]]> Comment on Verizon charge extra for Android tethering, think users are fools by Vaughn http://www.iovene.com/240#comment-106031 Vaughn Fri, 04 Jun 2010 02:13:00 +0000 http://www.iovene.com/?p=240#comment-106031 It's no longer 5gb, you can recheck the site to verify, it has been updated. Now it's a more conventional "serious abusers will be warned, or frozen" type scenario (i.e. over 20gb might get you flagged). With tethering though - it's like the Exchange fees you're supposed to pay - it still works, I still have access to my works Exchange server and contact list, even calender and tasks if I pay for a $10 app - but they can't really stop me, because they can't tell what I'm actually connecting too - Sooooo with that given, how, in a real technical sense, are they going to stop me from using tethering in an admitedly overpriced data plan? Cripple Froyo so that it doesn't "unlock" that feature unless you pay? Go ahead, it will just give me an excuse to root the phone. Otherwise, I don't see how they could control tethering at all, much the same way they have no control over me connecting to my Exchange server. Totally with you over the asswipes charging for texting - I just use Meebo, its free. It’s no longer 5gb, you can recheck the site to verify, it has been updated.

]]> Comment on Why most programmers are lousy by Chris http://www.iovene.com/56#comment-105591 Chris Fri, 21 May 2010 18:28:41 +0000 http://www.iovene.com/why-most-programmers-are-lousy/#comment-105591 OP, it's an interesting theory, but very subjective really. If this is your commercial experience, then it's your problem I guess. If the programmers you've worked with don't understand the fundamentals of programming, then isn't that down to the development manager? If you aren't that manager, or don't have any input into the hiring process at this point in your career, doesn't that just reflect badly on you and your organisation? Is that what you're grumpy about? Also on the technical community issue, the references are just plain out of date. "Young people today!". OP, it’s an interesting theory, but very subjective really.

There are people out there who care deeply and passionately about programming because they started at an early age. Is your perception of programming so utterly dense and complex that you refuse to believe that it is possible for children to get involved? Please. Just keep your self-esteem problems to yourself.
