> Marketing I suppose. Nope. And not sure where you get that idea. This release even involved a rename away from including "GRDB." When 0.1 of the library was released, it was a simple adapter between our Sharing library and GR

Are you suggesting SQLiteData is an ORM, or SwiftData? SwiftData (and CoreData) are certainly ORMs, but SQLiteData is not. It's simply a collection of tools on top of SQLite that provide similar functionality to SwiftData, but you alwa

I think you're missing the point. iOS 13 is not the value proposition of the library, it's simply one small feature of comparison of many and isn't highlighted beyond a simple mention. The library provides just as much value

Ah, I'd missed that update. Thanks! I prefer this to the current workflow.

For those that are worried, the source is there to inspect and compile. For those that aren't, there's reduced friction. It's a young project and I could move the binary elsewhere, but I'm not sure that would change your

Slingshot's supported Retina since V2. Dropbox's auto-upload of screen shots is pretty good (they're using a private API to copy the link the your clipboard before the upload even starts, so it feels really fast), but if you

It actually lets you do this already, though the documentation is relegated to a manpage that doesn't get installed automatically. It checks, in order, for: - $GHI_REPO env var - git config ghi.repo - remote named "upstream" - rem

We didn't spend $79 to read his blog. Amazon offers 2 price points, emphasizes the ad-driven one, and somewhat obscures the fact that it's ad-driven. I don't see how that relates to the free (and Creative Commons free content of) marco.org,

I would have loved to have had this a year ago, or two, etc., but my accidental quits haven't been nearly as frustrating since upgrading to Lion. I can still see this being useful, though, especially with apps that are slow to implement res

Having a standalone GCC installer is a nice option (especially if you have an Air with limited disk space), but if you want to avoid the hassle of debugging the occasional compilation failure, Xcode is the way to go.

Wouldn't radio streams fill that gap, then? Turntable's design sense was its differentiator, and many of my friends were completely charmed by the avatars when they first tried the service. If you actually do want the functionality of Turnt

While the same thoughts crossed my mind, I think he probably meant art in the age of mechanical reproduction. Still, programming affords a combination of the widest reach and lowest barrier to entry: it rarely requires the artist, performer

A friend and I built http://failin.gs with the mindset of vanilla anonymous feedback but were surprised when a lot of people started using their profile as a forum for feedback on their artwork and other hobbies.

Perhaps, but both the Mozilla and WebKit stylesheets are available for reference in their respective repositories (and likely unchanged, for the most part), and IE9's purported stylesheet is here: http://www.iecss.com/ It would be doable

I don't mean in bytes, I mean in how many elements it applies rules to (see rimantas' comment). I'm also not sure it _would_ lead to a much larger CSS file (only 16 tags differ among browsers, and I doubt 16 CSS rules would be required for

These kinds of resets often seem like overkill. Are there any reset libraries out there that do the bare minimum by normalizing against user agent defaults? I.e., those described here: http://css-class.com/test/css/defaults/UA-style-sheet-

Two strikes kept me from looking at this: 1. You posted this as a direct link and don't even have a comment with more information. 2. Registration required.

The captions are hyperbolic and quite funny, but perhaps funnier is the fact that our unconscious brains do have these kinds of reactions (though muted, of course). From an article I read the other day: "The cognitive revolution of the past

This is a bit disingenuous. 1. It did not pass Angry Birds, but Angry Birds Seasons Free, which is a relatively new app. 2. The Free app list is more volatile in general. Still, congrats to the developer on becoming so visible so quickly.

It's not really "blindly"; if you run `bundle update', the latest versions are documented in the Gemfile.lock.

I've found myself in the situation, a few times, where it was necessary to run `bundle update' to resolve dependency conflicts. You should, of course, always thoroughly test your application before deploying production code after a `bundle
