Chasing the impossible with Daniel Jalkut. December 11, 2013. Apple’s iOS and Mac App Stores employ a crude system of ratings and reviews that nonetheless has an impact on how marketable an app is, and accordingly, how much money it brings in. Since very early in the history of these stores, developers looking to raise the average “star rating” on their apps, and to garner gushing words of praise in their reviews, have dealt with a conundrum:.

You do this in ‘App Groups’ in the capabilities section of you target. Xcode will automatically cre...You don’t have ...

Hacking the Mac, iOS, and more with Daniel Jalkut. The Curious Case Of Xcode’s Commit Message. July 23, 2015. Xcode has a behavior with its source code integration, wherein the pending commit message is persisted so that if you cancel a commit, and then go back to commit again later, the text you already typed is preserved. This is a nice feature. However, my friend Seth Dillingham lamented on Twitter. That for some reason the persisted commit text on his Mac was. Named by the creator and used for whatev...

Be careful: spoilers abound. Things my brain farted about . Orac hits the nail on the head about the Trump Presidency and science. The more I think about it, the more I think people are right that not all Donald Trump supporters are racist. However, they are willing to overlook racism because they think Trump will address their own problems. I don't see a lot of difference between racism and looking over it. Very little at all.
