I liked this article a lot - information-dense but approachable. It feels like you can understand the entire app using only the code snippets in the article, which speaks to the quality of the design. The only part that made me roll my eyes

I appreciate the thorough read! For deprecations we're lucky in that the underlying systems don't change very much (the Input Message Accountability Data isn't going anywhere). But we'll run into collisions when we, for

I guess the phrase "no abstractions" is specifically valuable to us when designing our REST API resources - our whole stack is certainly an abstraction of sorts, but we don't want to add yet another abstraction in that specif

Yes, exactly, the important thing to us is that our users don't need to build an additional mental model between us and the networks we sit atop. If you know the network, we want you to be able to intuit how our API works. There's

Author here - this has been a useful mindset for us internally but I'm curious if it resonates externally. I'd love your feedback!

I took a crack at recreating this in javascript once the necessary APIs made their way to mobile safari - https://highphone.app if interested! (iPhones only, sorry)

(Increase employee) We took the approach of starting with an intentionally bad name (in our case, bnk.dev) and using it until a good domain became available to purchase for a reasonable price. Related: http://www.paulgraham.com&#

Haha, sorry! I snagged it for a friend. Bought it immediately upon sight - wasn't gonna let it get away after someone got sailbo.at from under me.

Wow, this is really good! I'm surprised at how many shortwords are still available given a little creativity.

Neat idea overall! Some small feedback: - You should check and see if the device has rotation lock enabled (or use a rotation API that isn't affected by it); I keep it on by default and the game wouldn't work for me until I though

Hmm, github.com is throwing a 500 error at the moment. I wonder if this is somehow related?

Great question. For classes with sufficiently rich customization options (UISlider, UIStepper, UIBarButtonItem, etc) I don't think it's necessary to provide a full-on subclass, as ultimately I'm not really changing what the class does . I'

Yeah, FUIButtons have a shadowHeight property which can simply be set to 0.

That's a really good observation re: accessibility, and something that had totally slipped my mind. I'll add accessibility support for FUISwitch and FUIAlertView in the next release (everything else, being a subclass/category of existing UI

Thanks! It feels good to get this out there - we want (and plan) to open-source more stuff but have been so busy that we haven't had the time. Deliberately writing this to be open-sourced also made me a lot more considerate when developing

It's also the name of a great short story by Cory Doctorow (link below). Bit of a ripoff by MS on the title. http://blogoscoped.com/archive/2007-09-17-n72.html

CS129 (Computational Photography) at Brown actually has students reconstruct these same photos as its first assignment. It's not too hard, and a good introduction to image alignment. Check out the assignment at http://www.cs.brown.edu/cour
