What annoys me about Apple, is that clearly their time is valuable to them, but us paying Developer Program members are forced to waste days worth of business hours hunting through their appallingly maintained "documentation". And that really pisses me off.


The Art of Unix Programming looks interesting, thanks!

The author attempts to contrast web scraping and web crawling and gets it very wrong. This is what it actually is: web scraping - I download the content of a webpage or select webpages, web crawling - I download the content of the entire internet (or part thereof). How he can say that someone who's crawling the internet and building a search index with the contents of the downloaded data isn't also scraping the web, makes no sense.


I've been looking for e-mail hosting to go along with a domain name purchase, without the file and site hosting I'll just use other services like GitHub for. Does anyone know any better or comparable offers?


There's zoho.com, $1 per month per account.


Elaine Shannon wrote the book "Hunting LeRoux" https://www.elaine-shannon.com/works-1 I haven't read it but she has been on reddit discussing why she thinks Paul Le Roux is NOT Satoshi Nakamoto https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/bp3uug/the_unanimous_o...


Great find.

"In 2009, when bitcoin emerged, he was busy launching multiple ventures As I detailed in Hunting LeRoux, among these were small arms sales, trading in hard drugs, trading in smuggled gold, building a submarine, devising a new missile navigation system for Iran and setting up a new base in Somalia, where he intended to make himself into a white warlord, expanding his arms business into an Amazon-for-arms platform with fortified bases, his own militia, barracks, warehouses for arms, an airstrip, a seaport and so on. Significantly, he discovered oil on the land he controlled but declined to drill it, saying it would take too long to turn a profit."


"saying it would take too long to turn a profit."

If that's true, he'd definitely not want to do an uncertain and long play like Bitcoin. He'd be more likely to do Silk Road or something.


Call it Sh*tFaced.


I’ve read that! It’s excellent.


I like it, but I would ditch the super heavy fonts. They are needlessly difficult to read. You only have to look at the Governance page to see that you’ve gone a few weights to far with the font choice.

Coincidentally I do something similar for Rust, but in not nearly as grand a fashion... https://github.com/rayascott/fearless-rust-bloggers
