Xcode 3 works fine so yeah I agree. We'll point people there.
This is a fair point. It may work that we can support both 3 and 4. But experience suggests that even minor build bumps of Xcode cause issues compiling software. Ultimately it is a lot easier for us if we can say…
Grab Xcode 4. It's still beta and buggy but it's all one window and is pretty good IMO. There's keyboard shortcuts for spaces. And CMD` to switch between windows in apps. OS X isn't perfect, I switched from KDE 5 years…
I'll be sure to give it a thorough testing. Thanks for your work.
His counter argument seems to be that the original blog post didn't offer alternatives or patches and so it is invalid. Which of course is not a counter argument at all. IMO the Ruby stdlib is a mess. Denying it won't…
http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew is my project. IMO anyone who is afraid of forking is actually just afraid of losing control. It's much easier now for people to do a better job than you. You have to work harder in order…
I stopped using formulae as the plural as I felt like a twit.
/usr/local makes it far easier to install stuff like Gems with C extensions. It is a standard path checked by the C build system (eg. gcc). There no good reason I have yet heard why using /usr/local is bad advise. I…
It's worth pointing out that "sudo is up to you". So leave /usr/local alone if you like. Or install Homebrew to ~/homebrew. Whatever you choose. Homebrew was designed to be flexible and non-intrusive. However the…
It's not that I hate sudo. But I encourage people not to use it because: 1. You're adding to OS X. It's very important that stuff that gets built definitely didn't touch any files in /usr or /System. Build systems for…
Playgrub and Playdar have the potential to bring music to all sorts of sites that currently only talk about it or offer it in somewhat tedious ways. Much recommended!
In my experience not hard as long as you wrote portable code. The hardest bit is compiling a universal binary.
Hi I wrote Homebrew, and this is one of my goals, I've always wanted installing from source on Linux to get package management too. I do a lot of cross platform dev, and would also love for this to work on Windows. But…
Yes well said, I reconsider my stance. Apple's store is full of crap, and Blackberry's won't be. Apple want to control their platform completely, but frankly, like you say, they don't seem to have a huge quality…
Ahh, this is a good point I hadn't considered.
Honestly, from experience I know they hardly reject any apps. There's some serious publicity surrounding a few keys app rejections here and there (hell ours was rejected once, Last.fm), but really, they reject for…
I think it'll kill the market. You need that experimentation zone. We just released our app on there. But I'd never release any hobby projects to their store. It's not just the price point that stops me. I can afford…
BeyerDynamic 770 Pros: http://bit.ly/zbEBB You can wear them all day and barely notice. Great bass. You can turn them way up and there is almost no leakage.
27. I win.
Saying stuff like that makes you sound young and inexperienced. That counts more than your actual age :P
