The real point is that in any security architecture, at some point you end up trusting someone.

The same goes for if an SSL provider stops providing mozilla.com with a cert.

If people have access to Facebook 24/7, in their pockets, they are more likely to become dependent on it in their daily lives. The mobile app fuels the addiction which keeps people…

There's no one standard definition of "4G". A myriad of differing technologies all claim to be 4G, which is why it's just about impossible for a vendor to produce a device compatib…

I've been trying to get people I know at Apple to start referring to it internally as Mountain Goat. It's working.

Ingenious. I can't wait to see what other iMessage-based services pop up now that the AppleScript bindings are exposed.

$ git mergetool Opens FileMerge. Then just keep tapping the down/left/right keys to choose changes.

> most of their applications are NOT being coded in Obj-C Yeah I'm going to call bullshit on that. Bullshit.

You fail to account for the variables involved in "calories out". Metabolism is controlled in a large way by hormones. For example, extremely undernourished people will slow their …

That's not true at all. Interpreted code is perfectly legitimate to use in an iOS app, under certain restrictions. The first is that you cannot JIT it, because the OS prevents exec…

That takes a lot more effort. Besides, most apps will be signed by the time it's released.

It's still months away from release, we might see an option to put trusted certs in the keychain.

You're kidding, right? It sounds like you don't know how the GPL applies to them or you think Apple is really dumb. There is absolutely no reason to move those apps. They're binari…

It's free to get a cert from Apple to sign your app, but you have to be a registered developer (which is also free). Essentially, you have to be a real person who can be identified…

There's a reason for that. U.S. accounting law requires that non-subscription devices that are upgraded have a fee associated with the upgrade under Apple and many analysts’ interp…

I'm a dev. I carry an iPhone 4 and a Galaxy S. I hate the Galaxy S. Disproven by counterexample.

Looks like you can't pass a function as an argument to any of the functions in a Sugarless chain. Seems like a pretty glaring oversight to me.

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that 5.4 introduced closures, I was more speaking on a long-term level on that note.

It's been a long time since I had any interest at all in PHP, and these new features make me feel uneasy once again. The development server seems like the only good thing about it.…

Ad hominem attacks aside, let me address your points. Firstly, destruction upon leaving scope in Objective-C would add some magic unexpected behavior that doesn't conform to what w…
