Congratulations! From time to time I visit your website and consider applying when between jobs but never did. Might try this year :)

Laptop wise: it's a PowerBook G4 1Ghz 15', Titanium model. Desktop: PowerMac G4 Tower, MDD version.

I'm among the first 6000 users of Instagram and my first name username was stolen a few years ago. Support for verified accounts acknowledged the issue, but couldn't do anything about it.

This turn was an AI exploit, in my case was an outsourcing support 'exploit', where someone paid for my username to be manually changed and given to another user. There will always be a way to get access to accounts if human accountable support doesn't exist, with criminal consequences for employees that violate it.

At a previous job, I was downloading daily legal torrent data when IT flagged me. The IT admin, eager to catch me doing something wrong, burst into the room shouting with management in tow. I had to calmly explain the situation, as management assumed all torrenting was illegal and there had been previous legal issues with an intern pirating movies. Fortunately, other colleagues backed me up.

Reminded of the origin story of making Mac OS X Unix certified: https://www.quora.com/What-goes-into-making-an-OS-to-be-Unix...

Understood, thank you!

Customer here, from previous versions. Could you expand on the reasoning of not offering an upgrade price? Is it just to messy nowadays on the technical side, especially with the Mac App Store?

Will be upgrading in the future, congratulations on the launch!

Resend is, or at least at launch was, using SES as their email provider.

Would love this also.

The best option I could find was using Digital Ocean Managed Databases. The cheapest costs $15, but you can host multiple databases with good insights and backups. You can choose where you host it, and place it close to the region where youre Fly.io apps are, with low latency.

Only caveat is there isn't an easy way to automatically update the IPs whitelist of the database, to support the Fly builder and deployed app(s).

This requirement is weird. Not everyone upgrades to the latest macOS version and lots of people still prefer to run macOS 10.x.

This change was more due to the iOS 7 flat redesign, than to what the author proposes.

A design trend, where it became fashionable to have a flat design supported by illustration/iconography, further away from skeumorphism, which photography was more close to.

Fine print: only compatible with macOS Monterey 12.3 or later.

Perhaps only spatial audio and some camera features won't be compatible with older macOS versions. Waiting for the first reviews.

One of the few grips I have with the more recent Cloudflare Pages is that the build times sometimes are 10x slower than Netlify.

If you need to perform a fast update or rollback, it does take its time.

A video trailer for the book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkskY9bL9Bk

bookdepository.com is also owned by Amazon, since 2011. It's hard to escape their grasp on the market.

I believe you are referring to 10.5 (Leopard), but you are correct. 10.4 (Tiger) was released in 2005.

Do happen to have Adobe software installed? Perhaps something from Creative Cloud. It usually checks for updates at 2am, might be what its turning on your Mac from sleep.

You will have to disabling automatic updates for that not to occur.

Another person here willing to contribute. SequelPro is really the best database client I've used, even though it might be considered 'spartan'/simple.

Panic (http://panic.com) gave the app a new icon, as they are using the source-code in their Coda application (http://panic.com/coda) MySQL client.

Curious that instead of saying 'desktop apps' Steve Jobs refers to them as 'PC apps'. Twice in the same sentence.

There seems to be also another git client coming out this month: http://www.git-tower.com/ — Git Tower

The UI seems a little bit more confusing, not something simple. I still use GitX.

The best answer I could find, along with instruction to do some things, was at the Joyent wiki: http://wiki.joyent.com/node:faq

Regarding specs of the service offered, it just says: I need more memory or disk! "As part of our beta service we have one size Node Smart Machine available. In our tests so far, few developers have hit those limits. If you are running out of disk or memory send a message to support@joyent.com or try running Node on a standard SmartOS Smart Machine."

Here's a photo of Steve Jobs using Concurrence when he returned to Apple, in the late 90s: http://www.allaboutstevejobs.com/pics/life/5-1995-1999/08-pr...

Notice that even if he was at a keynote, selling to the world Mac OS 9 and new iMacs, he personally used a PC laptop running a version of NeXT/OpenStep and the software that was sold to Sun. They eventually hired the same developers to build Keynote.

PHP

I believe the $20 fee is only for access to the beta program. My understanding is that you will have to buy Atlas when the final version comes out, and they haven't disclosed the price of it.

This type of applications reminds me a bit of the Moodstats — http://moodstats.com , from way back in 2001 (if I recall correctly).

Built by the Cuban Council - http://cubancouncil.com - in Macromedia Director.

Apple already allows you, if you are an artist, to submit yourself for consideration to be featured in the iTunes Music Store.

Many, not label signed, indie bands alreay do this. They go through a similar process as the app store aproval, and yes, many are refused.

Not mentioning this process in his post, the author shows how he doesn't know what he is writing about really well.

Apple is already in the CDN business, they invested in Akamai in 1999.

This is what spending money on marketing people with connections gets you.

But not saying this how it should be done, I would probably invest that money in getting a better product and thus users - a better strategy in the long haul.
