My gut says it is the wrong way around. I suspect that a user would buy the program for $40 because I want to save money and then don't buy the tutorials resulting in not being able to do that much and giving the app negative reviews becau

With the one exception being when developers are given the same horrible machine that the end users will have so it wont be a mad rush at the end to try to optimize it.

A data point to back this up: after reading high quality articles presented in a good fashion I have actually typed in and gone to http://www.theatlantic.com/ . This was a good article presented as if it was on aol.

After they remove the dvd drive the tallest port will be the ethernet port. Moving it to a external USB adaptor like they have already done on the air is logical.

"I've never actually tried to get it set up..." You could say that again. I bet you don't do any backups at all. Time machine has two options. The first is the location to backup and the second is directories to exclude. Ignoring cache

From the research I have done there are three major types of git server buyers: 1) We are so small that we don't even think twice and buy some private repos on GitHub. (i.e. no market there) 2) We are so big that we can't possibly even fath

What do people really think of this idea? Would you buy it? I have written a web interface for managing git repos called GitHaven (my personal home install is here: http://git.meyerhome.net:8080/ ). It has the usual goodies, private

Goes with how you define "fun". I went through a Hay Maze last year and realized half way through it that it was designed for "fun" which made it a lot easier. Wrote up the experience with some other notes for the curious. http://benjami

The biggest problem with iTerm was the fact that if you left it running it would constantly eat up 1-2% of your cpu and never go to idle. This really hurt the battery life on any laptop.

There is a google tech talk on the book which is really good for those curious to find out more.

For most of my projects I don't. Some of them have some rules listing test x depends upon y, but for the vast majority of my projects modify file X and only test X is run. This catches a huge non-insignificant amount of regressions. Real

Do you have a link to autotest? I run something similar. My ruby projects are all in git. I have a git pre-commit hook that when file X is modified before allowing a commit will run the test for X and only allow me to commit if the tests

I regularly see a movie I would be interested in seeing in the theaters and it to my netflix que. Just a few months later it appears at my door (or removed from my que when reviews turn out it was bad). At least for me they overestimate t

Tried playing a half dozen games. If this isn't a lesson in teaching users how to play your game I don't know what is. Before releasing a game you need to silently watch someone else try to play your game for the first time and take notes

When you open the lid of a MacBook mine have always been ready and running, there is no waiting for them to finish waking up like on Windows.

That is pretty much the solution I had for the first week before I switch to photo booth whos main advantages were: - I could compose a photo with objects and or just remember to be in frame and smile - I could easily delete a bad photo

As it happens all of the time I really don't forget. And if it takes a really horrible photo I can always just click the little X and delete it so no harm.

The was the core idea of getting it when the laptop opened. By having it always go off I had no effort (or choice) about getting my photo taken. And it paid off as I kept at it for years.

The first day or two it just took the photo in the background without me knowing about it. But too many of the photos were really bad (deleted most of them). I was moving or my head was cut off or out of frame. I was willing to trade the
