@Dirk_Gently OK, fortunately my feed reader likes it. Wasn’t aware of your pronoun preference; will correct. Thanks for the articles!
Really glad that I decided to invest some time in automating common tags using the @FogBugz API.
The iOS Calendar app can set separate time zones for start and end times. Would be nice to have that on the Mac and in Fantastical.
@sethwillits Great idea!
@nriley Didn’t they also do that a year or so ago when they changed what each plan included?
@mhenders After all that effort trying to convince us that SiteKey made us safer. Hopefully it will soon work consistently with 1Password.
@mjdrayton So apparently the square brackets were the *original* AppleScript list syntax: mjtsai.com/blog/2015/05/2…
@arekholko @rentzsch Indeed. Too bad Apple likely won't add enums to the language at this point, but you both came up with good solutions.
@mjdrayton I just noticed it today: mjtsai.com/blog/2015/05/2…
How long has Applescript supported [] instead of {} for list literals?
@FogBugz The text looks gray even in your own blog post screenshot. But, yes, I will send more info.
@FogBugz I'm finding the new body text for cases more difficult to read. Could you return it to black instead of gray-on-white?
@JimRoepcke That would be great.
@ZeroDistraction I wish that future were here. But wouldn’t it be possible to make a font that looks good on both?
@_JCobb Interesting. So do you unplug it? Or just run 24/7?
Fourth time in a row the Apple TV had no network connection. Fix it, Apple!
@kyleve Interesting. And I guess you could "return" early if there's an error or to get out of a loop.
Added some more links to the Instance Articles post: mjtsai.com/blog/2015/05/1…
@bmastenbrook @landonfuller Looks good. Thanks for the link.

@czechboy0 No time for that at the moment, but maybe I can write a blog post sometime.
@czechboy0 But note that you can get NSTaskDidTerminateNotification before the last NSFileHandleReadCompletionNotification…
@czechboy0 I guess if you want to be safer you could wait until you also get a NSTaskDidTerminateNotification.
@czechboy0 As far as I know, that's the best way to do it. I wonder if a script could purposely close its pipes before it finishes?
@czechboy0 No, because instead of calling -waitUntilExit you run your own loop until the output and error are finished.
@czechboy0 Build up the output/error data a chunk at a time. Don't -waitUntilExit. Keep running the run loop until file handles are empty.
@czechboy0 As I recall, -waitUntilExit will just hang. Solution is to register both file handles for read completion notifications.
@czechboy0 Looks like this doesn't handle the case where the task never terminates because the output pipe buffer gets filled up.
@danielpunkass @gparker Yes, that's what I meant.
@danielpunkass Cool!
@danielpunkass As in, you have a hard-coded list of settings that you know you don't want?
@danielpunkass Yes, but I like to accept and then revert so that I can see what changes it wants to make, and where.
@mhenders There are definitely some issues with the new stuff, but I like what they are trying to do and like to see progress.
@rosyna @Kr1sso @tonyarnold When I try to use -Wpartial-availability in Xcode 6.3.1, Clang says it's an unknown warning option.
@leebennett Maybe…
@leebennett Well, I have to keep rebooting it anyway or it loses Internet access. ;(
@leebennett Do you recall what you did?
Is the Flickr app for Apple TV intended to only show a limited number of photos in each album?
@danielpunkass Yes, that seems essential.
@danielpunkass Yes, I think even now the best practices for the sandbox data folder and transitions/updates are not well understood.
@danielpunkass That's interesting because from the outside it doesn't seem like a blog editor would be difficult to sandbox.
@khanlou I'm pretty happy with with RocketStor. Have not found anything better. mjtsai.com/blog/2014/06/1…
@chockenberry Could you share any more details about the AppleScript restrictions?
