Having said that, I'd be much more worried about losing source code than it becoming public -- losing source code would be completely catastrophic, having it go in to the wild wouldn't be a huge deal (obviously it would have some effect on our business, but nothing compared to losing code).

Or maybe the answer is to figure out a way to get them into the software. I have no idea what it is... I'm just imagining, if I had to get motivated to work on payroll administration software... umm... I might be able to find a way (like ways of making interesting paycheck amounts?).

Question: how different is mac-coding, compared to linux and/or windows? [permalink] Asked by ccernn (80.203.117.x) on July 18 2010, 12:32am Reply on July 18 2010, 11:33am (edited at July 18 2010, 1:22pm):
Where it primarily differs is that the recommended way to build GUI stuff is now Cocoa, which is Objective C, so that takes some getting used to. Objective C isn't bad, but it is quite different in syntax from using Win32 or GTK+ for example. There is also a deprecated Carbon API, but one probably shouldn't bother with it at this point. One issue with OS X that I've found is that there are generally about 5 different ways to do the same thing, and often it's hard to figure out which one is best (or even to find most of them). Recent examples include CGBitmapContextCreateImage() -- the obvious way to do something, that is soooo unoptimal. Or if you try to draw text to a RGB buffer, there's lots of choice in how to go about it (and no clear winner). Question: If you had a large team of engineers, who were daycoders, how would you motivate them to give a shit?
