They're everywhere, and a few people are probably going to ruin a lot of the current Lack of legislation around them by doing things like this. At the July 4th fireworks show we went to there were at least four buzzing around the entir

This to me is just further evidence that Apple has zero interest in improving anything on the App Store that does not directly affect their own profit or that of their key publishers. The simplest fix would be to prohibit reviews from devic

I actually have had one user take me seriously with that one. It's been a while, but I believe I also attributed her problem to the phase of the moon as well.

Maybe gp is including blog posts as well? Marco Arment ventures into other political topics to some degree. I don't think I've ever heard John Siracusa or Casey Liss hit on anything significantly political other than women in tech

My wife started having problems eating wheat-based products a couple years ago, primarily gastrointestinal. Cutting it out of her diet eliminated those problems, but there's also been an additional surprise way in how to avoid the symp

I definitely agree with this. A previous employer of mine had a policy of never matching any competing offers -- you stuck with what you had or took the offer. Combined with very infrequent raises this led to a fairly low morale. I stuck ar

I used to work at a hotel that ran a Nomadix gateway appliance to get around guests having static IPs configured from their office environments. Without it we were sure to get a call about them being unable to connect. One year the hotel pu

I tend to do the opposite. If I find something on the MAS, I usually check for a direct purchase so that the developer gets that additional 30%, I'm eligible for upgrade pricing, and I don't have to wait a week for bug fix updates

I've never fully embraced Apple's view of flat design for that reason. I feel buttons should resemble something that looks like it can be tapped on, and that that is not against the current aesthetic of iOS (e.g., http:/&#x2

Here are some random tips I can think of off the top of my head: - Shooting at a slight downward angle has a slendering effect. The opposite applies to shooting at an upward angle. - Never face the camera straight on. You'll look large

Can you get a better photo? A lot gets pre-judged on that, and the one you have posted at the top is both poorly lit and a little cool on the white balance. Even something as simple as waiting until an overcast day would significantly even

I haven't even used half of what Couchbase does, but it's been a great replacement for Core Data for me. I've very much loved not having to deal with schema migrations that historically have been very tedious with Core Data.

It's not automatically integrated. I just transpose as needed from my help desk system into it as I doubt I'd find it as useful if the entries were not in my own terminology.

I feel the same applies to physical media releases too. Trying to watch a DVD is an absolutely miserable experience with menus and restricted actions. It's for this reason that I have the majority of the content I own ripped and stored

It's a pretty standard way of counting for outdoorsy stuff in my experience. Most hiking routes will quote the total elevation gain, skiers and snowboarders track downhill vertical, and so on.

I'm not an electrician but have installed around 10 million feet of low voltage wire under one in a previous job. Plenum cabling is typically only required when the cabling is in a space open to the air (e.g., a t-bar grid ceiling with

You are correct. I was thinking of this rule that has since been removed: 11.13 Apps can read or play approved content (magazines, newspapers, books, audio, music, video) that is sold outside of the app, for which Apple will not receive any

I'm not familiar with the rule number offhand, but I'm reasonably certain they require you to have the same list price in both places.

I'm a bit different in that a significant part of my income is from professional photography. Here's how I'm organized: Each year has a folder: YYYY. Inside that folder is an Aperture library per category (e.g., Weddings, Por

Masonry works great! I've used it in every project since discovering it. I highly doubt I'd be using Autolayout without it or something similar.

I can crash my entire iPad every time I try to start a slideshow while connected via AirPlay in one of my apps (Portfolio). From the technical side of things all it does is load a full resolution image into a CALayer instance and fade it in

Not at all. We have about 4 TB of photos. I signed up for Backblaze last August to get an online backup of just the past few years and it's still ~400 GB from finishing.

The one place I find that useful is for blog posts. I like having the ability to apply the blog's CSS to the markdown source before posting to make sure it looks right.
