   Just think... soon they will make boats out of other sustainable power sources. Maybe like wind or something else crazy like that.

   Ever had an upstream gitsubmodule move or shut down? I can't go back 6 months in my SCM and rebuild exactly what I had because the repo is gone now. This is bad and against the concept of having an SCM in the first place. There is a horribl

   I've just got to say that James is great guy. I run into him constantly (usually at hackathons in the bay area). Smart guy.

   Subtree > Submodule in so many ways. Git submodule is a mess and now a legacy of git. I've been been using subtree in a fork of Git personally but can't (safely) use it at work with everyone else (still use submodules there). This is go

   Part of me is happy. Apple pushed MacRuby before Lion and effectively killed it internally going forward after the ARC announcement. MacRuby relies on the GC capability of Objective-C which is incompatible with their new ARC baby. Just a fe

   It did actually uncover something. A huge leak in chrome for me. While this is running Chrome memory usage just climbs and climbs. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/586869/Screenshots/chrome%20leak.png

   I just dug into and can confirm. MIME is returned as text/html and browser reads it as such. still very clever. It's actually kind of a good test of browser compliance in a sick way.

    It worked the first time in chrome. Crashed it the second time. Very clever. The blackhat-spidy-sense in me is getting a tingle. XSS injection if a PNG could used to execute javascript possibly.

    My license plate when I live in Texas was "NULL". I never got a ticket when running the toll booth and the camera OCR'd my license plate.

    I'm part of the west coast Cocoa/iOS community and only about ~10% of got a ticket (I work on Growl). Prominent devs from Square, Instagram, and other startups that I know didn't get a ticket that all have been going since 2006.

    I don't know about that yet. Mobile payments is a hot category. While some are looking at it from the perspective of using your cell phone to make purchases, square is looking at it in the reverse. It's probably the best positioned POS syst

    I just sent ARS a ping with iOS 6.1 at 8192x6144 resolution. Lets see if they write another article.

    Neat. Opened code and seen this which makes me feel icky as an iOS Dev: // getters, because obj-c is weird - (int) getTileTypeX:(int)x andY:(int)y { Still great on them for being open.

    Hey Danielle!! Maybe down the road here soon, but right now I'm focused on making sure SeatMe is a huge and successful. (PS.. Still need to talk to you about my plan to integrate Growl and Twilio soon though.)

    Apple avoids the Vista like "ask for permission" on access design like android by requiring you to justify your needs to the app reviewer as an app developer. Not having an untrusted source of apps that can install on the device that is all

    This sums up my attempt doing my own startup with my cofounder last year perfectly. We did our YC interview and got a reality check. Did about half these things.

    The biggest issue with adding those op code is the lack of space for every op code to support between every type IIRC. every new type exponentially increases the number of operations. Being that we can only 255 op code in Java, it causes a
