Daring Fireball Linked List: App Store WTF of the Week (App Store Link)

by night.kame

Ends up the App Store review team simply doesn’t deal with copyright and trademark verification (with the exception of enforcing Apple’s own trademarks, of course). Any beef Nintendo has ([...]) is between Nintendo and Mariolife’s developer. Makes sense.

A partir du moment où Apple touche un tiers du produit des ventes, ça en fait pas sens du tout qu'ils n'aient rien à faire de la propriété intellectuelle concernant les applications qu'ils choisissent de distribuer.

Gridshore » How WTF’s improve code quality awareness

by karlcow

It is very important to report the WTF to the developer who produced the code. Subversions “annotate” or “blame” function provides a means to blame someone for the existence of a specific piece of code. The best way to report this back is through an informative and educational discussion, where everyone could be involved. The factoring should preferably be done by the developer responsible for the code, perhaps with the assistance of the developer who reviewed it. As a result, quality awareness will have improved within the development team.
