@danielpunkass That’s how I started. Highly recommended.

@McCloudStrife The context here is that I don’t think they’ve openly talked about it like that in the past. Focus was on great products.

@nickheer Nothing like seeing it in a tweet to help proofread. :(

@mjtsai Well, the good news is that my Radar got closed as a duplicate.

9:14 AM, Apr 28th, 2016 via Twitter Web Client in reply to mjtsai

@mdrockwell Congratulations!

2:41 PM, Apr 26th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to mdrockwell

@rosyna Yep, but I didn’t want to edit the text I was quoting.

4:15 PM, Apr 25th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to rosyna

@rosyna @macfixer Seems like the exporter needs to create its own security-scoped URL and manage its lifetime.

9:00 PM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to rosyna

@rosyna @macfixer Yes, that’s why I guessed that keeping the window open would help.

8:59 PM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to rosyna

@macfixer Turns out that QTX works if you keep the document window open until after the export has completed.

8:35 PM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to macfixer

@macfixer QTX. I don’t think 7 is sandboxed.

@bwebster I see. Are the checkboxes duplicate UI for the same underlying setting?

7:49 PM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to bwebster

@bwebster Do they stay in sync or control different things?

7:46 PM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to bwebster

@bradlarson Whereas because Swift provides other benefits, it encourages you to do that redesign. So it kind of is because of Swift.

11:26 AM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to bradlarson

@bradlarson Was also thinking: I bet you could write a fresh, better Obj-C version today, but there’s no compelling reason to.

11:24 AM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to bradlarson

@bradlarson Exactly. I let the comments stand because I think the points are valid, but I don’t like the tone.

11:20 AM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to bradlarson

@bradlarson Sorry about that.

11:16 AM, Apr 22nd, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to bradlarson

@grynspan Yes. Preview, for example.

5:39 PM, Apr 21st, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to grynspan

@grynspan If the key is always keyAEPropData, I don’t think that will work for me. I need to specify keyAESearchText.

5:37 PM, Apr 21st, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to grynspan

@grynspan Possibly, but I don’t see how to convert my AEKeyDesc to an AEDesc *. What exactly is the format of passThruParams?

5:32 PM, Apr 21st, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to grynspan

@McCloudStrife I agree with most of what Marco says. I think most people are expecting the “bad search-ad system, on top of bad search.”

5:16 PM, Apr 21st, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@grynspan There is NSWorkspaceLaunchConfigurationAppleEvent, but that seems to correspond to the LSApplicationParameters.initialEvent.

5:10 PM, Apr 21st, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to grynspan

@grynspan Yes, how do I specify the AEKeyDesc* inAEParam argument from LSOpenURLsWithRole?

5:09 PM, Apr 21st, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to grynspan

@nriley How do you like it otherwise?

10:47 PM, Apr 20th, 2016 via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to nriley

@iTod Cool. I hope it continues.

4:36 PM, Apr 19th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to iTod

@iTod What is the time period for your data? I had a bunch of quick reviews in 2012, too. Then 28, 7, 41, 61, 4 days, etc. No pattern.

4:30 PM, Apr 19th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to iTod

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell And the result of that was canning some of the features and rebranding the remainder.

4:15 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell I can’t imagine ever feeling safe in an Apple car. Don’t know much about Tesla software.

4:12 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell Hard to say. Might have micromanaged and fixed. Or pretended there no problem like with iPhone 4 antenna.

4:10 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@CraigGrannell @McCloudStrife More Ballmerish than I was expecting.

3:58 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to CraigGrannell

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell But, who knows, maybe the correct long-term play is to focus on watch and cars while the rest withers.

3:54 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to mjtsai

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell Of course. I still think they’re wrong or perhaps shortsighted.

3:52 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell It’s not a binary question of people abandoning or not.

3:51 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell I think they should do both of those things.

3:49 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell Because much of the value of Apple’s devices depends on what you can do with them, which apps are available.

3:44 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife Look at the history of the Mac and iOS and where a lot of the innovation has happened.

3:43 PM, Apr 15th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell I’m not a gamer, not really my area. But one example would have to be the state of Game Center.

@leebennett Not peeking?

5:31 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to leebennett

@maxwellarm Yeah, in practice, this never happened with nibs, though it seems like it could have.

5:25 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to maxwellarm

@oluseyidotinfo Only auto layout.

5:20 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to oluseyidotinfo

@danielpunkass Probably. The failure mode is bad because it never manifests when running on the current OS version.

5:19 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danielpunkass

@danielpunkass Yes.

5:17 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danielpunkass

@mjtsai There is no mention of labelColor in the xib file itself, and its deployment target is set to 10.6.

5:12 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to mjtsai

@Juanky1503 My guess is that they (whoever is deciding) actually have an interest in showing more games because they sell more.

2:31 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to Juanky1503

@stevenf Not that I’m aware of.

2:27 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to stevenf

@nickheer Thanks.

1:44 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to nickheer

@AppleFanboi1984 Do you mean access settings in the menu from the home screen?

1:43 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to AppleFanboi1984

@danielpunkass Me, too. I’m guessing the latter. Nearly every Radar I file that is not in open limbo is a duplicate.

1:33 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danielpunkass

@danielpunkass How could a large organization empower someone with that ability?

1:25 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danielpunkass

@mcelhearn Interesting. I haven’t seen others write about that problem. I thought I was the only one pressing it wrong.

1:16 PM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to mcelhearn

@peternlewis What’s the danger of JS via AS? JavaScript shouldn’t be able to harm anything. Is it about privacy and apps scraping Safari?

10:33 AM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to peternlewis

@peternlewis Good to know, since I use that. Do you know what the failure mode is?

10:32 AM, Apr 14th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to peternlewis

@McCloudStrife You seem to be arguing against something that I didn’t say or mean to imply.

4:56 PM, Apr 13th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@fpillet It worked for me.

3:09 PM, Apr 13th, 2016 via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to fpillet

@rmondello @ZevEisenberg @rescuetime Great!

1:58 PM, Apr 13th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to rmondello

@inkandben And, of course, Git supports nested folders.

2:38 PM, Apr 12th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to inkandben

@inkandben I like having as much as possible under version control. Plus, it also provides sync without needing another server.

2:37 PM, Apr 12th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to inkandben

@inkandben Mostly. There are a few places where dynamic LaunchBar snippets don’t get entered properly. I’m talking with there support.

2:36 PM, Apr 12th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to inkandben

@inkandben As it happens, I switched to Git+LaunchBar.

2:31 PM, Apr 12th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to inkandben

@McCloudStrife Right, but it’s not that simple. Still determines what types of investments will be made. And some devs will walk or fail.

9:49 PM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife Hardware sales matter a lot more to Apple than profit from the App Store.

9:46 PM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife If all the apps are fungible, so is the platform. And shallow apps make the platform less useful, which means less valuable.

9:44 PM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@McCloudStrife (a) no point in suggesting something bad for devs. (b) Long-term I don’t think our interests are that different.

9:42 PM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@dafacto That’s one of the odd things about this situation: the competing products are multi-purpose, and I already own/use most of them.

@danimal99 Any successful system has to set of the incentives favorably for making good apps.

9:46 AM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danimal99

@danimal99 If it’s not weighed by usage (which would have problems) then what’s to stop an influx of useless apps that just want to cash in?

9:45 AM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danimal99

@danimal99 Do you think Apple Music is a success for smaller musicians?

9:38 AM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danimal99

@danimal99 Hard problem, and good to throw ideas out there. My reaction based on thinking through a few test cases and comparing with music.

9:31 AM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danimal99

@danimal99 Hard to predict the consequences, but my gut feeling is that I don’t like that.

9:19 AM, Apr 8th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danimal99

@foltzwerk I believe they did disclose.

@petermaurer Please do. Does it download updated content from your site?

1:39 PM, Apr 7th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to petermaurer

@johnhugg Yeah, I failed the Shibboleth test.

11:17 AM, Apr 7th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to johnhugg

@McCloudStrife No, I don’t have a watch. That is a surprising finding, though. Everyone I’ve seen talk about this has blamed the CPU.

9:02 PM, Apr 6th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to McCloudStrife

@danielpunkass Oh. :(

3:48 PM, Apr 6th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danielpunkass

@danielpunkass Just curious: what symptom does Swift libraries being signed with your designated requirements cause?

3:32 PM, Apr 6th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danielpunkass

@_ansonj Yep! And it’s too bad it hasn’t been updated. I really like NSNotificationQueue.

@rbrockerhoff @Noodle_Hazel Safari extension?

6:34 PM, Apr 5th, 2016 via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to rbrockerhoff

@danielpunkass @thepodcastdude I wouldn’t make it a priority. But we don’t know how long. And that uncertainty is not good. Like tech debt.

4:29 PM, Apr 5th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to danielpunkass

@thepodcastdude @danielpunkass Depend on the product that is no longer being updated and might break when I’m forced to update my OS?

4:24 PM, Apr 5th, 2016 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to thepodcastdude

@dafacto I don’t think so, but this is actually one of my issues. Not clear what is changing and what I’d get in new version.

3:46 PM, Apr 5th, 2016 via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to dafacto

@jcieplinski @dafacto Not on iOS, though, because lack of OS support means apps have to support the utilities individually.

2:56 PM, Apr 5th, 2016 via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to jcieplinski

@dafacto I’m not necessarily opposed to a subscription, but not happy with the way this one is being done.

2:48 PM, Apr 5th, 2016 via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to dafacto

@dafacto Is there an easy way to do that?

It does seem like people didn’t stick with 10.1 or 10.4 as long. Doesn’t seem to all be 32-bit Mac’s, either.
