Nooklyn makes it easier for people to find apartments or roommates in Brooklyn.
I'm currently looking for a contractor (remote is fine, bonus points for living in/near Brooklyn, NY).
Right now Nooklyn.com is a one-person operation (me) with a couple contractors and I'm looking to grow the team of contractors and eventually hire someone full time.
I would occasionally bury stuff in programs that shouldn't have been there. I was afraid that the teacher might look at my programs and if there was a functional program, would realize what I was doing, so I'd usually have a code language that I could easily decipher but wouldn't be easily figured out by someone else.
I probably gave my teachers too much credit, but the classes that could use calculators were usually taught by teachers who knew about programming the things.
Chances are, if you were able to program the algorithms required to solve the problems, you understood them well enough or more than enough to pass the course.
Definitely not the case for me. I had as many books and websites as I needed while creating those programs, but did not have them available during tests.
It's just like when Apple sold a plastic MacBook. This is not the end of Apple, nor any other hyperbole. This is Apple, doing as a large company does, diversifying their product offerings.
He specifically accounts for this by stating that Apple is and ought to be held to a higher standard because they were previously the overwhelming hegemon in the industry. I don't necessarily agree with him, but the fact that Google also uses exclusively positive languages does not by itself invalidate his point. What he is attempting to point out is that Apple, who is now ostensibly under siege and on the defensive (which, although probably true, is being overrepresented and exaggerated by the media) seems illegitimate and or disingenuous when they remain so overwhelmingly positive: the whole world "knows" that they're screwed and their language seems like a facade. Google and Samsung, on the other hand, are the new dominant companies and thus are justified in using such language.
It also wasn't just TechCrunch who had articles about Mailbox. The Verge had 4 articles in less than a month.
Pretty much every tech news website had quite a few articles about Mailbox, as well as major blogs like Daring Fireball which have a huge readership of iPhone users.
It seems weird to me that this blog post attributes the entire success of Mailbox to TechCrunch, when really, Mailbox's success is because they created a simple and enjoyable email app.
