[JaggedSac]

Hair is more tame today. What does that mean?!?!

 

[Doffen]

Can consumers get new hardware? pls?

 

[dLMN8R]

[Totakeke]

Time for the people hub!!! GET HYPE!!

This guy reminds me of Big Head from Silicon Valley.

 

[Pooya]

ahahahahahha apples

 

[StudioTan]

Now I see why they got all the coding stuff out of the way early.

 

[Angelus Errare]

This guy reminds me of Big Head from Silicon Valley.

Immediately what I thought.

 

[Steelyuhas]

Based Joe B

 

[clav]

Wow that's a really new build.

Close to RC?

 

[GreyWind]

New animations!

 

[Somnia]

I have a feeling Win 10 phones won't have an issue with support of games/apps lol

 

[Lucius86]

Live tiles are 3D :-(

NOT BEAUTIFUL

 

[Bsigg12]

Can someone explain the website integration with Windows? I missed that.

Websites that add the functionality can recognize when you are using a Win 10 device and allow you to essentially turn the website into an app by downloading it. At least that's what I remember.

 

[clav]

Ads in start menu.

Uh oh.

Prepare for the backlash.

 

[Majine]

Ohhh, Windows 7 translucency!

 

[Raide]

I have a feeling Win 10 phones won't have an issue with support of games/apps lol

If they can nail it, they should never have problems if they give developers an easy way to port/develop for Windows Phones.

 

[lastflowers]

PEOPLE HUB. PEOPLE HUB

Interesting, thanks!

 

[Lynn616]

Love Joe.

 

[Doffen]

PEOPLE HUB. PEOPLE HUB

That's your project?

 

[Ensirius]

This also allows the website to bring notifications to WIN10 natively!

 

[kazinova]

That's your project?

People hub demo is a running WP joke. (Please don't make the obvious "WP is a joke" joke)

 

[Schrade]

I hope all this listening service stuff can be disabled.

 

[Raide]

This also allows the website to bring notifications to WIN10 natively!

I am assuming this is almost like having an RSS feed built for the site you run that shows notifications?

 

[MrGreencastle]

ads ads ads

now ads in your lockscreen!

 

[Dorsal Axe]

I hope all this listening service stuff can be disabled.

I think Joe already said it's optional.

 

[Arkanius]

Ads on the lockscreen?
Boner killed

 

[StudioTan]

I don't want ads on my lock screen, sorry.

EDIT: Optional, good.

 

[RoyalLaFlame]

Ads?

Oh, you can disable it.

 

[Man]

Who will develop in Objective-C in Visual Studio? Mac environment is moving over to Swift. It's the sole environment that has kept the language alive. Are Microsoft hoping to extend the life of Obj-C to be a thorn in Mac's side?

 

[Boaty McBoatface]

touting ads as 'personalisation'

 

[Darkangel]

Nice to see that the ads are optional.

 

[Iced_Eagle]

I hope all this listening service stuff can be disabled.

You can disable it. It's just a toggle in the settings.

 

[ANuclearError]

Did he say that the Start Menu suggestions were optional too or just the lock screen one?

 

[Penguins&PolarBears]

ads ads ads

now ads in your lockscreen!

Yeah basically. Spotlight is ads for Windows 10 apps and features on your lockscreen. Fortunately optional.

Keep in mind they are talking to developers who are making apps about how they are going to promote their apps in Windows 10.

 

[dLMN8R]

Did he say that the Start Menu suggestions were optional too or just the lock screen one?

I'm pretty sure app highlights are a matter of right-click on one and there's a disable button

I haven't developed on OS X for a while. How quickly are people shifting over to Swift as their first or usual choice?
I'd be genuinely surprised if Obj-C isn't still the main language for many years to come.

 

[Fatalah]

I can't wait for the next Surface.

 

[clav]

Windows Phone experience on Windows 10.

 

[Majine]

Cortana tapping into third party apps? That's pretty cool.

IE next? IE12?

What's the name?!

 

[Lucius86]

SPARTAN?

Swift, Apple’s new language for iOS, has received a special chapter in this report due to its “unprecedented” adoption levels just a few months after being announced. 20% of all mobile developers are using Swift and 2% are using it as the primary language. 48% of Swift adopters are also using Objective C, but not as primary language, while 23% of them were not using Objective C. This is considered as “a good sign for Apple” because “it should lead to more truly native apps being created in the future”. The remaining 29% of these early adopters of Swift are developers already using Objective C as their primary programming language.
