"Strongly Anti-Apple Bias here" was something you assumed that may or may not be correct.

As others have said, GitHub does produce a merge commit for the PR. You can checkout that commit like so,

git fetch origin +refs/pull/$N/merge && git checkout FETCH_HEAD

However, in my experience I have seen both cases where GitHub makes new merge commits when the receiving branch changes (current master) and where it does not. Due to externalities in our test suite we sometimes have "current master" break and when we push a fix we sometimes see PRs go green and sometimes they do not. I haven't figured out why we see the two different behaviors.

What advice could one give that wasn't dangerous?

Seems like this is a better source of the article: http://parasail-programming-language.blogspot.com/2013/04/sy...

This looks intriguing. Much more so than Apple Watch. However, the thickness of the band has me concerned. I stopped using UP because the band was thick enough it made my hand fall asleep when typing. (Having to take it off negated one of its main purposes alarm.)

Except Docker said Fig is a dead end and that its functionality would be integrated into `docker` itself.

Your math/model doesn't make sense. Business is never altruistic. Amazon justifies 30% because they are the gatekeeper to millions of Kindle users.

This is probably closer to the truth than either the "ballsy" or "manipulative" arguments. Though, I think this is overly cynical. He just doesn't think it's worth doing support. He has stated numerous times that, if he could, he would rather just refund people'e money than provide any support.

And a lot of data coming from foot and bike that Maps wouldn't provide. I also wondered about submission of POIs though in my experience the portals (POIs) in game are a mixed bag of traditional POIs and more liberally defined POIs, e.g. graffiti, sculptures, small memorials.

"these things came to iOS two, maybe three years ago"

The Notion Ink Adam tablet, from a year or two ago was going to have this feature.

Do you get to use Java 8 in production?

Edit: To clarify I mean if you had a Java X app deployed how hard is it to upgrade to Java 8? One thing I like, maybe naively, about Go is static binaries.

Are there (good) tools to help with refactoring Haskell? To me this seems like one of the benefits of a statically typed language (I've almost entirely worked in Perl).

How do you plan to deploy your backend? Are there tools to do it? Is it just rsyncing a cabal sandbox to another machine? What about compiling and stuff? (I've barely made my way through LYHGG.)

It's not a parenting problem that a human brain develops over many years and is initially incapable of understanding some of the constraints the world places on it.

I enjoy making cartoons with him just as much as jumping in puddles.

Personally I would like to see iAP to be considered like advertising and for it to be more heavily regulated at child audiences. Tired of my 4 year old crying because I won't let him spend another $4 to unlock another widget.

I more strongly object to "Buying" DRM'd content that I don't actually own. It should say "License" or something.

1. iAP are obviously not evil. 2. How the industry uses them probably is. 3. Your game isn't free if you have to pay to enjoy it. 4. "Developers gotta eat" doesn't have anything to do with it.

Seems like it would be easy to make a model that still houses the paper to prevent tipping and would still allow for infrequent loading.

I haven't looked yet but I would like to see experiments that look at how varying amounts of HFCS cause extra weight. It could be that even a small amount (over time or not) damages something and then causes weight gain or it could just be that they have more accessible calories.

I'd also like to see an experiment about the reversibility of the weight loss. If you get them fat on HFCS and then switch to regular sucrose do they end up looking like the rats that had sucrose the whole time.

My thought was that belief is rational and alief is emotional.

There are trade-offs. There is no perfect solution.

libperl-critic-perl is the core Perl Critic. libtest-perl-critic-perl is for using Perl Critic in tests.

It is nice because it is logical and not philosophical. I remember seeing similar discussions regarding mining for terrorist suspects. The only part of this argument that is up for debate is how accurate the techniques are.

One issue with self-hosted is that your ISP may block SMTP or worse they add their customer IP blocks to spam blacklists.

I've found a couple. Doesn't seem like anyone else had the same use case as me but in case someone does...

When: http://when-app.com Doable: http://doableapp.com

When "rips off" Clear's UI and looks interesting. Doable has a very custom UI and looks like it has a couple more features, e.g. statistics. It looks like neither supports date-fixed tasks. If you need both you'll likely have to use Reminders or something in addition to one of these.

That looks really good but I forgot to mention that I am looking for an iOS app.

The key feature I used Astrid for was the ability to have recurring tasks based on the date of last completion instead of fixed intervals. Does anything else out there do that?
