You also have to do that on a MacBook Pro running Chrome. I assume it's meant to be like that, since that's what you have to do in real life. It's called 'leading your shot'.

He must have hated that cord between the lamp and the wall. On the other hand it does somehow emphasize the emptiness of the room.

I've deleted all Facebook cookies from Chrome and Safari, and now I use Facebook exclusively with a Fluid.app SSB with private cookie storage. I can recommend this setup for any Mac users willing to spend $5 for Fluid. Alternatively you cou

Marco is definitely not French. Listen to a talk or podcast with him and that will be immediately apparent. ;-)

I couldn't figure out what the point of this page was... and then I remembered that I have the "Facebook Disconnect" extension installed. Doh.

The first thought I had was to be able to store personal data on a server and have secure access from any web browser. Basically a simplified version of 1PasswordAnywhere ( http://help.agilebits.com/1Password3/1passwordanywhere.html ). Upda

Totally agree. I also wish the tab text collapsing worked differently. Once you have over a certain number of tabs they become pretty much useless as you can't see any titles anymore. In contrast, TextMate keeps all the tab titles visible a

It'd be neat to have a overview of the different 'modules' in play and what they do (either in the README or a separate wiki page). Great stuff!

Not if they paid you a sufficiently large sum of money for the privilege of downloading your app. :-)

I'll grant you that Spotlight could be a bit quicker and smarter, but I nevertheless use it all the time. I was never a Quicksilver power user, but I've found Spotlight adequate enough that I've never bothered installing any alternatives (i

I'm in the office (with external monitor) half the time and working from home (without external monitor) the other half. It always takes me about a day to get used to the switch. But generally those 2 straight weeks of working on a bigger m

Am I missing something? Django isn't a server, it's a framework. Why was this included in the "benchmark"?

I'm also always shocked by how consistently good the audio is, especially since as far as I know they're just using Skype. Hard to believe considering my own experiences using Skype. I always seem to get lots of of audio glitches from the s

I've had a one-line bug-fix pull request rejected with the answer of something like "that's fixed in version 2". Well, I'm glad it's fixed in v2, but now I have to maintain my own fork until v2 is released and is stable enough for productio

Nice start, and some good comments/suggestions here for you to follow up on. My own suggestion: make sure to reference relevant tutorials in the 'Academy' section from within the reports. I made a couple of reports before really finding the

I'll just expand on what YooLi said. You can see both sides of the conversation, and I prefer how a conversation is treated as a single entity. If I archive a conversation, all messages in that conversation are archived. And if a new reply

I went ahead and bought it as I think it has a future and $10 is a good price point. But... I just can't use it yet because in the list view the sender is emphasized more than the subject. That's completely backwards for me as I rarely get

For me it's Apple Mail's lack of gmail-style "conversations". I just can't go back to conventional threading behavior.

Good point. I guess I more accurately meant it would be a PR nightmare for me... I just couldn't feed good about pissing off so many people, even if it did ultimately increase my sales.

People aren't mad because it costs $5, they're mad because she broke a promise. And if Apple had reneged on a promise that all Aperture 2 users would get Aperture 3 for free, you better believe it would get huge (negative) media coverage.

I might even understand if she would say something like "It's not worth it to me and I'm not going to do it... Sorry." But what baffles me is that she has continued to imply that she hasn't done anything wrong, made a point to say that peop

Considering the timing and changelog of this release, I'd guess that Allan was in the old code base to prepare it for the Mac App Store and in the process decided to fix a few more issues and make a release out of it. Just a guess.
