If you like baroque music, I can't help but plug my own New York City-based ensemble (named after Bach himself), the Sebastians: https://www.sebastians.org I'm the group's harpsich…

Thanks for sharing! I've used Kimai [ https://github.com/kimai/kimai ] for a while, which offers similar functionality. Timestrap is MUCH nicer to look at, though the feature I use…

He says he got a law degree (J.D.) and actually links to the Columbia class of 2009 where he is listed. So that's a "professional doctorate," definitely greater than a masters.

I bought it too (and congrats, it's a great start!), but probably won't use it until you add multiple-images-on-multiple-monitors.

"Just press start" or "Only one button between you and your workout" or "One button to a better you" (okay, not that one). I'm not any good at this, but I like the idea behind your…

It would be great if you said this somewhere prominently before needing to sign up for an account. Once I saw the "refund" section near the top of the Terms and Conditions, I close…

FYI, I went to check out your case (which looks cool!) and you have a dead YouTube link on your iPhone page [1]. ("This video is no longer available because the uploader has closed…

Possibly... though Activity Monitor (or top) doesn't show anything suspicious. If I stop audio from playing, iTunes drops to about 4% CPU. (And mdworker doesn't appear to be workin…

New version seems faster in some respects, but at least ridiculously slow in another: searching with the Column Browser open. I have a huge library--~63000 songs; I'm a musician--a…

The switch on the side of the phone was just a "silencer," without any fine-grained control. "Do Not Disturb" is a more intelligent kind of silencer -- it silences emails, texts, a…

I was actually thrilled that for transit directions in NYC, Maps just gave me a button to the Embark app, which won the MTA App Quest for best subway navigation in the city. It has…

I just don't use full screen mode. (I've got 4 monitors.) I assume that's what others do. Though there are some niceties to the dedicated mode, I figure that it's mostly important …

No, that's the problem here: I had definitely hidden my @facebook email address (setting it to be visible to only me) when it was first created. After a number of people posted thi…

I don't think we're talking about a "slightly better experience" -- this is the difference between having 20 apps and 40 apps (for example). Space is at a premium on these devices.…

That's what I thought, but see marchdown's comment later on this page -- he says: "Apple prohibits developers to store stuff that can be regenerated or re-downloaded. So, arguably,…

Is there a source for this? By definition, isn't nearly everything we have on our devices capable of being regenerated or re-downloaded? This is clearly the crux of the problem -- …

I would bet Apple's never going to make this sort of a choice obvious to the user -- it goes against the "just working" (whether or not it works the way you want) they're currently…
