Don't forget to make sure it only works on 48 core supercomputers equipped with 8 TB of RAM. The only problem here (and everywhere) is shitty developers thinking that being in 2014 is an acceptable excuse for extremely shoddy work. No

Upgrading from Rails 3.2 to Rails 4.0 takes very little time, assuming the gems you depend on are compatible (which they should be, by now, or you might want to look for replacement gems..)

Pretty sure that by "Port Gatekeeper to iOS" he's talking about giving the users the ability to choose whether or not to run signed (or unsigned) code that doesn't come from the AppStore, exactly like you have on the Mac

For non-destructive editing, the new Acorn4 beats the crap out of Adobe products. Pile on layer styles/effects, re-order them and re-parameterize them on the fly with live preview. Also you can have the same effect multiple times. For
