Exposed writes "Meaty interview with Rich Wareham who is known to Linux users for his libdvdnav library which is used by Xine and other linux players. On OS X he created Desktop Manager, the GPL solution for VirtualDesktops on the Mac. Highlights are secret APIs in OS X for VirtualDesktops, who steals GPL source and why beginner programmers are at a disadvantage now."
I thought this was going to be an article about overclocking your wristwatch.
I got all excited thinking there was going to be an article about DIY piezoelectric devices
Why is it that the proponents of "one nation under God" are so eager to get rid of "liberty and justice for all"?
Note: THIS IS ON TOPIC. RTFA. KTHX. :)

:( I love my cider dangit. :P

The man doesn't like spirits, but he likes beer.
I've noted, most everyone either likes liquor, liqueur, or beer.
Why is there such a lack of interest in cider? I have my own batch finishing up it's first rack right now, and I'll be moving it to second racking adding honey tomorrow.
The more I've read the history of this country, it seems like the germans moved in and totally obliterated the cider makers and moved in with the beer.
Oh, and love the app, use it all the time.

someone define "nicking" for the, um... curiously imaginative.
Programmers THINK parenthetically. If you see parentheses nested three or more layers deep, you can be sure the text was authored by a code jockey. And the parentheses always match, ensuring the article will compile properly.
If you see programmer text that occasionally uses a semicolon to mark the end of a sentence instead of a period, you can make some educated guesses about the programmer's favorite language.
You may occasionally see crayon scribbled text with line numbers, as penned by a larva geek.

but it was in my book titled "OS X: The Missing Manual" and I can't find it.

If the parentheses are nested six or more layers deep, it could well have been written by a Lisp programmer.
That prints "unphooey". (Yes, there are still unresolved issues having to do with visibility of @_. I'm ignoring that question for the moment. (But note that if we make @_ lexically scoped, those anonymous subroutines can act like closures... (Gee, is this sounding a little Lispish? (Never mind.))))
