Thanks for posting that, I wasn't aware that they were using XPC for the Mail sheet, etc. Hopefully we'll see some neat things next year.

I found myself strongly agreeing with him about fill() specifically. Fill what? It's a verb that performs no action, and is really shorthand for setFillColor, which sets invisible global state. It's not at all obvious from the name what

I think it refers to the use of tags, which allow you to register tag handlers to add custom semantics to whatever data structure follows the tag.

Android also lacked SVG support until 3.2. The justification I read was that they deliberately disabled it from their webkit build to save 1MB in the compiled binary. Sad, especially since pre-ICS phones are by far the most prevalent.

Did the author give you the impression that he was "too lazy to read the manual?" I got almost the exact opposite impression, that he had read the documentation to the point of exhaustion and found it severely lacking.

Not quite. You can get a free certificate for non-appstore apps. Apps signed with the free cert aren't reviewed or endorsed by Apple, but they can revoke the certificate after the fact if they find that you've been publishing malicious ap

Nope. The assets are part of the app bundle, which can't be modified. Doing so would break the code signature (DRM).

This is true, but I wouldn't bat an eye at the phrase "post-mainframe era," though of course there are still plenty of mainframes doing useful work.

If you're willing/able to jailbreak your iPad, check out Incarcerapp - it lets you optionally disable the home button, multitasking, touch events, etc. It's triggered by an Activator action (by default, clicking volume up, then down). You c

That is annoying, but you don't have to fully switch to the space containing the window. In mission control, you can three-finger swipe through your spaces to get to the expose view for the space that has the app you want, then drag it to

The default is the middle one - no unsigned apps, but they don't have to come from the App Store. Apple is going to start offering "Gatekeeper" certificates for non-App Store developers. The idea being that they can revoke a certificate i

I really enjoy your app; nice work! One thing that would greatly improve it for me is a button to switch between the article view and the comments. I usually want to read the comments directly after reading an article, and it's a bit anno

The session validation data expires after a few hours, and at least one of the other identifiers is subject to being changed by the server. As of now there's no practical way to share your authorization info.

I've been trying to figure this out too... I think the VPN is the only way to get it working over 3g, as there's no way to override the DNS on the cell connection. Thanks for that idea, VPN hadn't occurred to me! I'm going to give it a sh

You and the poster you're replying to both seem to need to put female ejaculation in quotes, presumably to imply that it's some nonsense that either doesn't exist, or doesn't merit discussing. The fact that so many people reach adulthood w

I think that the iPad comparisons are due to the content available (movies, tv, music) and especially the App Store. If you want to do anything with the Nook Color that's not included in the tin you need to root it. The kindle browser sou

Thanks for that link and summary. I'm glad there's still an option to buy the non-ad supported models; I was afraid they'd phase them out. Maybe they'll even go crazy and let me use my own screensaver images without jailbreaking!

I think they're valid in calling the deal "secret," as the app-buying public at large has no idea these deals are taking place. The developer knows they're getting nothing, but everyone downloading the free app is harboring illusions that
