You're right. I actually do agree with you and it looks like my complaining paid off. 
I just checked my email and I've been accepted into the appledev program.

Yes, Apple makes you jump through more hoops. With Apple, you will need to renew your developer license every year, re-publish your apps with renewed certificates every year, and go through longer wait periods for your app to get reviewed. It can be a pain. However, Google Play virtually does nothing to verify your app other than scan it for viruses before allowing it to go through to the store. No real person ever looks at it in my experience, while I know Apple looks at it because Apple has a test account that I setup under my apps and I can see when they last logged in (and they've asked me follow up questions). So from developer standpoint, you might think Google Play is better because you don't have to do so much, but from a consumer point-of-view, I have a higher comfort level with Apple knowing someone is taking a look at the app to make sure it is what the developer says it is and it isn't some kind of malware.

That's great information about how the Apple Dev account works.
Thanks and I do agree with you on the safety issues.
At least the app store items are vetted and once you get there consumers have a bit more trust in the app. That's always good for those of us who are doing legit work.

Apple hates developers as far as I can tell. Haven't gotten to the play store yet. Had some apps in the Microsoft store – – very easy.

That's correct. FYI- Mine was a little more, because tax was included.

Just saw a post announcing a new PHP Obfuscator[^].
Surely that's a tautology?

How could they not include an example. That's the only thing I clicked that link for.

Me too, there is a demo page if you scroll down.

I don't have a solution for laziness I'm afraid. At least it's not one of those 'select all pictures with a tree in' or whatever, where you always miss one.

I thought PHP was already obfuscated?

what do you think this perfectly legal C# does?
i => new Func<Func<int,int>,Func<int,int>>(ac => x => x == 0 ? 1 : x * ac(x – 1))(new SelfApplicable<Func<Func<Func<int,int>,Func<int,int>>,Func<int,int>>>(y => f => x => f(y(y)(f))(x))(y => f => x => f(y(y)(f))(x))(ac => x => x == 0 ? 1 : x * ac(x – 1)))(i)

If you print it out and lay it on the floor...follow it with your feet and it's the Texas two step.

Hi All,
Semi-moan against the lack of good quality business cards and surface mount components. I went to meet an agent (?) yesterday and was given one of her business cards. Good quality card stock (0.53 mm thick!) now I need to remember what I needed a 0.55 mm shim! I know in these digital days such things as business cards are irelevant but can get retasked. My big bitch is about surface mount PCB's some times they are designed to be hard to fault find, impossible to repair, or your repair causes more damage than was present in the first place. This is at odds with the current culture of repair and reuse and no one seems to be taking issue with it. I seem to remember there was a bill placed in the US house of representives about the right to repair, I wonder how far it got?

Current culture of repair and reuse seems to apply to things like furniture, clothes, but not to electronics where cheap Chinese imports along with the speed in which things become obsolete make things too cheap to be worth repairing.
|
|
|
|

Yeah, but has anybody thought about the actual damage done in China and the fact that the planet is running out of Aluminium, Tantelum & other stuff, dumping the bits once all the 'useful' stuff has been removed...
|
|
|
|
|
Of course not, out of sight out of mind.

That is why you must always recycle your empty beer cans so they can be melted down and turned into more beer cans. The energy required to recycle aluminum is tiny compared to amount required to smelt it from bauxite. Anything that I can do to make it cheaper to make more beer is a win-win in my book

Why does that bring to mind the Simpsons episode where Lisa is recycling nuts and Homer has to make the Duff cans recyclable (ie. drink them)! The classic line 'Ooh Gee Honey, Daddy can't recy-' as he falls off the chair...

Thousands of old electronic items are sent to China every month so there is a fair bit of recycling - so not only they wreak environmental hell getting the stuff to us in the first place, but then it goes back and happens again and again.
Why china and not the local places: Biggest factor is use of super harsh/dangerous/polluting chemicals/methods to extract the 'good bits.' Next biggest factor is the tons of 'not good bits' left over.
But of course China is in the WTO (at USA's strong insistence), so surely it's not that bad - or was it always the plot to shift consumerism problems out of sight, out of mind.
(Or as they say translated English -> German -> English: 'Invisible Idiot.')

You're a hundred years too late to start worrying about countries being wasteful, except, perhaps, for the current phenomenal wastefulness of fossil fuels and other irreplaceable resources in the USA -- maybe you should start complaining about that.
Something about casting first stones always comes to mind, when discussing East and West.
