Winer writes "Back then Google cared a little about what I thought." Suggesting that today they don't. Why? Perhaps because trivialities like a button on the Google toolbar were made to occupy the time of someone whose hourly value would ev

I know what you're saying, but I dismiss it for two reasons: First, if Winer wants to get link-baity by piggybacking someone in the news, let's give some scrutiny to the relevance of that case. This is pretty silly-sounding stuff and I'm in

So Dave Winer gets sanctimonious about a tiny change to a small side-product of Google's and he extrapolates many conclusions based on Mayer's entirely natural eye rolling. As a meta comment, Winer is a unfortunate last name for this gentle

I wasn't aware it was random – I thought some communication/negotiation was required. How advanced is this technology?

You know, I've been turning it over in my head for while. I'm of a similar mind. Mason may know a whole lot – but he commands none of the respect I feel for the other names associated with YC. He's an antibrand. Maybe someone can someday

The need for memory imposes an upper bound on application life. Eventually Safari or a game will require the app close itself.

Can you explain how you're certain that Tim Cook doesn't fit within the exceptions? You speak in the abstract, but this is a real case.

Regardless of how you feel about the situation, the TechCrunch writer's dismissiveness reflects poorly on the publication.

> Women aren't frail damsels that need your condescending efforts, or need your overly protective assumptions... On its own, that does indeed seem reasonable, even if dubiously relevant. But where does the "self-victimization" come in?

So, Github unveiled a diversity initiative. Which would appear to be their prerogative... Can you help me connect the dots between that and people making victims out of themselves?

Can you expand more on "self-victimizing," what you think that is, and how it expresses itself?

I was a great fan of Twitter for Mac, but their stewardship of it was terrible. It was left in a prolonged state of abandonware, not even supporting Twitter's new picture hosting service for over a year after it was available. So no matter

That's the problem cited, though. Hacker News, as a community, has developed a comical, pathological aversion to any sort of agreement. Every nit must be picked – otherwise the discussion fails to be "intelligent."

As long as we're being meta... You responded with 32 words to a 37 word post so that you could quibble about a single word, or 3% of that post. While preaching on the righteous subject of "intelligent discussion," no less. So if we're going

I'm often frustrated at folks who take the wrong lesson from Steve Jobs. As this piece describes, they look at the dude and take away that they should be jerks because that's how things get done. And that's a terrible lesson. In my read, as

Here's the haphazard way I'm using this stuff these days: 1. Non-view controller views. These typically go in nibs. Custom tableview cells, tableview headers used across multiple views, custom buttons, nibs are all fine for this. (And the U

Oh yeah – you should totally understand how the magic works. But there's an odd strain of fear against IB, so it bears mentioning.

I never actually used VB so maybe I'm talking out of my ass but... Storyboards sound like an attempt to do what you're describing. You can throw together a bunch of views without writing any code at all, then string them together so that a

Yeah, Storyboards are still in their awkward phase. That's totally fair. And I don't yet trust them for running view navigation. But you know what they're awesome for? Static table views . If you want to build a grouped table view as login

So, a word of advice to new folks trying out iOS land: Interface Builder is most emphatically your friend. The compile/debug cycle in iOS is sufficiently lengthy that laying out views programmatically gets very tedious very fast. Besides re
