Knuth 3:16 (2002) 10 years ago

Probably Donald Knuth's book "3:16 Bible Texts Illuminated" where Knuth goes through chapter 3, verse 16, of most books in the Bible.

While we’re at it, Knuth has also released a book (which is just transcripts of 5-6 lectures) wherein he discusses the 3:16 project: "Things a Computer Scientist Rarely Talks About"

Not quite true. Apps aren’t allowed to use private API’s, but some apps still do.

Because as soon as Apple publish something as an API, they can't change the method because third party apps could now be depending on it. As long as the API is private and undocumented, Apple can change the method from release to release as they see fit.

Really? It seems to me that most articles conclude that it wasn’t iCloud that was hacked but the celebrities.

Apple also released a press release[1] saying that they “have discovered that certain celebrity accounts were compromised by a very targeted attack on user names, passwords and security questions, a practice that has become all too common on the Internet. None of the cases we have investigated has resulted from any breach in any of Apple’s systems including iCloud® or Find my iPhone.”

I visited Google Dublin last year and found that they still used the old beveled Google-logo for e.g. letters and papers. Not the slightly beveled logo from 2010-2013, but the old one from 1999-2010.

I've got it working by downloading the referenced mov-file, with the QuickTime UserAgent, and opening it in VLC:

    $ curl -A QuickTime/7.6.2 -O http://p.events-delivery.apple.com.edgesuite.net/14poiunaeporfnsvpobjuanefvpjb6a/refs/14pijbefvoihbfva6_sl_ref.mov

The new part is that it doesn't require a membership to the Mac Dev Program, but is open to everyone with a free Apple Account.
