  1. @hifi Hockey Tarts!
  2. Apps that use public network protocols with any non-public Apple extensions will be rejected.
  3. @peternlewis PowerTalk tried that, mass deforestation ensued!
  4. Messages ER: Send at Date/Time Send at 4AM when idea strikes. Deliver at normal wake time. No more sleepy time chimes? Priceless.
  5. Finally found something to celebrate in Xcode 4! Open with External Editor
  6. @bmastenbrook yep, but just barely
  7. Apple Stores should just sell boxed Xcode licenses with golden WWDC tickets inside.
  8. @chockenberry ...putting everything into one UI space? Oh, you mean like Xcode 4!
  9. Dear Xcode, there weren't any [spaces|tabs|random shit] present when I copied, so why the hell was it there when I pasted? kthxbye.
  10. @millenomi @mikeash remember when debuggers would do insane shit... like looking in the same directory as the executable?!?
  11. @mikeash Fail -> Abort? Retry? -> Fail
  12. @mikeash They can't fix it until they are done dumbing it down to the level of the average user. Fixing it for us would be a waste.
  13. Slippery germy brick, LOL
  14. @wilshipley Delicious Library, mid 2012 pre bug fix edition
  15. @mikeash and it crashes regardless of which button you click, right?
  16. @lapcat You skipped the part where they whine about being hungry and helpless for days on end. Then they die.
  17. Months later, I still think email windows shooting up off the screen on send is the stupidest, most gratuitous, crapanimation in 10.7
  18. Step 1: Select .xcodeproj in the Finder Step 2: Accidentally hit cmd-P instead of cmd-O Step 3: Watch Xcode implode Step 4: Sigh...
  19. @rtmfd iSCSI with Java admin tools? *shudder* Good call dumping and running!
  20. @danielpunkass How can you say that about the people who used projector over AFP? Idiot...
