: Actually, yeah, I surprised a lot of people with how fast.
PAIGE: So, doing all that and learning all that, were there awesome resources that you were using? Was it the community? Did you have books that were –
ANGELA: Online courses?
SCARLETT: Google was good.
ANGELA: Yeah, I bet.
PAIGE: So, I have a lot of ladies who are trying to get in tech, and their biggest holdback is learning how to Google the right things. Did you find that was difficult at first., like knowing how to ask the right questions?
SCARLETT: I’ve been using Google since they were in the garage.
PAIGE: Nice, but asking the right tech question.
ANGELA: Yeah, like sometimes you don’t know what you don’t know.
SCARLETT: I know. That’s actually that you have to develop over time, because I’ve learned to figure out what to ask and how to ask it, and sometimes you don’t get it right the first time and you just have to reword it. That can be challenging. That is just it. When I first started the project I didn’t know what I was looking. So, I actually branched off in wrong directions at first. I had a few setbacks because I wanted to go be a docker, which is the new cool technology. But, it wasn’t — with the OS X and Windows, that ended up being wasted time, because you won’t get native builds, because Docker is Linux. That didn’t quite pan out, but it was fun learning.
PAIGE: Yeah, it’s always good to add new stack to your brain.
SCARLETT: Oh yeah. Yeah.
ANGELA: Yeah. Something will resonate and help you learn something else.
SCARLETT: Absolutely. Yelah.
PAIGE: So, tell me the story of why you were in IT before, and then you weren’t, and now you are again.
SCARLETT: That’s a story of — I had to give up my career to follow my husband to another state and I could not recover.
ANGELA: That’s too bad. Well, you have now.
SCARLETT: I have. Well, yes.
PAIGE: Was it really difficult for you diving back in afterwards, or did it just kind of re-spark that? We had a guest who talks about kind of the mental stimulation of being in this technical field.
SCARLETT: Yeah, I’ve been a Linux advocate/user since 1998. I have my big stack of Red Hat floppy disc. But I have always wanted to contribute, and I could never really find my way in. It’s a tight knit community. But I finally found my way in with Kubuntu and Jonathan Riddell. He just stepped up and, you want to learn how to package? I’m like, sure. He just showed me the ropes and I’ve just been riding the cloud since.
PAIGE: How did you get in touch with Jonathan? What was that?
SCARLETT: I knew Valerie from several mailing groups and stuff. She saw that I was doing documentation for KDE. Actually, an easy way in is doing documentation. And then she introduced me to Jonathan.
PAIGE: I think we have some people who are just getting started. What does doing documentation mean? What does that look like?
SCARLETT: The easiest way is to start with, like Wiki. It’s much simpler than Doc Books. You pretty much well have to know XML and the layout and everything. But Wiki is pretty much just plain text. You just find an app that you really love and just use it, and figure out — use cases of, well somebody might want to do this, and then you just instruct them how to do that and just build on it. That’s the easiest way to really get your food in the door, and it’s pretty simple because you figure out ways that you use the application and then just write about it.
PAIGE: I think, especially as a newer user of an application, sometimes you have an even more valuable input for that.
SCARLETT: Oh yeah.
PAIGE: Because you have just learned it. You know where the pain points are.
ANGELA: Yes. That is, in my current conversion to Linux, it’s very refreshing for the Linux Action Show audience to hear this new user perspective.
SCARLETT: Yes, absolutely. And a lot of times, developers don’t even think of things that a user would try or want to do with their application, so it’s a good way to also give feedback to the developers. I worked on KMail documentation and there was a lot of things that I ran into. I would talk to the developer, how do you do this. And they’re like, oh, well I need to fix that. Thank you.
PAIGE: Did you find being primarily in open source that reaching out to the developer, that was actually a welcomed thing?
SCARLETT: Not generally, but with KDE the are surprisingly very open and very, very nice. I’ve just felt really at home with KDE. It’s been a nice breath of fresh air.
PAIGE: So, you know, don’t give up looking for the right community.
SCARLETT: You’ll find it. Yeah. I’ve been looking for a long time and I just stumbled into it and didn’t expect it.
ANGELA: So, are you from around here?
SCARLETT: I live in Portland, Oregon.
ANGELA: Okay. Do you always come to Linux Fest? And are there any other festivals that you go to?
SCARLETT: This is my first one, but I will be from now on coming to Linux Fest.
ANGELA: I know, isn’t it great?
SCARLETT: Yes, but I go to Academy each year, which is in various places in Europe. This year we’re going to Spain. And then in September I’ll be going into a Random meeting which is in Switzerland for KDE.
ANGELA: Great.
PAIGE: Awesome.
SCARLETT: Yeah, fun and exciting.
PAIGE: So, you’re in Portland. Is the rest of the KDE team in Portland?
SCARLETT: No, KDE is all around the world.
PAIGE: How do you guys work together? What kind of tools do you use to keep in touch?
SCARLETT: IRC.
PAIGE: IRC?
SCARLETT: Yeah, I live in IRC.
PAIGE: Do you use version control to work together?
SCARLETT: Git.
PAIGE: Git, which is, of course of Linux. Linus, thank you. What’s your stack of tools look like right now. I always like to find out what other developers are using.
SCARLETT: I use Eclipse because it’s the only good Groovy plugin that I could find. And I use KDevelop for the Python work.
PAIGE: And do you have a favorite hardware, like laptop, tablet that you’re into? Or because KDE is so nice and friendly it works on just about everything?
SCARLETT: Yeah, I have Kubuntu on my desktop, my laptop, and then my phone has, you know, Android.
ANGELA: Nice.
PAIGE: Very cool. So, I guess last question, what are you the most excited about, about what’s coming down the pipe for technology? Either with Linux or just with general stuff.
SCARLETT: We are going to be porting our apps on to Android, so that’s kind of big.
PAIGE: Oh wow, that’s exciting.
SCARLETT: That’s what the whole Switzerland trip is about.
PAIGE: Oh nice. Very cool. We’ll have to keep an eye on that. That will be great. KDE on your Android.
ANGELA: Thank you for listening to his episode of Women’s Tech Radio. Don’t forget, you can email us, WTR@jupiterbroadcasting.com, or you can use the contact form that is over at jupiterbroadcasting.com.

Yahoo renews Microsoft search partnership – Business Insider

There are two major changes.

• Yahoo was responsible for the sales relationships for Bing search ads under the partnerships previously. All of those sales relationships are going to come under Microsoft in the coming months.
• The new deal now only requires Yahoo to pull a majority of its traffic from the Bing ads marketplace. Just 51%, rather than the 100% it was required to pull before. That means the other 49% of Yahoo’s search traffic could be monetized by Yahoo’s own ad units or by another search provider, like Google.

The are some HUGE ramifications:

• Yahoo has a lot of flexibility with the 49% of its search traffic that doesn’t have to be monetized by Bing. It could sell that traffic to Google, for example. That would immediately boost Yahoo’s revenues. One reason that may not happen is that, back in 2009, Yahoo tried to do a search ads deal with Google, and the Department of Justice scared Google out of it. Also, Mayer talks a lot about Yahoo’s own ads product, Gemini.
• Yahoo will probably be able to cut costs, shrinking its search ads sales force.
• Microsoft will have to hire a search ads force over the next couple months.

Microsoft will bundle its apps on Cyanogen’s Android OS | The Verge

Rumors of a Microsoft and Cyanogen partnership have been making the rounds recently, and the Android mod maker is confirming them today. In an email to The Verge, Cyanogen says it’s partnering with Microsoft to integrate the software giant’s consumer apps and services into the Cyanogen OS. Bing, Skype, OneDrive, OneNote, Outlook, and Microsoft Office will all be bundled later this year. As part of the partnership, Microsoft has committed to creating “native integrations” on Cyanogen OS.

These native integrations will likely result in increased integration for Microsoft’s apps and services in a way the company has been trialling recently with Android. Microsoft has experimented with a number of Android apps, and even a Next Lock Screen that aims to replace the traditional lock screen of Google’s Android OS. These experiments, and Microsoft’s many Android apps, are all aimed at pulling consumers away from Google services on Android.
