Thank you all for your answers. This was really insightful and I will incorporate some of your suggestion into our digital marketing efforts going forward.
I'm not sure about stack overflow ads. Hackerearth also helps developers find jobs and that might a conflict of interest for stack overflow careers.
I will personally reach out to some of you folks. This has been really useful!
Interesting.. should be quite interesting for app developers. Will apple work with partners or is it open for the app developer community? In the case of the latter, any news on a CarPlay SDK?
On another note, I was actually expecting Android to do this first. Interesting times ahead!
Haha, the first in-car app that came to mind was an illegal street racing lap timer. Perhaps it's a positive that the App Store censors will be approving apps, at least initially.
Would have liked some more info on how they counteract the risks of cloning. Firstly, a success rate of 70-80% is unheard of wrt cloning. Survival rate of clones is very less compared to the natural borns (I know that the pigs probably get killed for food, but a low survival rate could be indicative of unhealthiness too). Lastly, cloning is prone to complications during growth. (more on that here - http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/cloning/cloningrisks/)
Your premise seems to be that if the natural born animal is ok to eat, then the clone of it is ok to eat. On the other hand, if the survival rate of clones is less than natural born, doesn't that imply that the two aren't exactly equal?
The survival rate is different because of the way they blastocysts have to be implanted. We have no reason to presuppose that cloned animals will present more risk to eat than bred animals.
Often the only way to get better at something is to do it a lot. I don't think much of the actual product of this factory, but I'm hopeful about the contributions they might make to biotechnology.
Thanks for your feedback. I think we've also reached a point where mobile development isn't new anymore, and as platforms mature, it's looking like the essentials are the same as the other.
On a broad level, I think being mindful of design (UX actually), battery and data are the main differentiating factors from mainstream development, which I think we've covered here.
While you're right about the fact that many great developers aren't on the aforementioned sites, you are taking the case of exceptions.
The problem today is, for the majority of developers, who get day to day work done for products at various companies, to whom software development is just an employment, they are faced with a need to validate their skills.
This is a product for them. Most companies cannot afford the developers that you talk about and the developers probably aren't interested in working for them either.
And lastly, when a company scales, it is difficult to have hiring systems which can discern a good developer from a not so good one. Testing 100s of developers is tedious, even with SaaS products. We believe what we've built can save time, without having to compromise on skills.
But thanks for your feedback, appreciate the honesty. :)
