You still need to have a developer certificate set up and installed if you want to install any applications on your iPod through Xcode.

I think what everyone likes to point out re: MacPorts isn't MacPorts itself, but the software that it compiles, that needs work still.

But it then adds in x86_64 support, which brings the size back up. The smaller files are likely to be from not installing all the resources (localizations, drivers, etc) at once if not needed.

Why does this have to come built into the iPod? Whats wrong with a case that's retractable or has a dock? Why not have a pair of (sun)glasses with headphones built in or something along those lines? There's a lot more generic ways to go abo

Everyone's welcome to having their own ideal device. Unfortunately for you, the people at Cupertino who design the iPod's don't agree with your sentiments as to what would make the device better and haven't made retractable headphones. Migh

Google never said that their application was rejected: Apple did not approve the Google Voice application we submitted six weeks ago to the Apple App Store. (As pointed out by Gruber, over at http://daringfireball.net/2009/08/apples_fcc_

He had a legitimate point: this may not be appropriate for HN. (note: I'm not saying its not appropriate, thats not for me to decide). I, personally, just don't think the OP worded his post as well as it could have been. And FWIW, I have

Just so y'all know, Apple's already "fixed" (or "broken", depending on your POV) this way of enabling tethering for 3.1, http://www.macrumors.com/2009/07/15/iphone-3-1-beta-2-disabl...

I wouldn't disagree with you. I only added Twitter in as a point of reference, since its getting a lot of the hype these days.

If you look at http://siteanalytics.compete.com/facebook.com+myspace.com+tw... it might paint a different story: MySpace still has ~twice the visitors of Twitter, the current social network du jour. Even if you don't think much of Compete

Is it really a "leak" if its officially posted? Yay for sensationalism, by TorrentFreak, not the submitter though.

I don't know if that would be a good startup idea, but it would make for a nice side project to create on a weekend.

The first two points are the only ones that have to do with Twitter. The rest of the article reads as "How to win a Fourth Generation War", even though the author is trying to make the claim that we've moved onto the next, Fifth Generation

But the best way to figure out what you want to do is to actually do it. School does not help in this process. I would say that school does help. It exposes people to different ideas and topics (Wait, I can get paid to do something with m

Why do you assume that people know what they want to do when they're 13-14 years old? If you were to ask me what I wanted to do back then, I'd look at you funny and say "computers". Come to think of it, If you were to ask me what I want to

I don't see anything new in the behavior with the iPhone. Modifying hardware on a desktop is much easier then on a phone. That the hardware is proprietary isn't nearly as big of a deal here. Its all embedded, can't really be upgraded anyw

In Xcode, look under the "Design" Menubar item. http://edr.euro.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conce... looks like a decent introduction to the menu (note: I don't use this menu and only skimmed this doc, so no promises)

I don't like the idea that reviewers are doing their best to try and make my apps fail approval. That comes across to me as a developer that Apple doesn't want me to succeed. Just to present an alternate viewpoint, where app reviewers man

At the end of the article, before the comments, there are two emails. One from Apple to Khalid, and the other from Khalid's company to anyone who applies to be a developer there. I'm assuming that TC is in contact with Khalid, since they ha

My guess is that the App Store reviewers don't look at where the content is from , and instead look at what the content actually is . In this case, the content was OK. The content source was questionable. The reviewers at Apple decided to

If your "business" is dependent on repackaging otherwise free content — that you may not have the rights to — then, is it really a surprise that it gets shut down?

Decent, really? I thought it was a horrible article. It took seven points that have (for the most part) been overhashed on the internet in the past few days and summarized them in a single paragraph each, without bringing any new content or

I think that if you were to ask for attribution if anyone used or cited your work, most people would gladly do so. I have a feeling that the people that are likely to try and steal your work would do so, regardless of your copyright or lice
