> the bookmarklet seems to skip over paragraphs that have a character they can't represent

It's not that sophisticated. That's just due to the site's css specifying a font for some paragraphs and not others. Not sure the best way to get it to over-ride everything. I suppose it could be updated to crawl through the dom and append style attributes to all tags.

Re accents etc., currently they just show as normal letters (including the accents), which really isn't that bad. Ways to improve the situation could include squeezing some of the accents in by making their slant more vertical. Re ñ and ü, they could maybe be rotated 90 degrees, or maybe put beside the letters rather than on top of them. If there's a demand for this, it wouldn't take me long to throw a couple straw-man versions of the font out there.

OSX Server gained a simple user interface mode but otherwise is basically the same thing and now it's only $50. Just install the Server Admin package. It's exactly the same as 10.6 You can do HTTPD, VPN, POP/IMAP mail server, net boot, software update server, DNS, DHCP, etc. From what I can tell all the same functionality is there. Maybe there are some small things missing?

iSync is a relic of a bygone era that hasn't seen any updates in many years. There are better tools available like The Missing Sync. This company focuses on making a really good tool for the small number of people who need it. Apple can't cater to every niche. If they can't do it right they shouldn't do it at all IMO.

Keychain syncing is one thing I would agree on. I found it very useful. I suspect it will be coming back in the future. Apple may not have been totally comfortable with managing the keychains of 100 million people quite yet.

I don't think these changes have anything to do with iOS-ification or whatever. They were going to happen either way.

APIs Make Mapping and Navigating a City Much More Fun
That is a great point!

An interesting question is, why not just put ALL scripts at the end of the <body> tag, after the HTML of the page has loaded and the CSS probably did as well?

The only thing I can think of is if you have code ON the page which uses these scripts. But why not just put that code at the end of the page, too?

Two concerns.

Say you've made a bunch of apps and you are signing them and one day Apple judges that one of them is nefarious and revokes your developer key. Does that mean that /all/ of your apps will now fail to run in the "signed apps only" mode, rather than only the nefarious one? If so that's more punitive than the iOS App Store, where I've heard of individual applications being taken down but never of a developer itself being black-balled. (Will you be able to apply for another key? Will you have to play identity games to try and pass yourself off as another person?)

Secondly, I've said above that an unsigned app will no longer "run", which is what the language on the Panic blog implies. Will it really check the validity of the developer's certificate every time a program is /run/? Will you be happily using someone's app one day, and then the next day find it doesn't start up anymore because some other app from the same developer which you might have no interest in or knowledge of has been judged to be bad? That doesn't sound very user friendly. I mean, I would have assumed that such a check would only apply at /install/ time, rather than run time, but everything I've read so far seems to be leaning towards the latter.

(Sorry - doing a quick check before posting this of Gruber's article - which I hadn't actually read yet - seems to confirm that both of my concerns are real. Oh my.)
You prude!
The part that I particularly thought was interesting is when he mentioned expanding it to Infrared and Ultraviolet :)
I agree. I'm sure there was a time not too long ago when merchants at local shops would know customers by name and learn their habits, and, possibly, be able to learn intimate details about customers by looking at what products they bought. If the merchant then recommended a product to one such customer based on those observations, that's good business. I suppose the translation from local town merchant to faceless corporation is something of a change (most notably because the corporation may be able to use this information for other/nefarious purposes), but, conceptually, it seems to be replicating the same behavior that doubtlessly has occurred in some form since people began selling products to other people. Instead of arguing that businesses have become more invasive of our privacy, you could also argue that we have simply become more protective (or aware of) our privacy in recent years, which is why this seems like a big problem to a lot of people.
Which, of course, is BS
Indeed, I missed that. The bookmarklet doesn't work for Safari and there's no easy way to test things out. ... A-ha! I can edit the DOM directly and see the updates.

It's implemented as a special font. That means I can put an ñ in the text and see the combination of dotsies and 'normal' text.

I needed to increase the font so I could distinguish the ":" and make out the doties. Even with the font enlargement, it was smaller than the original text. OTOH, I could reduce the normal text by a few font sizes, so the right comparison would require getting practice with both styles and figuring out what font size feels natural, and then make the comparison.

It doesn't seem worthwhile to do that.
> Other factors like the ambiguity caused by sparseness must also be weighed.

The current pattern doesn't suggest weighing of anything. You marched the dots down diagonally, first sets of one, then two, and so on. You mirrored alphabetical order with numerical dot order. You're now trying to justify that after the fact. It's not credible.

It's too bad you're choosing to argue instead of seriously considering the surprisingly thoughtful feedback several others have given you here.

For example, my point about FITALY was obviously not about the stylus movement. The similar dynamic isn't movement distance, the similar dynamic would be a statistical use of the legibility of adjacent dot columns. My point was the research that went into Fitaly:

"These figures are obtained using a corpus of digraph probabilities similar to that described by Soukoreff and MacKenzie (1995)... We have measured the frequency of letter-to-letter transitions for a representative corpus of the English language with several millions of characters. For example, this produces the number of times the letter o is followed by the letter a."

Given a dot matrix, there are a limited number of dot patterns. It's straightforward to measure the legibility of those dot patterns to humans of normal visual acuity (using mechanical turk for example), then to mathematically derive a letter assignment that maximizes legibility across, say, the Brown Corpus.

That would be something interesting to see.

You're continuing to presume there's only one pattern, and it's the one that was picked. To drive home the point that this isn't the case, I'll list some out:

00001 00010 00100 01000 10000 ...
10000 01000 11000 00100 10100 ...
00001 00010 00011 00100 00101 ...
10000 11000 11100 11110 11111 ...
01111 10111 11011 11101 11110 ...
10000 11000 01000 01100 00100 ...
etc.

Now, why is it implausible that one or two of the many possible mappings with a pattern has tradeoffs about as good as the best of the many possible mappings without a pattern? Especially when the former have the pretty significant advantage out of the gate that the pattern makes them easier to remember.

Note that a valid critique of the many possibly mappings without patterns compared to the many possible mappings with patterns is that they are harder to learn.

If you put a lot of weight on the dots visually correlating to the numbers, see A, C, F, G, H, I, K, L, O, P, R, S, V, and X - all have a decent correlation.

Young and Hernandez Help United Beat Ajax 2-0  by David on February 16, 2012
Ashley Young’s first Manchester United goal since September set United on their way to a comfortable win over over Ajax in Amsterdam.

After a poor first-half, United came out and played at a much higher tempo in the second half and Young’s 58th-minute winner came at the end of their most threatening spell, the England man tucking home after Nani’s cross had been deflected into his path.

Seriously, that's awesome.
Yes, iOS and OS X are basically a single OS. Only they support different hardware platforms, run completely different apps, provide completely different SDKs, have completely different UI guidelines, and serve completely different use cases.

Other than that, who could tell the difference?

The reality is that the AppKit (OS X) and UIKit (iOS) SDKs are actually diverging, not coming together. There isn't so much as a hint of traditional keyboard+mouse UI support in the UIKit SDK, which means that iOS apps are not coming to mouse-driven desktop anytime soon. And while many new AppKit features are inspired by iOS (e.g., view-based table views), the AppKit engineers have made no effort to keep those features source code compatible with their iOS counterparts.

Apple has made it clear. These are two different SDKs on two divergent paths.

Wait, what problem does this solve? I have to agree with @nhebb in doubting whether this can be serious.

The idea is provocative, but contains the seeds of its own destruction. If the deficiency in Latin script is that it is (putatively) "optimized" for one function and not another, why make the same (or rather opposite) mistake on purpose?

What do you mean? I thought it was spot on.
Thanks for the explanation, but it's hardly "settled".

I don't use an iPhone, but I imagine if it's like other browsers, there's some setting that says:

[x] Accept cookies from sites
[ ] Accept third party cookies

When I don't check the second box, it doesn't mean "Don't accept cookies, unless condition X is true", e.g. the web site implemented a popular hack. It means really don't accept third party cookies, and I don't give a shit if the +1 button breaks.

It doesn't sound like Safari's behavior on the hidden forms is intentional. It sounds like a bug, but it's irrelevant either way. I hope Apple patches this soon and forces people to opt in to third party cookies.

I'm glad that they actually set the default to reject them (a funny contrast to the address book policy). Firefox allows third party cookies by default because I always have to turn it off when setting up the browser on a new PC.

I'm (legitimately) curious which proprietary programs you think are indispensable? Really the only one I can name is Photoshop/Illustrator, and for those I think people use Wine.
The main reason this happens is that most MVC platforms generate pages piecemeal, say for example you are generating a 'product' page:

It has a 'template' that contains your header,footer and scripts that everyone relies on.

Then the product piece may also need a script or 2 and finally it may need to add some dynamic love to the page like say: $(myMagicHelper(779,'magic');), in general people are used to just inlining these kind of mini-scripts close to the bit that generates the product html. It can be migrated to a system that defer generates it in the footer, but usually would involve a larger amount of change (at least on projects I worked on). I guess this trick saves you a bit of time migrating some inline scripts to the bottom.

I thought this was going to be about...

Why?
Safari's default behavior is to Accept Cookies: 'From visited'. This prevents 3rd party iframes from saving cookies without a workaround. However, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and IE (with proper P3P) all allow 3rd party iframes to save cookies by DEFAULT.

This leaves us with the choice of either using the workaround, or not providing a consistent experience that users expect.

If Safari worked like every other major browser in this regard-- allowing users to OPT-IN to the stricter cookie policy--then WSJ would be right in nailing Google for working around it.

I think Google did nothing wrong. They worked around a browser's non-standard default behavior, which is something we all do multiple times a day. Only when non-standard behavior is OPT-IN is there willful disregard for the user's intent in employing a work-around.
If that is the case, that's actually incredibly useful.

good point. The bad guys are tenacious.
"Chrome seems to be able to do it under 10ms, IE9 and Opera at around 20ms and Firefox at 80ms (though I probably have a plugin that is causing that pain). IE7 at over 100ms.

I'd be very interested in seeing some more concrete benchmarks for this.

Twitter integration will bring close to nothing, because most of the things we do happen in browsers nowadays, and you have tons of plugins or addons to do the job of integrating Twitter or Facebook without leaving your browser and it works just as well.

I can see the need to integrate twitter directly in a phone OS, where you can share pictures directly as you take them with the camera software, but on desktop it does not really have much practical use. And Facebook integration in Win8 ? To further enhance the destruction of privacy and blur the lines between what's on your desktop and what's available to everyone...? I do not see this as adding much value either.
