    I got started doing iOS development by writing jailbreak tweaks and have done so for the past 5 years. I will be starting a new position at Apple and will no longer be working on any of my jailbreak projects. I’ve enjoyed my time working with the jailbreak community!

    Students are taking their Physics Midterm exam today. I said no cell phones, not even for music since they could be used to cheat. This student brought in a record player and is bumping Kanye in his headphones right now...
