Google Holding Chrome OS Event Thursday. Complete Overview And Launch Plans To Be Revealed.
Google is planning to hold a special Chrome OS event at its headquarters in Mountain View, CA this Thursday morning, we’ve just been notified. The plan is to give some technical background information as well as show off some demos, we’re told. More notably, they will be giving a “complete overview” of the new OS, which they say will launch next year.

IE 9: First look at the new JS Engine
The IE team is busy working on the next version of the world's most popular browser. IE 8 is the most widely used browser on Windows. IE 9 is currently in the oven and the IE team is ready to talk about what they're working on. Here, JavaScript engine team members John Montgomery, Steve Lucco and Shanku Niyogi give us an early look at the new JS engine that will ship with IE 9. As of the interview, it is on par with the latest performance numbers of the latest Firefox beta and making progress in catching up to Chrome's latest V8. Again, this is a really early look at where the JS engine is and where it's going (and what they've done, architecturally, to speed up IE's JS engine).

The competition is heating up...which is a good thing

Now I'm thinking: How will be Microsoft in some days?
I think Windows 7 can't beat Chrome OS

There's already a forum for it!

Windows Phone 7 DRM for Apps Cracked with Proof of Concept Program [Video]

Security is an important aspect of anything that gets used by anyone, at any given moment around the world. For developers of applications that get purchased through a digital storefront, like Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 Marketplace, making sure that it’s not easy, next to impossible in fact, to steal apps and put them on a device free-of-charge is just as important. But, as WPCentral reports, it looks like the Digital Rights Management (DRM) security tools set in place by Microsoft have been cracked!

Fortunately, though, the program that is being used to do so is not known to the general public. In point of fact, the “white hat” developer that created it is just showing it as a proof of concept. If the program were to make it out into the world, then it would be possible for some people out there to strip the DRM from applications available in the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace, and then download them for free.
As of the time of this writing, Microsoft hasn’t made an official comment regarding the security hole. WPCentral has been in contact with Brandon Watson from Microsoft, but so far they have not heard back from him. The video demonstrating the proof of concept program making short work of DRM for the Windows Phone 7 applications can be viewed below.

I hope they fix this security hole soon. I'm not even a developer and I see this as a really big problem for the WP7 platform. I'm sure iPhone and Android developers do not have to be as worried about pirating only because the volume of paying customers is so much higher. With a much smaller customer base, anything that would discourage a WP7 developer from developing for the platform is bad for WP7.
Note: Shouldn't this be posted in the WP7 General forum? It has nothing to do with HD7.

is this video realy evidense that this is working?

Introduction

Hello, XDA.
I joined the forum after hearing that is was "basically the hub of anything to do with Android." I also joined because I'm in the beginning stages of developing Android applications (learning Java), and I eventually wish to release a free, open source application to contribute to the community -- to the world. I won't be specific as I really can't at the moment; I'll be a little more specific when I finish the Java tutorials by Oracle. I don't intend to reinvent the wheel, I just expect to make it better. =p
My goal on this site is to integrate, learn, and enjoy myself at the same time.
Albeit insignificant, I am familiar with a coding language called "gotos" or so I've heard it called that. More specifically, the Mugen engine that focuses on developing fighting game characters and stages through a compilation of graphical and audio components. The coding is mostly based off of physics and trigonometry (two subjects at which I excel) and a bunch of other cultural expectations.
Away from the digression: The ancient syntax of the Mugen engine, believe or not, has helped me a great deal in understanding the object orientated language known as java.
In java, I'm not ready to code any applications or anything yet, but I understand the basic functions so far. I'm just finishing up the Interfaces and Inheritance portion of the aforementioned tutorials. I know it will take years for me to become a wiz at this java stuff. I mean, I've been doing Mugen for 4 years and I'm still learning new stuff (and the coding language is as easy as it is inferior).
I own a Galaxy S2 phone, am running gingerbread (I think that's what it's called, this uncertain is exactly why I'm a n00b). Whatever that information is worth. Maybe I should put that in my signature.
Anyway, I hope to integrate well. I am not new to forums, so I don't expect to step on anyone's toes or anything. The video before I registered was very, very entertaining, but nothing in it surprised me.
Cheers, Mr. Holmes.

Welcome. I'm new too.

Welcome to the forum mate, and good luck with your app development.

[GAME][Android 4.0+] Sic Semper

EDIT: Now in open(and free!) beta! PM me for details
I'm close to finishing my new game, "Sic Semper". It's a space exploration and combat game with a randomized galaxy of 200 stars, each with a random number of planets(between 1 and 5), each with randomly generated terrain.
For the backstory: Humanity was almost entirely conquered by an alien race called the Ypetigan shortly after achieving interstellar travel. All that was left was a single secret facility working on a ship that would be capable of defending itself against the Ypetigan. The player takes command of that ship to rebuild human civilization by colonizing planets, expanding across the galaxy, and eliminating the Ypetigan.
Sic Semper features 7 different ship types, 6 weapon types, 4 types of turrets and 12 component upgrades. Initially, Sic Semper will be released for Android, but I also plan to release on basically any platform I can(I've made proof-of-concept ports of older builds to ubuntu using Qt and Chrome native client).
Here's a video of some of the basic gameplay in action(sorry for framerate issues, it's the fault of the screen recorder I used. I typically get ~60fps in practice):
And here's some screenshots:

Also, here's the full album, if you want to see screenshots of progress dating back to March, 2012(I've been working on the game for more than 2 years): https://plus.google.com/photos/116688016659241634367/albums/5667908906736055633?fd=1
Finally, for a little technical info: The game uses my own custom gameplay and graphics engine using OpenGL ES 2.0. I wrote all the code myself(hence the > 2 years of development), got the ship models from turbosquid and the sound effects are modified versions from Freesound.org. I'm planning on releasing to the Play Store initially(probably 1-2 months down the road) and then Ouya(I already have controller support and have tested it successfully on Ouya). Then I'll probably port it to PC and possibly Chrome Native Client.

I'm now ready to open up a beta. PM me your google account(invitations have to go through google+) and I'll send an invite to the beta test(This will happen in stages, first come first serve).

Cool
That's perfect. hard and done a great job

How Huawei's HMS Core Helps Developers

Huawei has launched HMS Core Services 4.0 which promises to bring efficient application development, rapid growth, and flexible monetization. Let's take a close look at HMS core services and see how they help developers.
Huawei Mobile Services Core (HMS) Development Forums​
HMS Core Services 4.0 includes the following features:
Some of these services may seem familiar to you, as a number of them date back many years. Features like Account Kit have had time to mature and be polished with many updates. Other services like Location Kit and Analytics Kit and newer and have only been around since late 2019. The latest release of 4.0 includes ML Kit, Awareness Kit, Scan Kit, Nearby Service, as well as all the features shown in the graphic above. Huawei still plans on adding many more features in future updates.
So why would a developer want to choose HMS over GMS? HMS Core's service scope already encompasses most of the services in GMS Core. Huawei has also been a little bolder in exploring new terrain where GMS hasn't bothered to venture. For instance, with HUAWEI ML Kit, HMS Core is a step ahead of GMS Core in providing machine learning capabilities. Although Google has cutting-edge artificial intelligence capabilities, it has not yet added machine learning to GMS Core.
These are some of the ways that HMS 4.0 is helping developers, and offering an alternative solution to GSM.
