There is a link to the library in the first sentence of the transcript. I know Pointfree do script their episodes but I can’t say I’ve ever noticed it in any detrimental way.
iOS is relatively young. It attracts a lot of new programmers. For years iOS suffered from lack of ideas around architecture and solid programming practices. In the last few years I've seen this start to change and now…
Lots of sites down for me in the UK. I was using my ISPs DNS (Sky), switched to 8.8.8.8 and not much better.
One workaround is to change your business model and accept donations instead. That obviously won't work for everyone, obviously. This works because tips and gratuities are not considered taxable consideration for VAT…
Has there been any concrete evidence that the EU plans to extend these rules to physical goods as I've only seen speculation.
Grey area IMO and different EU tax authorities may have differing views, just to make things more complicated.
Yes, B2B sales between EU countries are handled using the reverse charge system, when the supply is where the customer belongs - subject to certain use and enjoyment provisions (e.g. If a UK business sells software to a…
As I mention in my post below, if you're a non-EU company selling digital goods and services to EU customers, then strictly speaking these new rules don't change much - it's was already the case that non-EU suppliers…
On digital goods and services. I'm pretty sure the liability to pay VAT on physical goods, along with any import duty, is the customers when the item is imported. For the record, here's the HMRC (UK revenue service)…
US/non-EU companies selling digital products and services to the EU is most certainly NOT exempt, and it wasn't exempt before these recent changes - it's been a requirement that US/non-EU businesses selling digital…
I don't have the time to read it and verify but could this be a patent for the algorithm? If so, does it make any difference anyway? http://www.google.com/patents/US20090043584
Is this the patent for the algorithm in question? http://www.google.com/patents/US20090043584
Have you used Appium? It does pretty much the same thing. I have an alternative Ruby library for it too: https://github.com/songkick/rubium-ios You can use it with Cucumber or Rspec or whatever.
Other than adding dozens of methods to NSArray/MutableArray for each "generic" you define and limiting my choice of collection to an array (rather than a set or dictionary), why would you use this rather than define…
Using the new keyframe animation API by the looks of things.
You may want to check the release notes of the latest iOS/Xcode beta. (but yes, I agree, that it has taken this long is crazy)

They always have been. The new XIB format is the same as the current Storyboard format. It doesn't completely prevent merge conflicts though.
I'm sure if Apple really wanted to incorporate this into their apps they would either a) license the patent or b) just do it anyway.
And soon it won't even need MacRuby, just the Ruby that ships with OSX.
It is admittedly, on double-checking, a bit convoluted. Settings > iCloud > Storage and Backup > Manage Storage > [DEVICE] > Backup Options.
Yes, you can disable iCloud backup on a per app basis.
But only if you are online, which defeats the object of "offline access".
I honestly don't think there is an issue with allowing Instapaper content to get backed up to iCloud here. The analogy of a user created archive is a good one. If people don't want the benefit of having their Instapaper…
Lots of people are focussing on Marco's particular use case in the comments, and I think it's a valid one, but this extends beyond simple documents. There is a category of data that is aimed at offline use. Streaming…
