Agreed that if there was a modern WebObjects it should support GCD, and be at least available on Linux too. WebObjects back in the days was running on 4 different platforms: OpenStep, Windows NT, Solaris and HP-UX. so clearly the runtime wa

If I was to develop some web framework in Objective-C I will at least try to mimic the WebObjects framework which has some great concept behind it. The main grief against WebObjects that should be avoided is that the framework layer to acce

I forgot to mention that a few big corporation like Apple, Google and a few others use their enterprise solution (aka CrashPlan backup solution hosted directly in house by the IT group)... So they definitely did strike some deals with big n

I hope they will still be there... They are not just a random company. I have been using it at my previous work company (strongly suggested by our IT group) and have been really happy with it to the point that 2 years ago I purchased for t

Quite cool... But if this is generated by the text to speech engine from OS X, then I am afraid it is going beyond the license that come up with OS X. I remember reading through that license and it was clearly stated that using the OS X TTS

Yes you are correct about that... It happened to me once on an old domain and I was able to get it back in the following week after expiration but I don't recall seeing a parked page during that period of time. Doing a quick Whois for nodej

I have almost the same setup as you, except for the mail system: I am just using either GMail or iCloud server for that. TimeMachine and CrashPlan work really well and do their job totally in background without any visible impact on my work

Not that I am aware but I did not look recently. The 2 other services that I have checked are Urban Airship and last I checked they did not have it (they have the concept of tags which is similar to Parse's channel). The other one I checked

This is a great addition to Parse.com, for one of my app I had to implement my own tracking of token, so I could do push notification based on some query criteria. Looks like I will be able to migrate fully to Parse.com now, and not have to
