    Are you suggesting SQLiteData is an ORM, or SwiftData? SwiftData (and CoreData) are certainly ORMs, but SQLiteData is not. It's simply a collection of tools on top of SQLite that p…

    For those that are worried, the source is there to inspect and compile. For those that aren't, there's reduced friction. It's a young project and I could move the binary elsewhere,…

    It actually lets you do this already, though the documentation is relegated to a manpage that doesn't get installed automatically. It checks, in order, for: - $GHI_REPO env var - g…

    We didn't spend $79 to read his blog. Amazon offers 2 price points, emphasizes the ad-driven one, and somewhat obscures the fact that it's ad-driven. I don't see how that relates t…

    I would have loved to have had this a year ago, or two, etc., but my accidental quits haven't been nearly as frustrating since upgrading to Lion. I can still see this being useful,…

    Having a standalone GCC installer is a nice option (especially if you have an Air with limited disk space), but if you want to avoid the hassle of debugging the occasional compilat…

    Wouldn't radio streams fill that gap, then? Turntable's design sense was its differentiator, and many of my friends were completely charmed by the avatars when they first tried the…
