For a moment there, I thought this was related to the Eero language project ( http://eerolanguage.org ).

While I like Swift (from what I've played with it, around SourceKitService crashing every two seconds), it doesn't provide you with the "just enough rope" that Objective-C does. Many of Objective-C's best capabiliti

Correct; Apple has made the latest Xcode beta available to "free" developer accounts, as of today (source: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=07112014a ).

When I worked for Universal Uclick, we released the GoComics app all at the same time for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. I worked on the iOS release until its launch, and we had the ear of its developer support team up until and well afte

I'm beginning to appreciate the concept of Interactors and Entities more these days (application-specific business logic versus application-independent business logic), now that I'm some sort of a mature adult (jury is still out o

Granted, to each their own, but the one thing I concern myself with is readability and learning curve, especially on projects where there's even the remotest possibility that somebody could be inheriting my code. If I toss in a library

I glossed over that originally, apologies; I've updated my comment.

Kudos to Mattt Thompson and the whole community of collaborators that put work into this release. AFNetworking makes a large part of my job making iOS apps a joy, and I can't wait to start working with latest round of changes and featu

My favorite line from the article: "Even so, his specialty has been hardware, designing a product out of materials such as aluminum and glass - not software, which is based in code." I've been writing software wrong all these years!

Another person trying to make this a "Hacker News vs. Reddit" thing, which still doesn't appeal to the reason sectors of my brain. Definitely not a ripoff; Mashable's clearly grasping at straws again.

Split panes is pretty much the main reason I need iTerm2. That, combined with system-wide hotkey toggling (which I used to get on Terminal with Visor), and Send Commands to All Sessions mode (cmd-ctrl-i, I think) makes me a happy command li

I'm with thwarted on this one. I don't want to put my repo on a service where I have to opt-out of things based on extraneous files in my repo. That's extra clutter in my repo for something that could easily be handled in other ways (not to

I'm not a computer scientist, but I speculate it's due to Objective-C's compilation with LLVM.

As I'm not terribly familiar with AirBnb and its terms, why won't it let the poster spell out "Google"?

I can't stress enough how important it is to _not_ use `and` and `or`. As a former die-hard fan of those operators, it bit me in the ass so hard when those didn't exactly work the way they were supposed to. I've been using && and ||

The Xbox never was an open platform to begin with, unlike the PC. The PC has never been the kind of platform to lock stuff down; while Microsoft may have their merits for doing so, a lot of people are up in arms about it and rightly so (as

Thank you (x3) for the explanation on how this works and what went wrong. Your comment alone is more insightful on any of these articles that've been submitted on this problem. You win my Internets, mitchellh.

Wait a minute, they snagged the Bukkit guys? I must have totally missed that. I'd love a link, if you've got one.

Design or number of users regardless, people really need to stop using the word 'disrupt'. It's one of the top reasons I steer clear of TechCrunch.

So it's not just me, then. IMO, writing `someThing ||= {}` is much more eloquent than `var someThing = someThing || {}`. The first point he raises is a valid argument; CoffeeScript's intro does uglify the JS a little to make its point. Bu
