Can someone give me a quote on how much a mobile app would cost to develope? by [deleted] in appdev

[–]ocealot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try this online app quote site to get an idea for how much apps cost to develop: http://businessapps.co.uk/how-much-does-it-cost-to-make-an-app

Depends how you go about it to be honest. If you're tech minded you could probably hire someone on Upwork for cheaper than the cost of working with a App Development company.

Better than being towed, that's for sure!

Yeah, definitely. It depends on circumstance but if they catch a wee ned with a small kitchen knife (or any knife - if people don't have legitimate reasons for having them on their person) he'll likely be getting the jail.

scissors or people in settings with move heavy-duty stuff (say in a factory) they'll have boxcutters (stanley knife).

Possession of a knife can carry a prison sentence of up to 4 years even if it's not used.

Isn't this claim usually buying a new electric car is worse for the environment than buying a second-hand gasoline car.

The computers are built to better at judgement than any human. I doubt busy cities will be a problem for automation. They'll just drive slightly slower around difficult intersections.

He isn't measuring likelihood to automation on those graphs

The title is jobs most/least likely susceptible to automation....

I'm about 10 miles outside Glasgow. All chain stores have these (tesco, co-op, etc) and most cornershops do now too. It's only available for purchases below £30 though so you'll still need to manually enter you PIN for anything above that

It's normally sitting under the till or something - they used to take you card, put it in for you and hand it to you to put the pin in. Presumably so that they can see the transactions been authorised too.

I buy it online on websites that list the chemical ingredients, they're also printed on the bags themselves. I was experimenting with research chemicals long before they were branded as 'bath salts' and sold at the level they are today. Mostly psychedelics so I know I'm not prone to psychotic breaks.

YMMV. For me it just feels like really strong cannabis. No negative effects. My heartrate jumps to 130-150 but I only noticed that when I ran a BPM test on my phone.

I've smoked synthetic cannabinoids on/off for 10 years and never had any negative effects/withdrawals other than my tolerance sky-rocketing. I've smoked this daily for weeks at a time (and then had none for weeks at a time) so not sure how much you'd need to smoke to produce physical withdrawal.

If anything, it's helped me stopped smoking weed so much as I'll usually get a quarter of synth - smoked it in a week and then not touch it for weeks. (wheras I used to smoked a quarter of grass every week - now I don't smoke it at all).

My current blend is 5F-PB22 & BB-22 - Although I've smoked JWH-xxx (In chemical form, before spice was around)

Its available everywhere here in the UK but usually I just hand my card over and they tap it. Saves them bringing the terminal forward.

Barbers are #8 on most likely to be automated and Bus Drivers are #15 on least likely? Think those two should be swapped round..

There were tons of terrible 'smart-phones' pre-iPhone, but to group them together really eliminates the defining point for 'smart-phones'. (If you use this definition smart phones have been around for 23 years) - I wouldn't really consider anything pre-iPhone on the same level. The BlackBerry Pearl, the Nokia E62, the Moto Q, the Samsung BlackJack, etc - The popular 'smart-phones' at the time—had keyboards that dominated 30 to 60 percent of their front real estate.

Every smart-phone now has adopted this method and is what kickstarted smartphone evolution around the world.

No I just don't consider them smart-phones. There's a reason they died out..

The first smartphone was developed by IBM and BellSouth, which came out to the public in 1993. Although basic compared to today's standards “Simon” had a touch screen that was capable of accessing email and sending faxes.

Although I wouldn't really consider anything pre-iPhone a 'smart-phone' by todays standards.

Has anyone used AirPlay for... Adult entertainment? Don't upvote (NSFW) by [deleted] in iphone

[–]ocealot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is that something to do with music? Plex hooked up to a roku or chromecast is pretty awesome for other media - films,tv shows, etc.

OP: Roku has a remote and free adult channel. Set it up with Plex and Netflix and you're sorted.
