This week we talk about the non-gaming applications of VR, Baz has pre-ordered Playstation VR. We discuss the latest in Hackintoshs… and why we never built one. Dave has discovered NativeScript: use HTML, CSS and Javascript to make app, has he gone to the dark side? Thomas tell us of his experiences as a tech recruiter, we discuss the programming interview, the “kitchen sink” job spec, why developers don’t negotiate their salaries, what are salaries like at the moment and different approaches to tech recruitment.
