The makeup of your diet, among other factors, determined how the body reacts to the extra calories and decides whether to store it more as fat and/or lean muscle mass.

With some custom code and the help of libraries like MacWidgets, you can make some decent native-looking GUI's with Swing. See my profile for an example of one - it's a large-scale…

Apple's been fairly lax lately with its checking. A friend's game that we were able to get crashing on launch 100% of the time passed through the original submit process without a …

I get mostly relevant opportunities, but they never acknowledge that I'm already running my own company, even when contacting me via LinkedIn where that's pretty obvious. These are…

High-protein, low carb and delicious (creamy texture and flavor) at the same time. I alternate between Chobani, Fage and a couple other brands, but the nutritional profile is about…

The Iwata Asks interview for Wii U has been posted. Some interesting insights into the thought process that went into it. http://e3.nintendo.com/iwataasks/

The Fugue set is extensive and is my goto set. http://p.yusukekamiyamane.com/

Our startup's main product uses Java for a UI heavy app because makes it cross platform out of the box and is relatively easy to develop a nice, native looking UI with if you know …

Thanks for the clarification. I missed the Target inclusion on the basic things I was looking for because it's based on the circular, which has fairly little in the way of food ite…

This is pretty neat, and I'd definitely use this once it expanded to cover the stores I visit (WF, TJ's, Target) and a broader range of items. The one pitfall for the current marke…

I use the Sparrow framework and find it to mimic the Flash's API more closely, and the API as a whole is less complex. The primary downside at this time is that the community is le…

The poor in India and China don't eat enough to become obese, let alone gain significant weight. I think that the term "poverty" relates specifically to developed countries where f…

Thanks! The Balls in Space game scored several sponsorships that have collectively gotten it into the 4 figures range, which is pretty good by Flash standards.

Cocos2D is the most popular 2D iPhone game framework. An alternative, if you're used to the Flash/ActionScript way of doing things, is Sparrow. You may also find that if you're doi…

Nothing wrong with that. It was just the first thing that popped to mind when I saw it. I'd love to see a posting about the evolution of the mascot and overall design of the app. I…

The mascot is cool, but am I the only one to think it looks a little close to Toucan Sam (Fruit Loops)?

What fascinates me about Miyamoto is his tendency to allow form to follow function. Whether it's the design of Mario (to maximize visibility), the choice of music to suggest the na…

Sure, I'll list out some of the pain points we're aware of and have tried to address. - Not able to think logically. There's only so much you can accomplish if you take logical thi…

As a founder of a startup doing #3 (Stencyl), I can attest to that idea being an enormous time sink and risk. I can name at least 10 startups or larger companies that went after th…

Our main product isn't a web application, but we're the oddball startup that's using Java/Swing to build a desktop application which is a visual designer for creating both Flash an…
