I plan to do a new release soon, after palmos - I build a cross platform development library, just like you mentioned called SHARK - a precursor to other dev kits like unity, marmalade and heck, even SDL!? I ported it to over 14 platforms.. even the Sony PSP ;)

I currently focus on IoT - specifically security.

www.riotsecure.se

binaries are there for people who still have devices that work! (notice - i even posted full registered (unlocked) binaries so no registration system).
as for emulators? we always had POSE and the PalmSim that was part of the SDK's.. there is also this:

https://cloudpilot-emu.github....

most of the PalmOS libraries are pretty well abstracted.. heck; most of the graphics routined i actually rewrote for the VTech Helio - which is the vtos-gfx/ repository which pretty much uses a pointer to the display which is effectively a framebuffer graphics approach. it would be super easy to port. soon i will release SHARK; our cross platform engine that we built just after the palm os stuff - and that has been ported to iOS, android and a slew of other platforms.

i'm now bouncing back and forth between Stockholm (Sweden) and Margaret River (Australia) and my main focus these days is security within the internet of things space :P i plan to release more source code; this is only the tip of the ice berg - yes, there are dependencies on operating system level libraries (Palm, Sony, Handera); but - these are all part of their SDK's, which i do not have permission to release. you'll find our code is pretty well documented (rare).. haha.. i just didn't want this stuff to be lost over time, felt it was better archived for the world somewhere.

i surely hope they are not dependent on third party services like google maps as part of the landing process.. they would need to install an infrastructure of sensors, cameras and network communication channels to obtain enough information about the environment as if they were actually there.. otherwise; we'll see planes hit a tree or newly built building that may not be available yet on google maps.

and the young and dumb stayed around?

i've been offered positions at google over the years, wasted time with their bullshit interviews and even turned them down a few times - as we get older; we are more inclined to start our own businesses and be entrepreneurs.. it is not a shock that the younger generation of engineers want to work at a company like Google. what they need here is to also bring in relevant data around startups; how many people actually left Google to start their own thing?

I put an easter egg in Caveman (http://mobile1up.com/caveman/) where every day there is a unique unlock code that actually lets you play the first seven levels of Lemmings - complete with music, artwork and sound effects.. it changes on a daily basis - i used to post the unlock codes occasionally on twitter ... if anyone ever reported it to SCEE; they would have a hard time reproducing it, the code wouldn't work by the time they tried it.

sounds like a PR campaign over something that will be effective.. if you look at any footage of ISIS and these extremists; they are a tad behind when it comes to technology - the social networks should be the one shutting down any propoganda efforts from these guys.. smells like "anonymous" is just riding on the publicity behind these tragic events to get noticed.

be thankful he isn't cursing them in finnish! :) now thats a mean language. english is so lame in comparison :)

... not like the future "beings" of this planet are going to be able to figure out how to read the damn thing - we've all see planet of the apes and how inferior those beings were.. good use to document everything if it is just a hologram on a piece of rock..

... because real programmers use C :)

nothing like doing some polymorphism and inheritance via casting of pointers! :) - good C code can destroy even the best written C++ code if it is done right. unfortunately (and i know this will mod me down); the kids of today just dont get how vital C code was back in the day. they want to do everything in a "higher" level language that is supposedly more cross platform. C is the only true cross platform language out there.
