Can you not use Powerbox to allow the app to write to user-chosen folders outside of the app sandbox container? Or maybe that's the entitlement you mean and Apple wouldn't grant it? Anyway, cool app. Nice work and nice writeup! h

This is getting downvoted and piled-on but it doesn't seem to me like an unreasonable response to a comment that starts "Meditation and mindfullness are free. You really don’t need an app." and then goes on to recommend a boo

I'm not sure what you mean - what's the relevance of a kernel thread (or threads in general) here?

You can't fork() in App Store apps. Which is why all of the commands on the linked Terminal app are built-ins. So a bash-like of sorts could be made to work, but it would be very different and quite limited.

I… wouldn't. I'm so much faster doing text operations on a Mac, it's not even close. A pointing device is just so much more quick/precise for me than fingers.

I feel like you’re saying that’s plenty but I’d need a lot more context to know how reasonable that is for a country/economy the size of the USA.

Last I’d heard (it’s been a while) there was significant interest in running z/OS and the like on emulators, usually on Intel. I’d be interested to know how much of that goes on these days. Seems sensible (to ignorant me, at least) tha

There's also the aspect of the separate stores. If a developer wants to, they can today offer a single purchase that gives you an app that works on iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches, and Apple TV — but not Macs.

I adore @sailorhg's ( https://twitter.com/sailorhg ) work on femme techy stuff. Her zines aren't the best way for me to learn and her clothes definitely aren't for me! — but they certainly are for some people

That second one is interesting, considering how many of their games/marketing materials/etc are full of references to their history.

My point is that racism is far more than discrete instances of people yelling racial slurs. The racism that affects black people in the USA is perhaps mostly not that sort of racism (though if I were black, I'd surely have many mor

Looking for personally-seen day-to-day anecdotes, though often well-intentioned, is where a lot of this discussion ends up going wrong, imo, and it leads to people coming away with the idea that racism in the USA is a mostly "past&quot

It doesn't exactly take a lot of trying to find racism/oppression toward black Americans in most situations.

Yeah, the day after they put out the initial update (17B1002), they put out a second update (17B1003) that fixed the file sharing issue caused by the first one.

They may have even had a test case that entered "root" and no password and hit OK once , but that wouldn't have caught it. What if you'd had to hit "OK" forty-one times to trigger the bug? It's deeply uns

As someone who tries to do risk analysis, the prospect of sticking with human drivers because of fear of software bugs (which inevitably will kill, just in much smaller numbers) terrifies me.

As author Julia Ioffe notes on Twitter, the story has now been updated to note that @realDonaldTrump tweeted about the release of Podesta's emails 15 minutes after @Wikileaks wrote to @DonaldJTrumpJr about it. https://twitte

If you can send a text reliably from your pocket (something I've never even heard of anybody attempting), you can unlock it with the 6-digit passcode reliably.

Also the lack of a native Right Click! Every pointing device they've made for well over a decade has had multiple clicks.
