At least it stopped now. Really wonder what happened though, preparation for the adult content filters?


I believe you can use xcode command line tools to build using appcode. Haven't used in ages though, so don't quote me on that


Expected this to be a "the code I never wrote" thing, from there blog name.

Then thought it might be a "lol look at my bad code that I wrote 6 years ago"

Pleasantly surprised. For more, I recommend"the gift of Fire" by Sara Baase.


Linked to archive as it was taken down, probably was meant to release at Connect() next week



Thank you for showing me this!

Not sure how I missed it.


I wouldn't risk my business only because a google employee tweeted "30x redirects don't lose PageRank anymore.". Because there is a lot room for different interpretations and open questions.


If you want to compile to windows, you absolutely do.


I think the argument/joke he's trying to make is that he'd be happier without anyone using Windows (which would conveniently solve the problem of having to compile to Windows)


I get the joke and I've been aggressively trying to avoid it. But you can't, unless you only deal with phones or server backend.

Coming from a Linux user, for most people, Windows is the only usable non-Apple-hardware OS, unfortunately.


I was able to convince several people to move from windows to GNU/Linux. In some cases, it didn't took more than 2 minutes!

Case 1: Religious/moral people: If you are using unauthorized (pirated?) copies of windows, isn't it like stealing? Think of the amount you are stealing just by installing M$-something, Adobe something, etc.

How can you wish that your money/wealth shouldn't be stealed when you steals somebody else's money?

Case 2: Business people: Have you ever contacted M$ for support? Then why would you pay them, just for something that runs viruses smoothly, and occasionally having blue screen of death?

Case 3: Personal: I came to know that I was like a frog in a well when I was introduced to GNU/Linux. Thanks to Microsoft for wasting my 10 years of time. Now I know about windows, may be more than some windows admin would do, just because I don't use windows anymore!

Serious GNU/Linux users may not have a solution known for an immediate problem. But they know how to find a solution or where to look for it.


I generally tend to shy away from trying to convince people that they should change their operating system. I find it quite annoying in the (thankfully rare) occasions that some overzealous Mac user tries to tell me that my choice of machine/operating system is inferior, so I find it hard to believe that other people wouldn't feel the same way if I tried to someone else that their choice is incorrect (even if I feel strongly that it is).

Of course, if someone is interested in learning more about Linux, I'll happily teach them as much as they want to know and give them my opinions of the advantages of using Linux. But unless the person is already open to hearing my opinions on the topic, it tends to be a waste of both of our time.


Fees, and its not that great for the recipient. Better for those sending. Being a bit hypocritical though, I use it myself.


Not OP, but r/crouton works pretty well


Not entirely sure if this fits the site, but since the github news hit, I was trying to configure a way that doesn't make ssh confused with multiple keys.


If anyone else is planning to leave, consider doing this:

    git remote set-url --add --push origin https://gitlab.com/name/repo.git
    git remote set-url --add --push origin https://github.com/name/repo.git
    git remote set-url --add --push origin https://bitbucket.com/name/repo.git
This way when you git push, it pushes simultaneously to all 3.
