White Friday Offer of Mobile App Construction


White Friday, is the name given to the first Friday after Pentecost
The day has a cultural significance in North West England, as the date on which the annual Whit Walks are traditionally held. By convention, the Whit Walks coincide with brass band contests, held in Saddleworth, Tameside and other outlying areas of Greater Manchester. Tradtionally, children and their supporters from Anglican school Sunday Schools 'walked' on Whit Monday, those from RC Sunday Schools on Whit Friday,[1] and there was an element of competition in general display, dresses and banners. Outside Manchester city centre, other Sunday Schools walked on Whit Sunday and in surrounding towns on other days during (or in the weeks following) Whit Week. This period marked the height of their year's activities for many local brass bands.

The Feast of Pentecost, which falls on the seventh Sunday after Easter, is an important feast day in the Christian Church. In the United Kingdom this was followed by a week of festivities called "Whitsuntide". As the population moved away from the countryside during the Industrial Revolution, the celebrations became less important in many areas, but in the manufacturing towns of North West England they were seen as a welcome break from work in the mills and factories. In an article in the Manchester Times in 1859 the London correspondent wrote:
Whitsuntide is not a great holiday week with us, as with you...indeed, we have now no amusements appropriate to this season. We used to have fairs but these degenerated into nuisances and were properly enough suppressed in the interests of public morality and decency...although a good number of well-to-do Londoners take advantage of the week for a cheap trip, the mass of the populace work and toil through the week, which you Lancashire people have so well and wisely reserved for recreation.[2] - The Manchester Times
Manchester traditionally held its annual horse races on Kersal Moor between the Wednesday and Saturday of Whit Week. The local Sunday School Superintendents worried about the gambling and drinking and "desiring to keep youth of both sexes from the demoralising recreations of the racecourse, took them to fields in the 
neighbourhood and held anniversary celebrations, tea parties etc. in the schools."[3]

Difference between virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality

Augmented reality and mixed reality are often used to refer to the same idea, however there are a few potential differences between the two depending on who you speak to. To some, it is semantics, while to companies like Microsoft, there is an important distinction between the two terms. The majority of mentions of augmented reality and mixed reality in the press right now refer to “mixed reality” as a synonym of “augmented reality”. Even experiences which could be under the umbrella of “mixed reality” are called “augmented reality” by the companies creating them. This is where things get confusing. “Mixed reality” is most commonly used by Microsoft to describe their HoloLens. The media often call it “augmented reality” to begin with, adding on in a rather forced sounding way — “or as Microsoft calls it, ‘mixed reality’”, followed by using the terms interchangeably throughout their articles. It is best explained by starting with the much easier definition of “virtual reality”: ...

What is the difference between UX and UI designer and web designer?

A bit cynical: UI design is the older term for UX design. New kids on the block disliked the ugly, annoying designs they were seeing, so they decided that, by renaming the discipline, they would produce designs less ugly and annoying. In the future, this will happen again, and UX (and the  letter X generally) will be disparaged as very old-fashioned and uncool. This will always happen because it is the nature of disciplines to rebrand themselves as newbies think old-timers were stupider than they were. But also it is true that by rebranding an activity, there is an opportunity to re-educate the world on why what you do matters. More serious: UX was an attempt to liberate users from the tyranny of cognitive psychologists, who themselves were trying to liberate users from the tyranny of programmers. UX has sometimes been successful in doing so, but other times it has only meant subjecting users to the tyranny of graphic designers. :) At the end of the day, what I want-...

Should I learn Front-End Web Development first, or Back-end web development?

From a practical standpoint, there are more backend resources and a longer history of backend languages and frameworks, whether you're talking about Ruby, PHP, Java or C. Picking the right backend language to learn will also teach you some basic computer science concepts that will be valuable. Database indices, data structures, OOP, and jobs/threads are much more prevalent on the backend, and they're important software constructs which are making their way onto the frontend (that is, Javascript and HTML5) where devs without the background will find themselves limited. The front end comes with its own set of challenges and nuances, but the skills there are a bit "softer", dealing more with rendering issues and design. I'll be honest and say that the  vast majority  of engineers, when moving to the front-end, don't bother with learning the design side of things, but at the same time the market isn't demanding the position as much, or  maybe we...
