  1. "Ken Case walks into a bar"
  2. @cbarrett True, but not impossible to navigate. I think the biggest roadblock in making a good git GUI app is still git's complexity.
  3. @thekarladam Still, designers + git is gonna have to happen if someone's to make a good git client.
  4. New insight on exception handling: there is no try. ;)
  5. @fraserspeirs Congratulations!
  6. @uliwitness nice one :)
  7. @michielmeeteren Poker night tomorrow.. ?
  8. @chockenberry @rands iow: ask about recently learned things, if that's only about visual dsgn, they never worked closely|well w/ engineers
  9. @rands When did you last redo a design because an engineer pointed out a problem with it?
  10. @catshive bang
  11. Yay, responder chain discussion :D — who's gonna send the next message? who will respond? find out tomorrow! same time, same channel! ;)
  12. or encapsulation, if that would've fit
  13. @drewmccormack My pt being: when relaying actions from WC, you'll ev. need to relay other logic too. Finally: WC knows all: 2*bye insulation
  14. @drewmccormack eg.: Mail.app, message list is key, hit P. message pane's VC handles print:. No selection=can't print. should WC know?
  15. @drewmccormack I prefer the bucket approach w/ very specific + unique method names over relaying. relaying = spaghetti, ideal: another chain
  16. @drewmccormack Doesn't that mean that other VCs at the same level may never get a shot, depending on where a message is sent from?
  17. @dannygreg Before I forget, credit for that idea should go to @catshive and @jonathandann, not me. Works great for Checkout.
  18. @dannygreg Yeah, definitely shouldn't have to :) But it works, if you stick the vCtls behind their wCtls, which isn't perfect.
  19. @dannygreg And of course also a unified way of 'unloading' them, if you don't like crashes
  20. @dannygreg Our windowControllers manually patch them in. w/ a unified way of loading vCtls in wCtls it's doable to make it 'Just Work'
