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

We even have some very simple plugins loading across the process boundary! Most of the team is in Mountain View this week and we’re sprinting to see if we can implement a very basic tab in a separate process today and tomorrow.

Google Geo Developers Blog: Announcing the Google Qualified JS Maps Developer program
Last week at Google I/O we released the Google Maps API (JavaScript version) addition to the Developer Qualification program. Designed for professionals who currently develop or want to develop applications based on Google and Google-sponsored Open Source APIs, the Google Qualified Developer program will help promote developers to the Google community, provide credibility, and leverage the wisdom of the masses in rating and recognizing best in class developers. In this program, we assess developers in four areas, each of which provides a score towards an overall total required for qualification. Developers must maintain a minimum number of points to remain qualified within the program. Points are awarded for examples of development work, community participation, professional references, and scores on examinations.

The Photos application is one of Facebook’s most popular features. Up to date, users have uploaded over 15 billion photos which makes Facebook the biggest photo sharing website. For each uploaded photo, Facebook generates and stores four images of different sizes, which translates to a total of 60 billion images and 1.5PB of storage. The current growth rate is 220 million new photos per week, which translates to 25TB of additional storage consumed weekly. At the peak there are 550,000 images served per second. These numbers pose a significant challenge for the Facebook photo storage infrastructure.
