This article reads like an april fools joke. In one code block, he shows the most complex, incomprehensible haskell code (with special characters sprinkled in all over the place), then the next paragraph he confidently explains how it's so

I'm pretty happy with my high deductible plan. I'm guessing this bill will put the kibosh on that, though I'm not totally sure. I'll add reading the 1,900 page bill to my todo list.

Be careful with this. After using this plugin for most of the day, I found it broke Firebug's mouse selection tool. Disabling the plugin fixed it. Cool idea.. but Firebug's code is not stable to begin with and adding hacks like this will on

Yes, it's just not worth it to be of "those" people. Whatever benefits it gets, its just hard to take someone seriously when their sitting on a giant inflatable fucking ball.

Changes hugely appreciated. Firefox on mac has become a pig. But I keep using it because of firebug (which has tons of features still lacking in web inspector). These changes bring things closer, but not quite enough. We need an "edit" butt

Nevermind, its still slow as molasses. However... it no longer locks up my mac. This is probably something to be celebrated. I don't mind if windows is slow (for IE7 testing), but don't mess with my mac speed.

Version 3.0 seems light years better than 2.0. Doesn't seem to lock up my mac instance any longer while booting.

I'm excited about this app. It's barely usable (doesn't respect textmate's file ignore patterns, no replace, and it doesn't report progress very well). But, it's fast, and hopefully it continues progress to make things a bit cleaner. Howeve

This is a gimped google voice number. Seems like its still better to switch to full service (still requires changing your numbers).

Benchmarks. Show themselves significantly faster and more configurable (finely tuned via software) and people will pay.

Looking forward to some benchmarks. If its fast enough, this'll make me switch over to EC2.

Gruber's logic is probably faulty. If there were an Apple netbook/table, people wouldn't stop buying normal apple laptops. They'd buy these in addition, and in much greater numbers. Apple has 10% marketshare. If they put out smaller, lower

5gb was just about enough 10 years. Different times, different size requirements. People do more with computers nowdays.

Smart move. I got bit last Dec with my 80gb Intel X25m completely crapping out on me. The drive stopped being recognized and despite a week of troubleshooting, and trying to restore, it was completely lost. However, the next drive I bought

Totally agreed. Bundler is finally the solution to some of the RubyGem failings over the years. RubyGems has been friggin awesome, and one of the best best aspects of the Ruby environment, however the dependency management was not its stron

If you're serious about having decent tool for mocking up websites, I'd highly recommend the latest OmniGraffle Pro, and the Konigi stencil set: http://konigi.com/tools/omnigraffle-wireframe-stencils It's expensive, but wasted time is als

Meh... it's against the Cougars. Worst team in the Pac-10... I'd be surprised if anyone shows up ;-)

Maybe people react differently to it, but git has been my #1 productivity booster that I can remember. Combined with github, it's revolutionized the way open source projects work.

Well, Apple doesn't only write Objective-C. I'd bet a majority of the code they write is plain C and C++ for internal OSX stuff. And some of their major projects are still Carbon (C++) (though they are trying to port to Cocoa).
262.
by jpcx01 17y ago
Thats a good point. The switch from Objective-C to Java in WebObjects destroyed it. Maybe it would have died anyways, but it was definitely the final nail in the coffin as all the best WebObjects developers stuck with version 4.5 instead of

Holding out great hope! Still learning Objective-C and Cocoa for iPhone development, however as soon as MacRuby surfaces, I'll be switching to it in a heartbeat :-)

I'll never understand why big companies buy out an open source project when the chances are it'll just stall and loose all credibility. Who gained from that transaction, aside from the team who got their cash windfall and ran.

SproutCore is also gearing up for 1.0 release soon. Some really good choices nowdays for javascript based windowing apps.
