Here's how to set screenshots to save in your Downloads folder:

defaults write com.apple.screencapture location ~/Downloads && killall SystemUIServer

Nice job touching on backward compatibility. It’s underrated.

Thank you. This fits a current need of mine perfectly.

Do you have any other helpful tips you’d like to share? Any thoughts between Redis and Memcache?

adding to sprite’s comment, they still allow new dating apps that match their guidelines.

+1 on the SIM theory.

Carrier, iso country code, mobile country code, mobile network code, and more are all easily accessible data attributes.

Have you tried fishing a different pond?

Glad to hear recovery being made… this typhoon was a bad one.

Humans make mistakes, and Patrick apologized on the behalf of this experience.

While there may be opinions on whether or not this “makes it right”, apologies in today’s world should still carry some worth.

Another +1 for Postmark. Reliable and insightful.

What really sold me personally as a bootstrapper was how they offer initial credit for their services to help get going.

I’ve given this thought for an older MBP of mine that can’t upgrade to latest OS so that it can be used as a CI.

My issue with that is 1. Can I trust the hackintosh to not be compromised and 2. Uploading an IPA via hackintosh feels like bananas.

You pretty much dotted the i’s and crossed the T’s on this one.

The general idea is too complex for me to give a solid, single piece of advice on how to identify genuine vs not, but what I can tell you is this:

I recently became aware of a very real death of a close Philippine friend’s grandmother and I knew their family couldn’t afford a proper burial. So I requested to talk to the eldest of the family, offered to cover cost (less than the price of a new iPad) with their approval to do so, and for my name to not be included in the justification.

For context - I’ve personally been to the Philippines a few times and seen some of the ups and downs (white American since birth). Never sent that friend or their family anything before nor felt compelled to do this. I’m grateful for what I have in life and for those who have done good toward me, so simply paying it forward.

Any plans to add developing countries, in particular the Philippines?

What key metrics do you observe when it boils down to determining whether or not you feel it is a good or bad time to buy?

Thank you for bringing this to light.

I have been heads down on my own side hustle as a one man show. Do you have any suggestions on how to properly approach backups for smaller groups like myself working with limited funds?

For context, some of the tech on my plate includes a few DO ubuntu droplets (hosting docker containerized services), Postgres DB (prod DO managed w/ auto-snaps, pretty much same scenario you mentioned), S3 storage for user-created assets (DO spaces w/ no backup strategy yet; no, not launched, yet), GitHub for source code, and physical MacBooks (iCloud + manual backups to a single physical external SSD).

Realistically speaking I’m bootstrapped. More importantly, I’m interested in learning the right ways in doing backups.

Does anyone here have any tips/tricks when it comes to iOS builds?

Currently experimenting with Travis-CI, but man it sure does take awhile at 45-60 minutes roughly in my personal case. Have heard a dedicated Mac of some kind to leave at the office may help. Overall, I am all ears to any advice.

To compliment this:

1. Code is only as good as its documentation

2. Write code in a way where you’d understand it one year from now

I’ve been to the Philippines a couple times (out of my own curiosity; origin = USA), and let me tell you, customer service there is HUGE.

From an American perspective, a couple key points to know are 1. Filipinos are among the nicest people in the world, cultural-wise, and 2. English is taught starting in most elementary schools there.

But wait, there’s more!

From the Filipino perspective, you get to help enable a new means of living income in what is a competitive and resourced-limited economy. To add perspective, while it’s not in all locations, it’s not uncommon to see homeless children wandering hopelessly.

I have found this to be a helpful resource when it comes to scaling in general.

The Structure of Scientific Revolutions

I have explained to my daughters programming is basically a tool-belt that helps one build something they want.. like how paint brushes are simply tools to help create a painting.

For example, I was showing my 7 year old daughter the other night how she could automate her Roblox character with a simple AppleScript in order to move it every so often so that it could gain points while avoiding timeout from being idle, all while she could go and do other things around home. She smiled pretty big.

In short, IME showing how programming helps achieve an outcome has worked best. A general interest may compliment.

“Avatar: The Last Airbender” tv series.

Enjoyable storyline with one of the most unique and satisfying endings. Great option to watch with the kids and it teaches life lessons along the way.

Can envision this turning into “let us track you for free access” or pay some sort of monthly subscription for denied tracking + access. If socially engineered in just the right way, would not be surprised if majority of people would allow this.

Now I wonder if this goes against an App Store policy somewhere or if this is one way Apple will combat such an attempt.

While on the topic of onboarding emails and how the read focuses around early stage company development, what I would like to also see is a breakdown of lessons learned with SMTP services and how to approach for an early stage company.

Anyone have any advice/recommendations/suggestions?

Ahh, life.. it is odd, unique, and many other things.

It is fair to say one commonality among humans is that the thought of death is a frightening one to many, right? Being rid of existence for the rest of _eternity_ sure can be a powerful thought.

For whatever reason, it seems like this is often a one road thought. What I have personally heard much less of (and never once growing up in a religious setting), is this:

Is the thought of existing for the rest of _eternity_ not equally frightful?

Riddle me this:

I wonder what ROI would look like in comparison if the schemers targeted $49.98.

Interesting...what made you two decide to go heads down in the afternoon versus morning?

Save files to my desktop. When it gets too messy, I throw a one-liner "hide desktop icons on mac" command in Terminal. When it never gets messy again, I don't repeat.

defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop -bool false && killall Finder

I'm about 2~3 years deep at the moment.

Your approach on providing feedback is clean, to the point, and most importantly, encouraging. Well done, Zachary.
