I've been waiting to watch some of the developer videos for a while. I'm glad they are back. Now there's only Xcode Automatic Configuration, Member Center, Program Enrollment and Renewals, and Technical Support to go.

Harder since you need to install unpack (it's not installed by default on many installations). Also, "tar xf" has literally the same number of characters, so no hard at all.

I agree with you. I just want to point out that these days `tar xf` works for both .zip and .bz2 files (it recognizes the file type automatically). AFAIK it works with both GNU and BSD tar.

Like many people, if I'm thinking and designing I prefer to have no music. If I'm doing these things in a noisy environment I may listen to some rain recordings such as [1]. When I'm coding I mainly listen to classical music. The problem is

Apollo is just fantastic. This is another video of Apollo demonstrating his skills: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v... I'm fascinated of how he "dances" around the victims and uses peoples own momentum.
