Silicon Valley’s corps of engineers have little tolerance for dishonesty. The implicit bargain they strike with the MBAs who turn their work into money: Keep the lies over on your side. Lie to investors, partners, reporters; just don’t lie to us. There’s no room for lies in the world of code; software works, or it doesn’t. That may be a Pollyannaish belief, but it’s a common one in the idealism-choked cubicle farms which sprawl along 101.

Sheryl Sandberg: Liar, liar. So true. Engineers (and I) hate the lying biz types.

I just heard this phrase on a commercial “the next time you’re looking for a writing utencile look for innovative products from Bic.”

Really? I’m surprised that Innovation is such a big deal in the writing utencils industry. And by looking at Bic’s financials over the last few years I noticed that there was no r&d line in their expences… I wonder where all the money for innovation comes from?

Be careful marketeers, of you use a word too much for non-applicable reasons, it starts to lose all meaning and might even become a joke… Just like some other word we all know.

We’re not quite sure why Apple took down the application yet, we’ve received no communication from Apple thus far. NetShare did not violate any of the Developer or AppStore agreements. We’re hoping we’ll get some feedback from Apple tomorrow. Sorry to all the folks that couldn’t get it in time. We’ll do our best to try to get the application back onto the AppStore if at all possible. At the very least, I would hope Apple will allow it in countries where the provider does permit tethering.
