Their words
I am writing this post to call attention to what I consider a serious design problem with Apple's most recent OS where it appears that low-level system API such as exec and getxattr now do synchronous network activity before returning to the caller.

Their words
There are too many private functions, writing unit tests for these is a waste of time as they are both simple and using assertions.

Their words
Many advocate dynamic typing because they think static typing automatically require manifest typing. With the auto keyword and use of template functions, C++ is moving further and further away from that dreadful paradigm :)

OmniWebTheir words
Browsing: Mostly OmniWeb (using their Sneaky Peak builds). I am staying with OmniWeb mainly for the search shortcuts, the lack of UI distractions (I have toolbar and such disabled), session restore (by default), and showing open tabs in a list (this scales).

TextExpanderTheir words
TextExpander to give short triggers to all the things I would otherwise find myself repeatedly having to type. I haven't tested any of the competing solutions, as TextExpander works fine for me.

Cinema DisplayTheir words
I have a 30" Cinema Display mounted on an aluminum monitor arm (from Space, but I can't find their online presence). I like the aesthetics of this arm as the mount is through a hole in the table instead of a clamp, so it takes up less desk space than the original holder (and allows greater degree of movement).

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
