IE 9 and 10 have been good to me. I just hope we keep a good balance of browsers going forward.

I really wish there was an Android version, or some way for a thrid-party app to sync with Things on the Mac. Now I have to use a note taking app on my Android phone and tablet, then manually copy them into Things when I get back to my comp

Churches are an amazing way to meet people. When I moved abroad for a while I went to a Sunday service, immediately got introduced to a few people who I ended up becoming good friends with. I didn’t make any friends outside of church and wo

The point is that UI elements on the iPad are now slightly bigger than on the iPhone because of the lower DPI (ignoring the retina screen). Pixel-wise, UI elements are the same size between the iPad and the iPhone. Shrinking the iPad to 7.8

This: #if (TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR) takes care of that already, it won’t be in an App Store build. Another thing to note is that the inspector will use take the first webview in your application. There’s a common trick of creating

I’m actually really liking the new ICS-style action bar dropdown, like used in the Gmail and calendar apps. Seems to do roughly the same in a more consistent manner.

A month ago, Kyle Sluder proposed a namespacing system for Objective-C[1]. There has been a lively discussion both in the comments and on the objc-language mailing list[2]. 1: http://www.optshiftk.com/2012/04/draft-proposal-for-namespac...

“Less aggressive synonyms” Fantastic! That’s one of the things that has been bothering me on Google lately.

I think that Objective-C’s pros, like they way message passing can be used for UI event handling, come to life only with a framework that makes good use of the language’s strengths. People drawn to the language would be likely to stick with

There’s a redstone resource, which you can lay down as wires. These behave like electronic circuits. There are some special blocks like redstone torches and repeaters. Some other blocks can be powered or triggered by redstone, for example p

Even worse is when you describe your game by the technology it sues. This is something that tends to happen a lot in the open source world: “X is an SDL/Python platformer for Linux, Window$, Darwin and OS/2 licensed under the GPL (version 3

Does any iOS device require one at all? The iPhone works fine without data and I’ve been without a data plan on a few occasions.

In the Netherlands, making a copy of copyrighted material is legal for personal use. There’s a levy on blank media such as DVD-Rs which is shared between copyright holders.

When the Pirate Bay was blocked in the Netherlands, ISPs had to blacklist not only a list of domain names but also IP addresses.

What I’m wondering is whether it’s not yet possible to have a distributed, decentralised torrent database. You could already put up a copy of the database as a torrent and distribute the magnet link, but you’d need some method for efficient

I’m seriously considering taking half a year off to work on several of these classes, supported by a part time job. There’s just so much in there that we never properly treated at uni (bachelor level).

It looks like Dark Sky takes this data and uses it to predict up to an hour ahead. It may not be revolutionary but at a fair price it could be a nice to have.

In the first segment, why is the focus on his supposed irresponsibility of posting that joke to Facebook, instead of the braindead legislation that allowed this silliness to end up in court?

From what I remember, tablets before the iPad looked rather different[1]. The full glass/plastic front hadn’t really been tried. Early [Apple tablet mockups[1][2] based on the iPod touch, though close, lacked the thick black border and the
