Yeah, just poking around curious as to how they were implementing the animation.

Still seems to be based on SproutCore. You can see the list of acknowledgements at the top of one of iWork's source files ( https://beta.icloud.com/applications/iw/1ABeta108/editor…

Going to https://beta.icloud.com/?crazyAwesome does give you a similar (exaggerated) effect you can play around with using your cursor.

Interesting, I never really dug too deep into it, aside from making a couple of changes and standard entitlement stuff for applications. application.sb looks like a complete nightm…

All the sandbox entitlement files are written in that scheme-like syntax, but it's limited to that in OS X as far as I've seen.

> For example, what is so bad about this? http://skeu.it/image/24908403424 Putting in a ruled notebook texture and not lining up the text makes it look a little silly.

True, learning how to build things from source yourself is definitely useful, I probably wouldn't be using Homebrew if I wasn't comfortable with that first. It's definitely advanta…

Or, if you have Homebrew ( http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/ ) installed: brew install tree

Yeah, unfortunately the others are a bigger pain, main reason why I use PPTP myself.

It should be noted that PPTP does have some serious vulnerabilities ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-to-Point_Tunneling_Protoc... ) and should probably be avoided if security i…

Best/most secure option for tunnelling traffic through to your VPS? SSH is definitely secure enough for that, provided you have a strong password or even better key-based authentic…

Ah, yeah I guess HDR would do it, slanted comparison nonetheless.

The comparisons do make you wonder if they fiddled with the lighting artificially though, some of the differences are surprisingly drastic.

They are as noted prototype devices – with no announced release date – so it's completely in the realm of possibility that the camera simply isn't ready yet. Of course that doesn't…

Not using all the available new semantic markup is a little different than having a site that doesn't rely on Flash to serve audio.

Do you mean 2ch/2channel instead of 2chan/Futaba? They have similar names but are completely different sites.

I'm sure this is about trying to improve site performance, and charging for it would inevitably cause everyone to continue scraping the HTML, thus defeating the point.

There are actually plenty of third party archives for 4chan boards, some that have been running for 4+ years.

A baseline comparison of the same tests running in Boot Camp might give a nice understanding of what kind of general performance loss you're going to get by virtualising at all.

You can tell Parallels to never cross-associate OS X or Windows programs with each other via the configuration preferences ( http://goput.it/s5h.png ). I can't speak for Fusion but…
