The file revision history is - to the best of my knowledge - an OS X API that applications have to use (opt in). I don't think it comes "for free" with an OS upgrade, unless you mean Time Machine.

Just yesterday, my colleagues were describing having Stockholm syndrome with Java. Went something like: "It's really easy to make fun of, but the more you use it, the more you start to feel bad for it."

Not included in the poll is MUMPS. I had a job right out of college that required me to write all of my code in it. It was pretty much the worst thing ever.

I agree. The phrases consistently end in a way that is never completely resolved. See: "In less than three weeks you can be looking at things differently, more creatively, if you" "Why many people achieve very little despite

This seems like a possible win for Apple, and I hope they implement it. I just wanted to point out that OSX to iOS AirDrop is not as trivial as many people make it sound. There are edge cases, such as "what if the user doesn't hav

An interesting perspective. John Gruber does a much better job at refuting it here (under "Defining Innovation Down") than I ever could: http://daringfireball.net/2013/09/the_iphone_5s_and_5c

They don't know anything about it. But a lot of new APIs were made available to developers that will make great apps easier to make. I think that's better for users than a new OS toy.

It's important to ask yourself what you would do if you could AirDrop from your iOS device to an OS X device. Even though under the covers iOS and OS X work on files, iOS is sandboxed where OS X isn't, i.e. if you can't get t

It probably would've been useful to know before iOS7 app submissions were open, but, if that's their reasoning, it's a chicken-egg problem.

I think it's prudent to note that Apple made specific guarantees of fingerprint privacy; however such explicit guarantees haven't been made for passcode privacy.

It's iOS 7 for text! Seriously though, it would be interesting to see this as a feature in new e-readers. I have a feeling that if the e-ink could support it, the effect could be better than books.

As a mobile developer who has worked on both platforms, I agree wholeheartedly with this. Xcode and Interface Builder is much easier to use than Eclipse (I found myself constantly editing the raw XML interface files). And I find the UIKit A

Screen-casting from the desktop version of Google Chrome is a (beta) browser extension. From 2 mins of Googling (I'm no expert), it looks like you can detect those trivially.

Native app download at google.com/chromecast/setup - looks like the native app searches for the devices and uses your computer as an external (wifi?) input for setup.

google.com/chromecast/setup gives you a link to download a native computer app. Looks like it does some wifi search from the native app to "pair" and setup the device.
