Maybe FB, but not Apple. It's just not the right fit for Apple.

Ok, now this is just ridiculous. Entrance into the walled garden is only a couple of hundred for a used Mac mini on eBay plus the dev fee. If you can't afford that, you probably can't afford all the money you're going to lose

I have not met anyone in tech or not who is excited about google glass. I think many of us have gadget fatigue after so long and so much new stuff all the time. As an early adopter for so long, it means nothing I have ever really works beca

I used Freehand when it was made by Aldus. Back then, Deneba Canvas was pretty good too.

I'm so happy to see that this article is old. There is no reason to continue the ridiculous editor wars. emacs and vi have really held back innovation imho with their slavish devotion to the tty paradigm. this problem is that they are good

very clever. this ambiguity shows how difficult it is for creative students and how important it is to be graded on the process as well as the conclusion. The process would show your divergent thinking and why you arrived at a different ans

What's nonsense is buying visions instead of products. Just because glass has what seems like easily fixed problems doesn't mean it will ever - or anything like it - will be a viable product. We do not know it will be awesome if executed pr

I made up and used something similar to JSON in 1996. It's not difficult to think up if you're trying to find the simplest possible text-based hierarchical data format. There were a lot of variations on this idea.

So what other programs do you use that have a balance parens command? or shift text left or right? Beyond the basic movements, all your "interesting" shortcuts are specific to your text editor anyway. Unless you're using emacs on a Mac, in

Here's a situation where a car analogy might actually be helpful. There's the kind of setting where you have to open the hood to mess with it. Then there's the settings available to the driver on the dashboard. Make the difference between t

The free-range and grass-fed stuff is far too nuanced (and expensive) by itself to put an end to or even reduce the rivers of blood and mountains of skulls that are the output of industrial factory farms. What will stop it? environmental le

I use a lot of those same apps, and I agree that they work. But they work the same way on a laptop. The unique properties of the tablet format can't really be taken advantage of with those apps. I do have an issue with the way files are han

I agree and that's what is so terrible. Paper isn't pro or non-pro. You can go but expensive brushes and paint, or buy cheap stuff, or whatever you want. There are no limitations in the physical world. But in the digital world, you have sev

You know... I want a large format iOS device... but as a pro user the very last thing I want is a sandboxed jailhouse. Apple is abandoning pro users across the board. iOS apps are essentially toys because of the limitations of iOS and the a

Enlighten us. I have read the feature list over the years and don't see anything that really stands out enough.

I can understand not wanting to be involved. but unless you're building something designed for war or violence, you are not participating.

Well many people don't know what that great thing is, and never find it. Many feel they ought to want to do great things even if they don't really (if they could let themselves be free to think about it) and so are caught up in the game a

And the majority of people aren't motivated enough either way to comment, so we listen to the vocal minority with extreme views. Like everywhere in life.

It is a great post. But let's not fall into the trap of "honest, open sharing" is better than pretending, that pretending is bad, or that either is better than not sharing at all. Lots of people make their lives better by pretending enough

Style over substance. Mixing colors would be a neat addition if the rest of the app was geared toward actual creative work. Drawing is laggy, there's no zoom, the UI enforces landscape mode, you can't select your own drawing order or see mo

Enough of them do. When OS X 10.0 was released I went to a powerbook users group install party and installed that sucker on my graphite iBook DV. I still have my Public Beta disc.
